they are individual, ive taken each one out of the loom one by one. to check the wire into the crimp and all are fine, thats what makes me think it could be a broken wire. it seemed to run fine when I pushed the loom back off the ecu before. Il find a pic if I can, think I took one on my phone...

another update.... went out tonight with the intention of making the connections 100% and therefore working again. the car was jumping between 2 and 4 when I was trying to see which wire was loose. Now it just runs on 2 no matter what I do with the loom. It could be a broken wire just off...

yes so, an update! heard there was some moderating been done while I was away?? anyways... I got the car home running on 2 and thought.. right im going to have a good crack at the wiring. I took 20mins on the fuses and took both ecus out. I replaced the omex and the renault ecu after...

its as fast as my brother's s1 exige, so i'd say that its pretty nippy :D kenny brown also commented 'fast little bugger'

lol, I think il still be keeping it when its fixed, this car owes me well its not fixed, not at all. Drove 200yds out the garage and it started again, he warned me it would but told me how to stop it and why he thinks it could be a lead (wouldnt show up on voltmeter) or possibly the omex hasnt...

okay an update as promised! the car is fixed (sort of) It runs on 4 now but revs at 2k revs on idle. im think the VDO valve thingy, he maintains there is no air leaks on the inlet the guy found a loose connection on the wiring loom, havent picked the car up yet so will reveal more when I...

nahhhhhhhhhhhh rather keep the mk2 18s get some compomotive 18" MO's machined in vee offsets

interparcel do them for £23ish each

as soon as I find out what it is and its 100% again il be posting on here.

Im sure ive seen that kicking about glasgow few months back? I need to get me another mk1

I swapped number 1+4 with 2+3 and it was the same 2 cylinders that didnt fire, plus they are magnecor 8.5mm so doubtful. cheers for the support though!

that was muchly appreciated, thanks

it is intermittant the running on 2, at least I should be able to knock out the fact its the omex to fault as it has been run on another car without failure. Il speak to the garage on monday and see what he says, he may have checked the signal from the ecu to give him the idea thats whats...

Id have a good time if that was the case, it could well be the cambelt though, or the renault ecu drivers have broken down. need to know if that is possible though

so do I mate, I dont think its going to be a cheap fix anyway! the igintion drivers are the part of the ECU that omex repaired.

okay so towed the car to the garage, but thanks ali for the offer of the trailer. The garage have come up with 2 possible options but trying the smallest first> the cambelt has slipped a notch or the ignition drivers are failing. A question for the experts, does the omex take care of the...

dunno but that 'liner ripped them a new bumhole lol

in my experience of owning a cat D v6 I'd never ever buy another. Trying to sell it on was a nightmare, ended up giving it away at a silly price.

it can but still comes up as 'condition inspected' on the HPI, so only slightly better for resale. Suppose technically it does mean you can miss that it was previously written off in the advert.

far as I know it wasnt repaired by renault though... or so I was told by the previous owner (who crashed it)

its called the track rod. They are a bit of a pain to remove though

heading towards glasgow about 10am, I passed going in the other direction

my tdc sensor has been cut and replaced with the new one

takes 2 minutes to fix, sometimes it just needs cleaned to fix it.

I was in a honda elise supercharged on friday, properly quick. my brother has an s1 exige too, such a difference in speed between the 2

^ that looks s**t. get some turbines or buy those ph2 valver wheels with the red lip edit-car looks top nick btw! my mum used to have a white valver back when they were current model :D

where did you take it to R80HXX?

would really really appreciate that ali, Im sure I could find something to tow it with, maybe buy a tow hook for the van.

I had the injector rail off last week too and let it spray while cranking, they pulsed in the correct order and a regular pattern across all 4. It doesnt smoke at all, not even a little even if i give it a wee rev while its cold. arrrgghhhhh its booked into Kenny Brown for next friday...
