Yep same one. Came in 25th of novemeber as a runner with years mot from private sale.
Its been in for ages.
At least 2 hours of work wasted on it every day. I've had 2 other trained mechanics have a check of it..
Only other thing I can think of is to much fuel to air mixture. But saying that I...
Seems like I'm talking to my self :(
What about the electrical system what parts of that would stop it starting. I've checked the wires going into the throttle body
I think it might be flooded now but I took the sparks out and cleaned them all and turned it over a couple of times with out the fuel line on to clean it out.
When i removed the spark plugs fuels spits out at me.
I removed the Plugs and turned the engine over. Every time Cam hits TDC cylinder...
It also depends where the Head gasket breaks..
Can break mixing oil and water.. But could also break just entering water (on some engines) in the pistons so white smoke / water will come out exhaust
But like 'Da' says
Take it to a garage get it pressure checked they will properly not charge you more then £20.
Then another £600 when they do the job lol..
I'm guessing there isn't much may-o in the oil cap or you would of heard of seen things going wrong. Clean the cap off and check it again in a day or two.
I would more expect to see the headgasket to go if the water level was Low and the engines got hot.
other then the engine getting to hot i wouldn't see another reason for a 14,000 engine to blow its head gasket.
Every thing is run of the same phone line socket and that has a filter.
Internet just went out. But I also couldn't even get the router config panel up at 192.168.0.1
So I'm guessing its a router problem ??
No point really trying to do a ping test if i can't view the routers control panel
Head gasket Shouldn't go on a car that's only done 14,000 miles NO matter how hard you drive it.
Thats bad. Renault will try every thing to get out of it tho.
For the last 2 days my internet keeps cutting off every 10 mins.
I've checked all cables. Changed the RJ-11 as it was bent.
Still the same problem.
This is with the sky wireless router so its not a computer problem.
OK this problem is really starting to annoy me. I've had a car in the garage for over 2 weeks now I can't find out the problem
Got a 1.2 E-type engine here. it wont fire. No ignition(of fuel) at all.
Checked the timing. (Crank pulley is set to the TDC Marking. Fly wheel is at TDC and cam is at...
By the looks of it. Most things are a by-product of petroleum (diesel,LPG,Kerosene,Jet Fuel).
Well jet fuel is Kerosene :)
So I had get Kerosene at 20p a litre :) so I ill run my car on that :) job done :)
Kerosene is it the same as paraffin? And what would it be like in a diesel engine (forgot about the fuelling system E.G. pumps lines filters I'm on about the combustion side of the stuff.)
