    Not my cup of tea, though they do look nice in the flesh, a mate's dad has one and even since iv known him (about 15 years) its been under a sheet in his garage, and has about 10 boxes stacked on it lol

    Will water in the exhaust evaporate over time?

    you could stick a hose pipe in your tail pipe and still after a drive it will blow it all out mate(i have seen this done lol), no need to worry there, the sloshing noise is though, i can only think either there was enough water inside to 'fill' up one of your exhaust boxes, id lay my money on...

    lightweight windshield

    Get a normal windscreen fitted out a base model Clio, it wont be heat reflective like the RS, but it will be lighter. This is what the 172 Cups use, a screen out a base spec Clio

    Missfire, oil and mayonnaise on plugs, s**t!

    depends on a lot of things, some cars overheat easily, some cooling systems are not up to scratch, some have poor cooling tracks through the cylinder head, there are a lot of variables to take into context

    Missfire, oil and mayonnaise on plugs, s**t!

    Yes thats true, it could have,but the water pump could have been changed as a precausion, does it say anywhere in your reciepts mate?

    a potentially stupid question bout oil change

    Dont bother with it, decent oil does what a flush does anyway, except better

    Missfire, oil and mayonnaise on plugs, s**t!

    I would lay a big bet not headgasket I think it has come from cleaning the engine, have seen the same simptoms as you before on various 1*2s As Dan has said, get the plugs out, change them, and possibly the leads, depending if they are contaminated, i think waters got down in the plug holes...

    Should I have used loctite?

    Rolling Road Day @ PowerStation

    No problem matey, most of the time there are only in depth answers, thats the basics really, the heldex controller is what varies the power, take its fuse out and the car reverts to mechanical driven power, that being the front wheels :)

    Rolling Road Day @ PowerStation

    Cirtainly not a dumb question matey :) When the car detects the wheels slipping (via many different sensors, abs sensors, throttle position etc etc)) it trasferes power to the wheel/s that have the most grip, constantly variaing(sp) the power. On the RR, they take the fuse out which...

    Rolling Road Day @ PowerStation

    nope, makes it front wheel drive, taking the fuse out disables the heldex unit

    How to replace a fuel injector?

    if cleaning them doesnt work, you can send yours away to be chemically cleaned also try swapping it with the injector next to it, see if the fault changes to that injector, this will make sure its the injector at fault not a wiring break
