how bad? Because as i know it, a little is just due to unburnt fuel, but loads would be headgasket....

It appears that you have to cut the old connector off and wire in this one. I believe the problem was with the connector failing. someone else back me up please?

throttle bodies are shite! Nah, just kidding my good friend. I always said one day I would have throttle bodies just like Roamer's old car. I love the noise from them! The turbo came along so will be no more.:o

I will be paying 572 ( thought it would be 750 tbh) for next year on my 182 turbo....:D

lol.

michelin pilot exaltos on the rear and dunlop sport 3000 on the front.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150161781805&sspagename=ADME:X:RTQ:UK:11 The seller tells me all 172 come from the factory with a sunroof!:eek: Notice there are no engine pictures?

sorry not gonna be much help, but i got my renewal through today.....£572!!!! Thats with £250 excess fully comp, 3 yrs NCB 26years old.....:rasp:

tbh doing it with soaking wet clothes might recreate the faraday cage effect and the path of least resistance would be the water. Correct me if I'm wrong.

so many experts on here.lol. Well I'm an Engineer too.:rasp: Frequency has a big thing to do with this. so 50,000V across 1Mohm (resistance of human body across the arms) = 50mA If this was ac then I would most probably be dead. Funny thing is as soon as I did it I wanted another go.....

:) and an angle grinder....

no, some filters have a cavity on the middle for increased surface area.

some cone filters have an opening at the end, so maybe this works. sucks some air in from engine on idle and has air forced in while moving. that is assuming there is an opening on the end.

yeh....doh;)

ok so what potential would the outer casing of the lead connected to the coil pack be in relation to a chassis ground?

yes frequency. As it was dc, a larger current would have been needed than for ac, due to the freuquency..... what do you do for a living then?

Its not really the current that kills its the frequency i think. I deal with high voltage stuff all day at work, so why the fook did i touch it.....?

I think it did for a little bit. I feel a bit funny now.

My f**king chest is killing.....:dapprove: Was trying to see if leads were loose.All i did was touch the rubber casing then wallop!!!!! Is this normal....lol.:S

didnt you just have major work done at yozzasport?

tbh if you look at specialist insurers small print you will see that they wont cover mods either. Lets say a renault exhaust cost 500 and the aftermarket on costs 300 then in their eyes you owe them 200....

Re: 50% complete 172RWD! How are you cooling the engine? Could you leave radiators up front and run the coolant pipes along where the exhaust was?

might do, just got a few annoying things to sort on the car. Got a horrible knocking from the exhaust or engine mounts and lack of cash.lol. I don't get to go on any joy rides any more.:dapprove:

DUDE! This awsome, take your time with it, be patient and dont give up. It will be worth it. :) Then source another engine, turbo that and stick it in the front!! 2.0 litre turbo twin engine!!!!!

i have one fitted to my car, there is a huge kick at 7.5k.

I would love to see you get owned..;)

sounds like mine from cold, always goes after about a minute of driving.

sorry not an answer, but a question. How can you tell if it is two cylinders?

probably quite slow i imagine. The renault sports however are around the 7 second mark.

I've just bought a pc, but doing my car first.:rasp: I'll be real cheap too untill i get the hang of it.lol.
