My wishbone balljoint went today and my wheel "fell off" and f****ed my wing Iv just gone to remove the balljoint piece to put in the new 1 and iv go the part off the wishbone that is held on with 2 bolts but when i went to remove the piece in the hub (the pin type piece) i cannot get it out...

cant help you all that much mate but i think you can run a clio box, from what iv heard the gardest part of the job is the wiring! good luck!

well i smacked in new plugs 2day but due to hoispital appointment never got around to getting the leads on! Will have to wait till the morning to see whats going on!

could this be causing the misfire?

bump?

I just changed my plugs and leads to try and solve a misifirng problem and there was quite alot fo oil in my spark plug wells? Whats the deal with this? Rocker gasket? Could this have been whats causing the misifirng below 2.5k revs?

ok mate, maybe there is a circlip on there ill have a closer look once the part arrives this morning.

Iv changing my cap and rotor arm today on my valver and i have got the cap off but cannot really see a way or removing the rotor arm other then perhaps pulling it off? Any ideas?

Iv just whipped my dis cap off and i cannot see any metallic bits in the corners at all!!! Surely i should be able to see soemthing? And the rotor arm contacts looked fooked and black!

bump?

having this same prob on my valver.....

Basically up to 2.5k revs it can misfire and judder with no power then suddenly it will stop and the car goes as normal. Has been getting graduallty worse for last week and now does it alot more then before, although it doesnt always do it :S. Mates reckon i should check my leads/plugs/dizzy...

as above!

Nope, it isnt the ecu moving about causing the knocking! :mad:

Pleeeeeeeeease let this be the problem! :rolleyes:

no worries mate!

is the valver ecu in the scuttle panel? Because when i was trying to secure my car jack in there yesterday the bracket that the jack goes onto was totally loose!? Please let be my problem! I will be checking this first thing in the morning!

where is it?

sounds like a dodgy cable, good luck replacing it! lol

Where is the ECU bracket mate? This is on a valver btw in case you didnt know!

thanks mate, ill get onto that list this week! :)

they seemed fine tbh! unsure on tyre pressures will have to check that! Surely tyre pressure wouldnt cause clunking though?

Enfield mate! Would really appreciate it!

What part of it mate? Why do you think this?

right guys iv put it all back together and made sure its all tight, dont think the top was properly tightened up before, not too sure, but anyway its still clunking! :mad: Can anyone please give me a list of things i can go through and check 1 at a time, this is starting to get annoying now...

no? they is no stains or anything on it.

Iv just had 1 of my front struts apart and have put the spring back in etc and compressed it to get nut on but i need to know how tight i do it up (the nut that holds the whole thing together) Im guessing i just do it up as far as it will go and make sure its tight? Also once iv done that and...

iv checked the ball joints but there doesnt seem to be any play! :S

see other thread! :)

following on form my other thread about the dogbone (which i have now replaced) ok iv check the ball joints by trying to wobble the wheel at 12 and 6 position. no play at all. BUT iv noticed that the drivers side strut, you can grab the wheel/hub and move the whole thing up a down, by maybe a...
