    Hub Centric Spacers

    hmm.. If you want the wider track, get yourself a set of Ren 19 wishbones and driveshafts (same part as willy) and whack them on - job done.. I would still steer very clear of spacers..

    Yup. You need a new motor/mechanism matey, Changed one on my 19 last week, grab one from a scrappy/GSF, and its quite an easy job to swap them over.

    New engine

    Think therea a lot of debate on this one.. Some 172 drivers advise 1000 miles before you redline it, though I think others have ragged it sraight from new, with no ill effects. Me - Id take it easy for at least 500.

    Electric Window

    On my 19, the window will go 3/4 of the way up, then just makes a griniding noise, and the motor wont go any further. Its not the runners, as its easy to grab the window and push it the rest of the way. So Im thinking its got to be the regulator/motor. I have a spare one, how hard are they to...

    R5 GTT engine transplant

    Problem is, the Willy engine weighs a LOT more than the GTT lump, so Id have thought its not going to do great things for the handling and balance of the 5.. Could be wrong though?

    help!!

    Could well be your headgasket, if youre losing water. is there a creamy mayonnaise residue in the filler cap? Also - have you checked your oil levels? As low oil levels will affect oil pressure.

    Improve MK1 172 handling for 11 quid!

    Yup. Had spacers on my 19 when I got it.. Its dody fitting universal spacers, as the wheels are no longer mating with the hub, its the bolts that are taking all the load. V V dodge. Would take them off if I were you Rhys. Or at least get wheel/hub specific spacers. Ben
