well atm im just trying to get the engine running in the ph1 to make sure its ok after the compression test. In the end the engine will go in a ph2 1.2 16v.

2.0ltr (172 cup) engine fitted to a ph1 1.2 clio atm

:bump:

Looking at trying to get this engine started this weekend the problem is it doesnt actually have any fuel pipes atm. Has anyone got a piping diagram or can give me a quick run through of what goes to where etc? Another thing, is the fuel pump next to the actual fuel tank? thanks for the help...

Obviously im looking at doing an engine conversion to my 1.2 to a 2.0ltr but only being 17 (18 in march) insurance is going to kill me. Im just looking for some information on insurance 1 . Would my converted car be classed as the same insurance group as a standard 172 or would it be more...

1. The light stays on constantly 2. Just checked the driveshafts and the 172 cup driveshaft does have ABS rings :S

aye going to check the compression and oil pressure within the next few days, fingers crossed :D

came with the loom and everything, the engine is turning over its just not firing up which is the imoboliser's fault as the light is always on the dash. very pleased with the purchase :D

I am looking at doing an oil pressure test, where is the sender unit and what is the thread into the block? thanks carl

yeah engine is going in my rep later on in the year after its had a bit of a clean.

8 hour round trip today to pick up my new purchase :) Also has Full leather and alcantara interior, new ph2 dash including ph2 steering wheel and much more. Problem is the car doesnt move (incomplete conversion) and the engine won't be in there for very long but not bad for £550...

Hi travelled an 8 hour round trip to essex today to pick up my new car, well engine :P Now i have more idea what the key problems are and need a few questions answered :) 1 . The engine is turning over but the fuel pump aint kicking and and there is no source of power to the coil pack, is this...

havent actually tested the engine myself just words from the guy who i am buying it from. If its not sparking what could be the problem? HT's,spark plugs? thanks carl

what colour code did you use for the anthracite?

yeah thats the plan :)

is there anyway to by-pass the imoboliser so that i can test the engine to make sure it works or is there any other way to test the engine? as its firing up but not sparking. thanks carl

oh i can buy an ecu/uch/key etc from mat for 150 quid +vat....would that be cheaper than getting them unlocked and recoded?

any other idea's about the imobiliser/ecu? can you get it all re-programmed including the key to match or will i have to buy a new ecu etc all matching from the same car? /carl

will be around 2k-2.2k :( not going to fit it till april/may next year

just measured exhaust its around 2-2.5 inch diameter cat back. Would 2 inch diameter be too narrow? :(

yeah thats includes everything dutty

not finished project. crashed the car with the 1.2 in and bought the engine/gearbox etc for 1.4k a few months back

i think the system ive got is 2.5 inch cat back so could i just replace from the cat forward?

Just bought an engine from ebay ready to go into my 1.2. Have a couple of questions relating to the engine first though :) 1 . The engine is not sparking up, seems like the key isnt sync'd with the ECU or an imobilizer problem. One choice is to buy a new ecu,uch,keys etc.....any other ideas...

Before : After:

can't do the photoshop but would suggest keeping them anthracite :)

ive got a few photos such as:

thanks :) was abit dirty mind
