they can do wheel alaignment and full steering geometry

you could try lazerlign at kilsby, they did mine top notch they usually only do trucks but they managed my car just fine (i know them) but there is no harm in asking

do it! and keep yer profile too.

my ecu cover chafed thru the loom by the plug. its a bloody arse of a design. then again i've lost count of the number of wires and pipes i've repositioned or sheilded on mine since i got it reno are'nt very forward thinking

three letters GSF :)

WILLLY! pity i only got a 172 sorry....mk1 ..........then mk2 ph1 :)

^true really scapes your arm. i turn the air blue when i've gotta do a cluch cable on a clio or 1916v feed something thru the baulkhead from inside and attach it to the cable to draw the cable thru. still an arse tho

nice one i'll keep my eye out for it ;)

nah

also i think he probably means 3/8" still be well over 30nm tho

agreed, also the torque setting is there to ensure you pull them all up evenly

no mass sensor map in the manifold

don't run it too long with the iscv blocked in case it decides to suck on its own engine oil (messy LOL)

bit far LOL

where are you based?

haynes r ghey :P

if you completely block the pipe to the iscv and the car does not stall its getting air from somewhere else. either the throttle valve is open or you have a leak

do the rad top and bottom hoses get hot? does the temp gauge show normal?

thottle valve the bit the cable opens and closes also try taking off the pipe to the iscv at the air claener end and stick your hand over it for a mo and observe result

i think airbags just use a capacitor that looses its charge after an hour or so and recharges as soon as you turn the ignition back on

i have seen 1 ph1 172 with a damaged throttle valve (my own) and 4 with sticking cables all displaying the above symptoms

to start with remove the nasty awkward and prone to sticking every 25k throttle cable from the throttle body then ensure by means of a visual check of the throttle valve that this is closed ( in throttle body) start the car and observe idle speed. still way too high (and i mean over the norm...

doesnt the 182 have different exhaust ports to the ph1 172?

^ well said fred, and beat me to it too (i read too slow) edit: i type too slow too

or gsf

yup, karcher are excellent, i can get remanufactured ones at a discount too ;)

nope, under the new computerised system free retests are no more. after a fail its now a full teat again not just a check of the failed items, also there is no such thing as 'passed after rectifiction' anymore.

check your throttle cable is not kinked and has a nice sweeping curve to it as it comes from the tb. quick check, when its doing its high idle speed thingy lift the thottle pedal by hand and see if it makes a difference

probable that operating. vibration/pulsing under the pedal?
