thinking about this a wee bit more, if u have had starter and alt replaced, that involves both sides of the engine - back n front.. so it would be worth checking carefully for any loose sensor wiring or pipes / hoses.. could just be something displaced. Joe.

Wongy M8. sounds like fueling, not ignition here. or to be more precise, sounds like, from the description u have given, an induction leak or ISCV hunting / not working.. More than likely a pipe come detatched from the inlet manifold, check all breather pipes etc. also, check the ISCV...

Hi Crags.. just fer info.. I was referring to changing a 172, not a 16v to Willy ??? Hows the Stalion Mobile going on m8.. and give me the dirt on the turbo needing replacement ??. Joe..

no idea on the Williams, not a car I know really the track could always be changed with light allow spacers, its such a small change that no unreasonavle load would be placed on the wheel bearings. the whole cup suspension is so easy to copy for a 172 that it will present no real problems...

Hi M8, yep, also, the 3mm drop is caused by the extra inclination of the strut to obtain the caster. redrill 2 bolts at the bottom arm and you have all the cup suspension mods it still needs neg camber though.. needs a pair of ofset bolts in the strut to hub mount. Joe.

again, my airbag wheel may be for sale (Mk2 172) £200 Joe.

nope, you just created an air leak on a faulty engine / control system you could have pulled a breather pipe off to do it. or, had your Lama sensor replaced.
