you shouldn't remove the adjuster entirely, the spring wont have anything to locate on. However you can remove the platform from the threaded section

using copper slip is probably why they're seizing back up. It cooks off and hardens, and is also abrasive

you really do suck at life :p

Sykes are selling the pulley locking tool now. It's double the price of one from Renault, and i'm pretty sure them make them for Renault anyway

intermitent wiper speed

182 upper will bolt to a 172 but not the other way round. 182 upper has an extra vac pipe barb for the carbon canister, this can be blocked pretty easily to use on a 172 if needed

think he means Nm ;)

looks lower in that picture. mine doesn't bump steer though and it's similar

you need to check the alignment then really, thats not low enough to cause a problem

main thread is here http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?554579-519-Automotive-Open-Day :)

is it very low? bump steer kind of suggests that the balljoints are at an extreme of travel

I'll bring mine next time if i can :)

25Nm

£450 actually

As Steve said, dont get them to do it, if he doesn't know/admit the belts are due/overdue then he wont pay to have it done right. Get it cheap enough to allow you to have it done at a specialist, or find another car :)

you need new front disks and pads, and if you have clicking on cornering then due to the CV boot leaking all its grease out, you'll need a new driveshaft too. All wear and tear items

i would have advised you to do it in the last 6 months really

thats what rat-look is meant to be!!!! trying too hard is doing it wrong, it's all about patina!! I freakin love this van

and again

Re: Bomber's Savage Supercharged Snorting Slut of a Ph1 just a bit of lateral thinking really, due to the odd voltage thats being seen.

Re: Bomber's Savage Supercharged Snorting Slut of a Ph1 sounds a bit like your back feeding via something with a resistance thats dropping 12v to 7v. A temp sensor would be the most obvious thing to me being that they are essentially resistors when piggybacking with the stock ECU in place I...

worth checking the sparkplug wells too. Laingos was full of oil past the top of the plug when i did his cambelt back whenever it was, had been pissing out the breather plate

i have indeed, cams wouldn't move once the bolts were torqued, got the cam journals line honed though, wasn't out by much, just enough to bind

check will take an hour, resetting it is a bigger proposition

you're about 45 minutes from me down the a14

cheaper than that on a cup too :)

There's more than one way it can be done incorrectly. The most common is for the cams to be mis-aligned, but it's not unknown for the crank to be pinned in the wrong place. There's different symptoms for different errors and different margins of error

have you had your car correctly diagnosed, or just guessed at the lambda being at fault?

sounds like the timing is out, maybe quite significantly if the symptoms are that noticable
