sounds like a vac leak check all small pipes are connected to the plenum
another good way to test is
spay wd40 or equivelent round the inlet ( as a mist say 15cm away not directly on ) and if there is a leak the engine will suck the oil in and make it bog slightly
ihave always found g3 to be spot on if you in the right cases and by some one eho knows what there doing.. but if definatly can go through very fast if left to it
still waiting to find a wiring loom for the right price so in the meantime i stuck the dash and a few other bits in to see what it would look like built up. gotta say i love it !
bought a RMD steering wheel , and 172 mani think i can pair the mani and rear section up fairly easy just need to...
just some pics of it unmasked , looks loads better and i think the white against the blue really goes well. i just need to find a full loom cheap then i can get some of the interior back in and built up.
a little update, finally got most of it finished and a s**t load of silicons in the paint . god knows were they all came from as it was panel wiped 4 times .. could of been the diesel tank but its mostly sorted now . just got roof to finish as i ran out of paint and panel windows to re do but...
may not be the best but what i use and works well...
some kind of solvent based cleaner , forgot name (dont get on hoses as it marks them )
tfr this adds abit of a shine to the paint and plastics
then tyre shineor a silicone based gel on any hoses and blast plastics etc
will save a few quid.. its ideal for me as il be fully rebuilding what ever engine goes in mine. but for some thats a problem so its worth the extra for it to come built
i have been trying to look into this myself . if were both on about the same engine (130bhp) then from what i can work out there identical apart from the sport obvs having vvt better manifold and inlets etc which would account for the extra power variation between the two .
im not sure about...
a normal power run will indicate if its down on power . but you would be better to pay the extra and be told how its running mechanically not just power wise . may be a dody injector etc .
bit stupid but are you sure its not just yuou gettin used to the car ? even the weather will make a...
ahh man its a right b**ch, the head lining takes about 5 mins better to do it with 2 people tho .
as for the sound deadening its a bit of a pain i used a heat gun and scraper. then s**t loads of thinners and raggs.
we on about back bumper or front ?
if its back it fits straight on.
if its the front bumper then you will need..
bumper, wings, skirts ( and a back bumper to make it look right)
havnt had alot of time recently to do much on this but here are a few more pics of were the car stands now .
also out of work again so hope this project doesnt come to a stop.
finally got all the dash and loom out then gave it a quick clean , now will be hoovered out then panel wiped...
