did you bleed the coolant system of air after you'd refilled?

And this pin is absolutely perfect for locking the crank http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/LASER-TDC-TIMING-PIN-Renault-Megane-2-0-16V-96-99_W0QQitemZ260512154577QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Hand_Tools_Equipment?hash=item3ca7bc03d1

it's now called MOT 1801 for the pulley lock tool

like jabbing your eyes out with a compass isn't it

very likely something to do with the rear brake compensator. The one on the RSI was seized solid and the pedal went to s**t. Could also be the master cylinder needs a bit of a kick to get the air out of it, sometimes helps to REALLY stand on the pedal (pump is up loads!!!) and keep pressure on...

should be a sticker on the cambelt cover unless it's come off

turn the cams so they're putting tension on the cover, then walk away for a few minutes

they do actually

makes rather a lot of torque now!!!!! :eek:

it's not just for loosening the pulleys, you need to use it to lock them while you tighten them too

williams isn't engine out to do the cambelt!!!!

yours is probably due belts soon ;)

Fancy a set of C&Bs then Mr.W-C?

private/light goods is the same class :S

now, we spent a bit of time looking this up, and can't find a reason why the vans would be more, but didn't have a registartion to try it against. it still comes under the same bracket so according to the DVLA website, it should be the same

£20 now, and that's on all the 1.5 DCIs

any mk2 ph2 tbh. 65 is easiest to find and easy to make a few improvements on, 80 and 100 are relatively unusual, and a bit quicker. Cheap tax on all of them, some of the early mk3s were higher tax as they had higher emissions

cheapest hard wearing low maintenance pads possible on the rear, the brake balance is the only reason the rears dont do much, and that's how you want it

i've seen them measure 16v, just means they're stuffed

Re: Ben_stevo172 - Supercharged Monaco 172 dont need internals for more power, don't even need more peak boost TBH

could have a blow, could just be the fact a Cup has next to no sound deadening, might have a box that the baffles have blown out of or the cat has collapsed

should do, it's running lambda, all it might need is a bit of ignition timing tweaks to make sure the cat gets hot at low rpm, but they're normally ok :)

biggest improvement on that will be getting it nice and low!! should be a nice car with that bit of bodywork finished :)

c16v is better in general for mk1s, but there's a resistance to the F4R on there TBH. It'll gradually change IMO, prove something and it gains popularity. Everyone seems to like taking a nice megane engine, take the head off, and replace it with one that has smaller valves and a...

i was refering to mechanical configuration changes tbh, it's under 0.5 bar IIRC, plenty of ways to play with boost delivery and still be quite safe on standard internals

what power do you have currently? there might be options before opening the engine is needed at all

dephaser pulley? lol, clearly a man that likes to waste money

had VERY encouraging results from C&Bs

MASSIVE holset turbo probably (HX35/40)

...or show you your mistakes maybe ;)
