Im almost certain there aren't any leaks but i'll keep looking. It got to 4k and then misfired there :S Anyone know what would happen if engine oil got into the engine, smells funky and smoking a bit..... It was courierd with the oil in and spilt everywhere, thinking some may have it got...

As above, just got the new engine plumbed in (minus the coolant system, wanted to check it ran first) and it starts normal then is reving quite high around 2k and then it starts to climb and I shut it off at 4.5k before I s**t my pants. Pretty sure there aren't any air leaks or anything, all...

How long did you go at it with the gun? Mine didnt take that much to get it off and it was pretty much welded on. I agree with the bar between the bolts and use the biggest breaker bar you can get your hands on. You're an animal though Daniel, mere mortals wont be bending wishbones :rasp:

Ah ok thats not what I would call head bolts, none of those about but they are cheap as chips

£50+ odd for the headbolts iirc . I thought they were hardened though, must have done well to break them. I probably have some about you can have for a few quid if you want

Re: F**K F**K F**K Heads gone!Valve timing unit help needed. Put up where you're from mate

Re: F**K F**K F**K Heads gone!Valve timing unit help needed. LOL they are charging a grand for labour!?!? Yeah i'd be doing it myself at that, plenty of us that could talk you through it

Re: F**K F**K F**K Heads gone!Valve timing unit help needed. Get another engine for less than 1/3 of that and stick it in. Job done!

Works fine for me :)

I dont have the middle small green one or the bottom left big fuse in my fusebox and everything is fine. Always has been

Pretty sure mine is the same as your first pic. Yeah mine was completely dead. I'll have a search for the thread I put up originally http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=412613 http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=397162 This is what happened to me but the same symptoms...

I'm not 100% but I had a similar issue with mine with the same symptoms as you are having but it was a 20/30 amp fuse that was causing the hassle. I traced it back to a leak getting into the brake light connection on the spoiler and would happen everytime I pressed the brakes. Everything would...

Fred will either know a price or be able to quote a price for him doing it i'd say

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project Nice job Jord, they don't look that bad there tbh. Definately need to get a welder too! :)

Just get the garage to go in with a borescope instead of stripping the head. With mine when I took off the lower inlet you could see one of the valves was clearly doubled over in half, might be similar with yours. complete PITA and might be better off with another engine depending on what they...

Looks like 2 screws at below where you may have to remove the trim below and 2 above and definately have to remove that or maybe even the radio

Ok so you have power getting to places. Have you checked the voltage yet? Pretty sure theres one fuse that runs both the dash lights and the fuel pump

Re: someph-ing different........... Mmmmm yes I like that Fred, nicer than the other brackets

Re: someph-ing different........... Is that a coilpack tray made to bolt to the side of the block Neil?

Yeah you'll be fine. I havn't seen a car lower than Foxy's, if you are still unsure throw him a msg and see what he says
