Only needs one plugged in, did it deffo work on the 172? Could be a faulty ignitor, ballast or bulb, moreso if it got knocked a bit before being fitted to yours.

I tend to bend the pins on the car side so they are tighter.

Was good to meet you too, Don't apologize, I wasn't awake, and had to head off to test ride a motorbike :D, Will have to pop down the unit one day and meet everybody at last.

Waved goodbye to the cup Today.. And as some of you may have noticed, I got the Inferno running, right before the lads turned up to collect the shell, won't be the last CS sees of the little Cup either. Now I need to finish the inferno, and get the DCi rebuilt, eventually!

I hate those manual tensioners with a passion. Fit it aircon and have an auto tensioner!

Saw you on your way in, but didn't react quick enough to wave.

All fixed and running now then? New ECU set sort it finally? Is a brilliant turn around, and awesome to see my old interior again :D

Definitely. Theres a large ride happening on the 5th of May, thats the aim. Loved my ride today.

Was good to catch up with some people, and meet some new people. Shame I had to head off, but had a motorbike to test ride!

:D Cheers bud. Is the way forward, My 65, producing 76hp is awesome. You do indeed, your car must be reliable atm! Sometimes I do... Inferno springs to mind! Yeah I need to get it stripped further, injectors appear okay so thats a start. Will hopefully get it sorted ASAP. Will check this...

So, I should have been getting on with the Inferno this afternoon, but I decided to play with the new DCi. No pics of stripping it, as I just wanted to get on with it. But, half way through stripping it I found the timing to be about 120degrees out, suggesting the crank pulley has slipped, or...

PM me an offer, I could have it ready in a week.

Well I haven't finished the Inferno, Been too busy to even get near it. But this morning, I added another one to the fleet lol. meekings14's old DCi. Its most likely requiring a new engine, as its flood damaged, but we'll see, already compression tested it, completely nothing lol. It got a...

This, I did a cambelt, aux belt and service in around 4 hours, inc breaks.

Don't know how I missed this! Vid is nasty, can see exactly what you were saying though. Subscribed!

Its not that hard to do at all, I'd happily help if you're local. Drop the subframe entirely is my advice.

Actually found this funny. Doing its everytime you visit your girlfriend? Mental. It could take an hour to raise & lower all of them. Besides, tracking will always be out, so you'll be ripping through tyres. you need air ride.

Check the amount of teeth too. Can get the wrong amount of teeth and that'd cause same issue.

Pretty standard, bend the bumper bracket as mentioned, or wait for it to wear away, although I cut mine down slighty to stop some rubbing. Its not going to do any major damage, it is just plastic.

Pretty much all 172's have those plugs. Looms are prepped for ESP, Cruise and manual headlight adjustement. To fit Cruise you only need that switch, squib and steering wheel buttons (plus airbag, or cut it). ESP is more involved though.
