He has a 1.4 though smartarse!! they use different plugs!
I always thought NGKs where best, until i did 40 mile with my ngks in with the engine getting worse, then i went into work (renault) and all the techys where telling me NGK will ruin the coils! and they even had letters from Renault...
I got a set of NGK plugs sat on my windowsill next to my old coil, plugs have only got bout 4o mile on them, and they burnt the pack out :( got renault ones in now, which i believe are champion!
there are a list of things that kill the packs
1. unplugging HT leads from spark plug with the engine running! pi$$es the engine management off and damages the coil packs, disconnect injector!!
2. jump starting other people with engine running, (coltage drop and spike destroys them)
3. NGK...
http://www.beaconrallykarts.co.uk/prices.php These are also somewhere to try timmay, this ones off road, but really good! have organised a few partys here! doing a full race meeting is superb fun, but its £50 a head and min 12 people, but you have 4 heats, and the winner gets a trophy!!
You have to rotate the anti tamper device on the back of the cover to get it off. Its a gold wheel with holes in it, if you use a mirror to see down the back youll find it, use a small allen key to rotate it undone, takes about 7-8 mins of undwinding but be patient it will come!!
Not many...
Just use white spirit, Meths or the best one is lighter fluid! all these will remove it! even petrol! Heat it up with a haridryerfirst to make it peel easy! but be aware that heating a localised spot on your window very hot may crak the glass, so prefebly do it on a warm day!
Took an hour and half-ish to do mine, (grey one in background) and i said to laura prob only take an hour now i know what to do! but her nuts and bolts where so siezed and rusty it just took forever!
if you paint, and carefully put wheel back on ,then do otherside, put wheel on, go in for hour, then once touch dry, go out and do an emergency stop they should be fine!! done mine many a times and thas what i do!!
I am bored of my clio and so have decided with Lozw to do a project. We both decided that we love the 1.2 engine and so have decided to do a swap from
