back in stafford tommorow, hope i'm not greeted to find a ph1 on fire in town!!!

electrical contact cleaner on the connections and the earth may fix it

i think it requires a specific ecu, 52 plate onwards had it some 02 had it also, but that is for a 172 proper not sure about the cup

NGK plugs definetly required for these engines, designed to specifically to work with them iirc.

nope its the same as the 182 cup a/c panel, therefore has dials with a/c button.

i dont think they have a external temp guage or a trip computer

spoiler is 6 screws in the top of the boot lid then there are 2/3 plastic clips holding it in place, spoiler light held in by 2 bolts

i am guessing you were in the right hand lane turning left on a roundabout exit with a merge in bit, i hate it when people try that on me but getting out of the car is going too far let alone the dent and the punch!

looks good, what exterior differences are there to a real 197?

get a ph1 172!

my 172 does 35 mpg with enthusiastic driving

Thats good to know then, thanks for your help :D

just buy a ph1 172, good mpg and loads of fun, not a boring diesel!

thanks, not to bothered about cosmetic stuff really, first car an all. Is there anything mechanically that goes wrong with them?

dont have to be, but if they havent been changed why not do them both. the safest way to do it, i believe, is to remove the suspension strut i didnt and it was a nightmare to do, i am sure someone will tell you how to do it properly

A red mk1 clio, only 2 miles away from me aswell! may go and have a look tommorow i think, anything to look out for on them? http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201135413172462/sort/locasc/usedcars/model/clio/make/renault/radius/1500/postcode/b495ha/page/1?logcode=p

yep, can be a nightmare to change, was for me anyway :o

will cost you about £13 for the part from a motor factors, just make sure you get the 12mm one, i asked for that one and they still gave me a 10mm, i only noticed when the car was in bits on the drive, ended up drilling the holes bigger and re-using the bolts so not the end of the world.
