yep, I needed the mechanical throttle

I'm currently using that as my feed (vacuum) to the brake servo.. what does this control valve look like? and how does it work? thanks for your help with this

it's just really rough, I'm running a standalone emerald setup.. I just can't seem to get an idle.. I think I just need to play around with figures a little more as I didn't really have any base values

so it has no baring on the idle? currently I just let the one on the back of the engine go to a filter(shown as number 3 on the pic below?

hi there, I've fitted a ph1 throttle body to my ph2 as it sits in a kit car, the body is actually fitted upside down for space reasons.. does anyone know what the pipe does and where it goes as I've actually taken it off and blanked it, but I have a feeling it maybe essential for idle? can...

Could anyone tell me which is the feed the pink wire or the green.. many thanks as I'm wiring it up to a standalone ECU.. and to double check the turn on point is 1800rpm any help appreciated

Just realised I'm running the older version is it possible to activate the vvt from the Emerald vr1.1 r7 ?

ahh I better re-plumb it then :) thanks for that!

thanks.. it's normally on the bottom of the throttle body.. (on a phase 1) probably not normally in view.. With no.2 if that's the brake servo what is this one for (which I've plumbed to the brake servo.. have I done this by mistake :eek: ?

Hi.. I'm back with a few questions about piping up my engine.. any help appreciated

Hi there, I'm running or should I say planning on running an Emerald ECU on a relativity standard 172 engine. It's actually a phase 2 engine with a phase 1 throttle body with a considerable shorter exhaust (see picture below). I bought my ECU from ebay :rolleyes: last year and when I finally...

I paid £51.50 inc delivery for mine from cliospares on ebay if that helps

so I can just ask for a throttle position sensor plug at renault? will they sell me just a plug? - thanks for the help

here's a pic if it helps :)

Does anyone know where I can buy it with the pins or what to ask for at Renault as they're usually funny if I'm either not precise or have the chassis number Also I'm wiring up the alternator and can only work out there is only two wires positive (to battery/starter) and a small two pin plug...

excellent thanks

Is it the one nearest the gearbox or the one nearest the cambelt? many thanks

excellent, although I've just found a local supplier that has a 350kg sealy stand he said will be in stock before the weekend for £34 ..bargin :) thanks for the responses

Just about to get an engine stand to make changing my sump a little easier and saw one from machine mart rated at 220kg, there's a sealey one for 350kg but it's the difference of being able to collect one on the way home from work or not :)

yes please.. I'll drop you a private message :)

I'm up in Nottingham.. would you consider posting? how much would you want for it? cheers Andrew

it's a clio 172 phase 2 engine

Just found out today that the engine I bought has a bodged repair and it's leaking like a good'un.. bringing my project to a halt :( ...Is the sump the same as any other renault? or do I have to go in search of a clio ph2 specific oil sump? any help appreciated Andrew

fantastic just what I was after.. and thanks for the decode it did help :)

Apologies for this but I'm new to the clio engine, would it be possible for someone to list what each of these sensors are.. and if you have any addition info like colour of wire size etc I would be most appreciative many thanks Andrew

does anyone know if the phase 1 fuel rail is the same on another car like a peugoet? or where I can get hold of one?

yes :) I have a few more pics of the original conversion on my site.. www.gomodit.co.uk I decided to go for the 172 for a bit of economy, reliablity and a just a change.

Ahh.. I just assumed a bit was missing.. I'll look more closley when I get home, although as you say it'll probably be blank.

does anyone have a picture of a phase 1 and 2 fuel rail.. I think the phase 1 has a regaulator where as a phase 2 does not.. but I'm confused slightly as on mine (phase2) it looks like it has some kind of regualtor on it.. any help apreciated

how do I know if it's a 730 or 830? I know it's a phase two engine.. Also does anyone running Emerald have a base map for the 172 I could start with? Any help appreciated Andrew
