Sounds stupid, but battery? Check the earths. Check all the sensors on the engine are plugged in. Then do the usual, fuel, spark compression checks.

Yep, tighten the nuts right up. But stop when it hits the end of the thread or you'll shear it.

Looking good Dev Vijay.

Well worth your £12 on here already, lol.

It's been remapped.

Anyone but Flux. Horrible bunch. Greenlight, Sky or Brentacre. Mostly let you mirror the NCB too.

Mike's no longer at Woodley yard, only messes about with cars in his spare time, but good bloke none the less.

Change the breather plate from the top of the engines over, use your 182 upper inlet. Done. Ten mins work.

@midge has an engine and box going cheaply. £270 for the pair iirc!

If it's over revved like that, it won't have survived, pretty much.

This. I can have an engine and box out in two hours with a crane. Putting back takes a bit longer obvs, but do-able in a weekend taking it relatively easy if you know what you're doing.

Ouch. Worst case, find a decent breaker on here, and get both the engine and box from it. £500 in parts.

Whatever size the Sabelt wheel is does me perfectly.

Yep, as above. Wheels ruin that. On mint Turinis or 2118's, that's a £3500 car all day long if the condition is good.,

Stick to genuine mate. The aftermarket ones are rubbish. Second hand one off here from a breaker should be £80-120. That said, i'd be taking that to an exhaust place and getting them to repair it.

Come to Chertsey with £10k and it's yours I reckon!

Save water. Have a bath with a fwend.

Yeah, that's not OEM, someone's replaced it at some point. They sometimes melt, so no big deal.

You 100% need matching decent tyres all round.

Black breather pipe goes from inlet elbow to cam cover. Blue one is a vac pipe from the inlet to the brake servo.

Build thread for that car here iirc: http://www.cliosport.net/threads/mk1-f4r-172d-track-car-project-year-3-engine-and-chassis-rebuild.364502/

2002 is 99% Ph2 172. Way to define, is headlight shape. Ph1 is round headlights, Ph2 is triangle

@StrongboW if you have a silver 182, it's Titanium silver. Same colour that is on Ph1 172's, but you need a bonnet from a 182 obvs..

Ph1 172 looks like this: Ph2 172 looks like this: 182 looks like this: Bonnets from a Ph2 172 will fit your 182, but if you want to find one in the right colour, let us know what colour your 182 is and we'll tell you the colour name for it.

At high revs? Could well be the exhaust mani hitting the subframe. Try loosening the upper engine mount, pulling the engine towards you and tightening the bolts. If that doesn't work, then it's new dogbone mount time (assuming it's the mani hitting the subframe).

Absolutely no way you'd ever know once it's all fitted.

I met him a few years ago. Decent bloke!
