That pipe goes up to the inlet manifold and sucks in exhaust vapours
You should be able to block it off no problems
If you block it off and the engine cuts out - it sounds like the main inlet is blocked or the throttle body is gunked up
It should be able to suck in enough air to tick over...
I don't think you're understanding
I've got a 182 manifold - they come right down under the car - then I've got a 172 exhaust system
The space between manifold and exhaust is only about 10" :(
I've spent 3 weeks asking - even offered to drive 100 miles to have it done
Can't find anyone "friendly"
The guy who did my old 106 doesn't do them anymore :(
Does anyone have any pics or a guide or anything on how you chop the 172 cat to fit?
I'm really struggling with this - 182 manifold -> K-Tec link pipe -> Oreca Group N
My MOT is in 7 days and I can't find any cats that will fit other than the £320+ sports cat link pipe of K-Tecs which to be...
And back on to the overall topic of "Why do young drivers get punished so much when it's generally middle aged morons that can't drive"
I got drove into today by a 50+ year old, foreign, disabled, people carrier driver...
Bit harsh
I had mine done at Formula One Autocenter in Lincoln - they use the hunter system
The guy doing it told me I could watch them do it - it set the camber/caster/toe all to within 0.01mm of tolerances - the guy knew what he was talking about and asked me what toe in/out I wanted - and I...

Accurate
So as you can see back up the road is all double yellow lines so I couldn't just park up and have a fag and...
Wasn't that one ;)
Of course! And I know you're gay, and you're currently wearing womens underwear, and I can also see the president of america if I shut my eyes. Everyone on here is omnipresent and psychic.
Thanks though guys - I understand now. Everyone else leaves a 30m gap between cars at...
Anyhooooo.... I was just getting a rant off my chest - job done. All the "holier than thou" trolls have emerged and I'm stuck at work till 3am - so let the troll bating commence!!!
LMFAO are you guys complete idiots or do you just not read previous posts?
I was driving in a 30mph with 2 car lenghts between us - I have a beaten up old 306 1.4 - it doesn't stop as well as a jag with 300mm discs
He slammed on - I slammed on and stopped before I hit him - this left about half...
Wrong - the police just come and "chat" to you at your house - first offense, clean record. Even if there was 8 mates in his car it's still a civil offense and his word against yours
There was no damage to vehicle and I didn't hit him - you can't end up in prison for shouting at someone
If he'd...
Do you think I wanted to sit in the car on a railway line while some wanker in front of me wouldn't let me get off?? I could have been killed if the barriers came down
What would you do if your car broke down on a level crossing?
And before anyone says anything - there was a car behind me also...
I've done that over a dozen times - the police always say they'll talk to them and never do. It's not even really classed as a criminal offense and it's my word against him and his wife.
I don't care if his wife, kid, mum, grandma and aunty are in the car - he should think about that before...
I don't at all - I used to be terrible for it - but these days I just drive around with music on in a car worth £300 and don't give a f**k
The driving off while I was trying to overtake didn't bother me - even not indicating I'm getting used to - but I'm sorry forcing me to park on a busy...
