i'd go with something in the cat. Didn't this car have a pretty big engine failure?

needs the live data looking at by someone who understands what the numbers mean and what they should be

pay for a diagnostics plug in, you'll get the the cause of issues much quicker and save yourself wasted parts buying

yes, it's checkable. Takes about an hour. If it needs recifying, then it's a load more work. Where are you near?

if you didn't have mayo in a 1.2 I'd be worried as someone has stolen your renault engine and replaced it with something else

Cups dont have a center bearing Genuine Renualt only for sport shafts. Pattern parts are NEVER the right ones

no you're right it doesn't look like it is, but oil mist blowing aorund can make things hard to trace. TBH it's almost certain to be coming from the linkage

is the sump plug tight?

I owned one of these but in yellow. I know it's s**t, but i still loved it LOL

there's 3 tools the pulleys are fully floating, if the belt teeth have been used to set the timing in any way, then it is wrong

it's not hard at all to get off tbh

serious answer or "i'm a dirty little filthbag IRL" answer??

f4r is like a dirty girl. it likes length

only time i can see that being any use is in the dyno cell. bad idea for on a car

Saturday afternoon, about 3.30 Tints, lowered, and non standard wheels. Looked nice I was in the black mk1 that went past you ;)

12k or 12 months. 18 months on a 1.2

Decent enough system. Keeping a cat in place will make the biggest difference to noise once you have an aftermarket exhaust on

the 197 version is a prick to fit, and couldn't tell it was on there afterwards it was so quiet

lots of bolts for the under tray drain plug is an 8mm square

the timing procedure is almost the same as for an F4R. pump takes a while extra, draining coolant, cleaning up gasket faces, refilling coolant, and bleeding the air out the system. It's often the water pump on these that causes timing belt failure by seizing

no, not really. Only time i'd consider it worthwhile would be for a supercharger conversion
