Pump pushes it up the lines, technically if the line was off the rail it would fly out at 3bar+

Got a spare key you can try? Tried taking battery off for a bit?

Sounds like immobiliser to me for sure :( Not sure what else to suggest!

Tried the usual lock/unlock/lock/unlock a few times while sat inside the car then try to start it? Is the immobiliser light is on when cranking (if it even cranks?)

Good work, love the look of it in last picture. I've read the thread before but must have missed it, what management are you going to run it on?

Check fuel pump fuse in engine bay, and maybe unplug and plug pump back in under seat just to be sure its not the connector

Not to mention it will cost you £50 to open a claim with the small claims court lol.

[Mk1] Fog Light Replacement Air Scoops (For Under £10!) Maybe something similar could be achieved ;)

It doesnt matter, because you have no hard proof (Advert saying fully working, etc) of condition upon purchase. Its just your word against his, which isnt good enough to get a definate conclusion, if he says you cant have your money back. Ive been to solicitors, and all sorts of people about...

Camskill - Toyo T1-R 195/50/15 - £29ea, if you're wanting a few a local garage should fit and balance them for £5/tyre.

New or used?

You havent got much comeback due to having no reciept, PistonHeads advert isnt good enough. Luckily when mine went wrong I had an eBay listing to go back to. His PistonHeads advert does not say weather its in good condition or not, you only found that out when you rang him. Unless you have a...

Exactly what I did with a stuck one last night. WD40, wiggle'd it and tapped it round, slid straight off :)

Only be worth building a 100% fresh one to be sure as the bearings/pump in the other could possibly be knackered due to the history of it!

After finding the bottom end on Pistonheads for Adam, he phoned the guy who said it was in good condition, turned over fine etc. So we made the 250mile round trip to Cleveland/North Yorks to pick it up... Got it back to the factory earlier, flywheel off and on the engine stand just to double...

Its Icarus@TDF's Dyno Cell

Oh, same. I thought you were on about the time when he apparently beat a 172 lol.

No one else has seen that happen yet though, just his word against Jonff lol.

Dont know what your on about Dave... lol

Just come across this...easy way for someone to throttle body their 1*2 with everything included it seems... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=160398127534&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT

Very odd that they are such a tight fit. I tried someone elses from this group buy on a brand new FK strut and it was a 'perfect' fit into the spring, so im guessing 1mm difference in size would make it tight!

Just got your PM's on C16v dude. And yes, they should sit inside, mine do, it seems your springs are slightly smaller in diameter. My car went alot lower too after fitting, so I just wound it up to compensate :)

Standard OE Spring Top Hat --------> AST Bearing ---------> AST Black Top Bit -----------> AST Mount -------------> Through The Strut, Then The Top Ring?

Possibly, who knows, this is Renault after all lol.

Pull the trim off and there is a nut holding the reel in at the bottom near the door-shut. Then undo the nut higher up on the sliding adjustable bit. Last one is to remove the bar down on the side that the belt is looped round, which is one nut again then twists to come out.

I removed my O/S shaft from a 172 Cup (53 plate) and it was one piece?

My 172 engine runs 5-6bar cold idle, then around 1bar hot idle as RSPORT-andy said

Another thing that I just remembered when I was driving home then... You said your Magnex pops/bangs with the 172 engine etc, and did in the past too? As mine has never done it (apart from once or twice on track when its been red hot). I have straight through, no cat no silencers just the...

You need an engine first, LOL.
