    I've kind of gone the X65 Cup racer rep route with it but its still useable to move the daughter about in. Maybe start a project thread now its done.

    Standard + Properly clean = Winner (maybe some spacers with Cooksports/ProLines). Honestly, that'll be a proper nice looking motor gal.

    f**ked aux belt/pully? *now with video and iPhone 6 pics

    Re: Fucked aux belt/pully? If the tensioner is functioning (pivot point is moving and no damage to the idler bearing) then I'd just re-belt it

    He's right - Deffo weigh those in/sell them at your local McDonalds

    f**ked aux belt/pully? *now with video and iPhone 6 pics

    Re: Fucked aux belt/pully? Then its more likely the marks on the belt are due to foreign object damage. At the very least I'd do a new belt and make sure the tensioner/idler function

    Tapping noise

    Have you checked all the plugs are in properly yet? Is the tapping noises frequency static or rotational? Mick

    f**ked aux belt/pully? *now with video and iPhone 6 pics

    Re: Fucked aux belt/pully? Okay so firstly then you need to jump up and go look ay your setup to see if the spring is fouling the belt run. If so take it back to where ever the belt setup was fitted and claim under the 12 months parts and labour warranty it legally comes with. The only...

    Best Exhaust to Run with JMS RS2 Manifold

    There's no real right or wrong answer to this really. I have an RS2'd 172 running cams and a PMS silenced 2.5" exhaust and its perfect for me but if you ask Fred what his static noise levels are for the system you specifically want are I'm sure he'll help you out. If its pure lack of noise...

    Airbag Issue

    Either Renparts for a new, uncrashed unit or send it away to somewhere that can remove the crash context data.
  23. MicKPM

    Airbag Issue

    Correct, when a "deployment" has occurred it stores crash context related data and the module itself is un-useable. This data can be removed by someone with the correct software and equipment but it will not allow you to clear any data despite you replacing the blown bag units. Mick

    Replacing a UCH: What is needed?

    What others call "diagnostics" I call "conformity testing" as most places just like to code read where as I actually check all the circuits and systems are working and of not I delve in from there. Date wise I'm booked solid I'm afraid until week commencing the 17th (I've got an unconfirmed job...

    Another cam belt timing question

    As Fred said earlier, if there's any movement in the dephaser assembly your timing is going to be wrong anyway. Just make sure you get the crank pin in the correct hole or this happens:

    Another cam belt timing question

    It'll be more than 1mm I promise but yes, it'll be the cause of said clattering

    Replacing a UCH: What is needed?

    I'd take it somewhere to get it correctly diagnosed as a UCH fault before doing that... this is why I have a UCH with security disabled as a test unit.

    Replacing a UCH: What is needed?

    Hazards circuit should work without the key in the ignition. Did you conside4 the fault may be due to a fuse or something like a faulty switch? A common problem is the hazzard switch gets disconnected when people force aftermarket headunits in.
