Re: F*cking gay valver!
We tried the coil on my car when the engien was still in and it fired. So should be okay. Going to check tomorrow though anyway. Fuel pump relay is fine. Took the fuel line off the injector rail and spratyed petrol everywhere :rasp:
Re: F*cking gay valver!
No mate. SO we ripped it out in the end and stuck Amir's engine in it today but no success :( Rather odd we think as we proved that the loom from the dash would start Amir's engine when it was in his car.
Re: F*cking gay valver!
Cheers guys. Pretty sure we connected all the sensors and earths up. It's too dark now. Gonna have another check tomorrow. Say if we eliminated the engine and engine loom and dashboard loom out of the equation. What else could possibly stop it from firign other than the...
All in a hard days work. Went to Amirs this morning and we used my engine crane to lift the engine out of his car (bye bye storm trooper). We then took the engine back to mine where we changed the clutch and gearbox.
Then we put it into the tungy and started connecting everything up. By 1:30...
Get off your lazy ass :rasp: Me and Amir have taken out/put in enough 16v engines now. We can have it done in about 2-3 hours weather and light depending lol. We should start up our own business doing everyone's facking gearboxes, clutches and timing belts lol.
Could be the cambelt idler bearing or tensioner bearing mate. Reason I say this is because my valver engine is in bits at the minute and both of mine seem noisy. The engine seemed a bit noisy when it was in and running so puttibng it down to one of these. Probably the idler.
For a valver. Don't know if this is the correct name but that's practically what it is anyway. It's pressed into a bracket that sits behind the cambelt rear cover. It just seems a bit noisy and I want to replace it whilst it's in bits so that the engine runs nice and smooth when back together...
Sorry to hear this fella :(. But pretty silly thing leaving your pride and joy in a car park in the middle of Bristol don't you think? Hope you've laern't a lesson.
Bump to an old thread. After the oil seal leaked again I am having another attempt at sorting it as I've had to remove the engine to replace the gearbox anyway. Here's some pics. I think I can answer our own wrong doings. As the seal wasn't as deep as the original my dad knocked it all they way...
Good thread that mate. Hope some people read and learn from your experience. Lots of people have been there but at the end of the day you throw away a lot of money and don't increase the value of the car.
I had this on my valver. Gearbox went a few days later. Well I say it went, more like the whining got a lot louder and I soon noticed that a whole had appeared in the bottom of the box causing it to lose all its oil.
I've been hovering over this idea for a few weeks. Been wanting an Xbox 360 but can get a PS3 imprted for about £337 I think it was? Decided to stick with neither atm due to finances :(.
