looks good. Need one like yesterday though for a uni project.

Sounds like potentiometer. Mine was ticking over low and trying to cut out. I messed with mine and mines fine now. You wont notice a differnce when you adjust it if the cars running. You have to turn off the engine and restart it. Bet you its that as it sounds exactly like what mine was doing...

Cool they work without wires? they sound good. how does that work then? any idea what the maplin ones look like?

weight do you have a cheap contact or something to paint wheels? the number of wheels Ive seen you get re painted! hehe, they look mint in white. Woulnt mint mine done in that but seems a shame as mine are quite shiny still.

anyone else know anytthin about this? wheres the best place to thread a wire through on a 16v?

Make sure you get a good job done mate. Ive had bad experiences with painters. No one can make your car look as good as new though if you are having bits done. best off waiting and getting all the bits done at once. You may end up having the whole car done by the time you are done. PS. Have...

why not. could look pretty good. but a 16v bonnet would look better. best bonnet in the world.........

Sounds sweet mate. I want a 2 litre. Was it easy enough to fit?

I know what you mean. But the temp from outsides gonna be lower than in that engine bay at least lol.

I cant see the pint swappin. Make no difference. I bought some for a previus car. Did nothing at all. waste of money really unless you actually need a new set.

Thanks for that. What sort did he fit? Just one of the ones from halfords?

There was a topic on this a while ago about fitting one of those digital thermometers into the air box to see how cold the air is entering the throttle body. Anyone done this? You can get them from halfords cant you? have a sensor and a wire that runs to the display that could be fitted inside...

cant you get it tracked up with the 15s then swap over again?

I had my dials out the other day and when I put em back in the fuel gauge wont work now :confused: Everything else if fine apart from that. They havent been dropped or anything and were fine before I took em out. Any ideas anyone? sticky needle maybe? or have I missed a connector? couldnt see...

Flange juice. that works spot on.

You could even take the thermastat out completely. Heard of people doing that with 5 turbos. then just put it back in when weather gets colder. Might be a problem with the car though. MIne has NEVER got that hot even when thrashing it and being stuck in traffic on scorchin days.

That seems v high to me :confused:. Mines usually about 100 pretty much all the time on the oil gauge

Dont get em mate, get phase 2 lights. look sweet

Empty your PM matey. You;re full. Just wondered if you had sent the cheque back yet mate?

Would it be worth changing the wishbones and driveshafts too? Is it a fairly easy swap? I can get the wishbones etc too if needed. Might make my 17s catch though if the wheels stick out more.

I have a hill power one. Seems ok, i have 2 cold air feeds going to it though

I know theres a few people who have had this done. Thinking of having one in mine. Has anyone told there insurance? Also any advice on how easy it is to do?

V nice. Im being tempted to get a MK1 172 next after seeing them pics ;)

Your car looks mint by the way adi. Your car did well too, been looked after that car by Mat Brown. Like them rims too. Are they 17s? Wish id left my 17s on now. My car did sh*te with the 15s and now i got that hassle of changing em back tomorrow :( Do you want a phase 2 wiper? I dunno whether...

Yeah noticed that. Sgould of at least had tea and biscuits for us after paying £28 a head for a run. only cost about £55 for a tune up on the rollers!

Yeah mate thats my excuse too hehe. they are low. They are not made for clios either lol. Also that bloke testing it didnt like me :confused:. thats a good one :D. I dont think them blokes knew that much though to be honest. Probably the saturday helpers hehe

They said mine was running a bit lean too. I thought it seemed as though it was running rich to me :confused:. I dont think them blokes knew that much to be honest. They were trying to get me to have an engine condition check on mine as they said it was down on power, and a couple of months ago...

Hehe. Ill take it as a compliment yeah. Ill ask if she has any mates. Shes from Salisbury though so doesnt know that many people round here.

Was it Craggy or Jon using Craggys login who commented on my bird? lol
