My cup has just randomly developed a misfire and wondering where to start really. A while back it cut out and wouldn't restart which turned out to be dirty connections at the 5 pin relay which I sorted and has been fine since. It's also had a new TDC sensor and the plugs were changed 15k ago...
I've read a couple of posts which say just get them from any motor factors, having been to 3 who all say dealer part only (who want £20 for it) where can I find this? A relay should only be a couple of quid!
It's a 172 cup..
New coil pack installed - no difference. Euro car parts also gave me the wrong (old style) tdc sensor and mine has the blue connector so need to get from Renault and try that. I can hear the fuel pump prime as well. I've pulled the 3 black relays and cleaned them up too.. Any other suggestions...
No, sorry I must have not explained it very well.. Starter was cranking engine over perfectly plenty of battery juice and everything, just not firing that's all :)
Cheers
My cup has been great, no issues or anything however earlier today it was turning over for a good while and just wouldnt fire! It took a good 3 or 4 tries and then spluttered and came to life. It's been fine since!
Any ideas where to start with this one?
Cheers

Can anyone help me? I think I posted in the wrong section originally..

Hi a friend of mine has a 2002 Clio which for a while has had a problem where it will randomly stall at junctions and the warning light always comes on on the dashboard. So far it's been to a couple of garages including Renault but after replacing lots of things the problem still persists...
stick with the dizzy you have and use megajolt. Or if you can use some of the functions of megasquiret i beleive such as throttle position sensor. Get in touch with Bill Shurvington, he is your man!
No, I have a megane 225 now, but I built a VX 2000cc XE powered westfield and had to convert the injection system on that to run carbs and converted to points based dizzy.
My conversion was to get rid of the electronic distributor and ECU off the vauxhall and replace with ignition set up...
If you have electronic distributor then you will need either a points based distributor system that will fit, or you can buy a standalone engine management system such as weber alpha, or MBE etc.
A good one (on function and due to the fact its a DIY kit is cheap) is Megajolt. This will...
A friends clio 1.2 16v (2003) has just shown a warning light which the manual says is a toxic gas warning light. Any ideas what could cause this, is it safe to drive and also are renault the only place who could hook their box of tricks in to see what the problem is or do the likes of the AA/RAC...
Re: My GF's 172 is slow as f**k :(
Ive had 2 phase 2 172s now, 1st was 2 years old with 24k on it and one I have no is nearly 6 yrs old with 45k on on it. The one I have now would have left my other for dead. The 1st one had no noticeable power increase at 5k revs at all, the one I have now...
I can vouch for that (I dont earn that much like!) couple of guys here regularly bring home £25k-£50k in 1 month. most months though are around £5-6k. Tons of people here earning over £90-100k PA.
We get our salary (which is good!) plus 13% of our sales.
IT sales of no interest to you? I used to work at Nortel a few years ago as a CVX/Passport commissioning engineer and was earning 28k at 19 (this was a good few years go Im 26 now!) but got made redundant in 2000. That was the best thing that happened to me, was completely fed up of working away...
I used to have a cupra 20VT which made 220BHP and 265 ftlbs and it was very quick, standard k03 turbo runs out of steam quickly and dies off at about 5k revs. I had brembo brakes with 303mm rotors so it did stop well too. Handling was shocking on std suspension though. Sold it to get a delta evo...
