lol weeman gets some stick on this place!!
looking forward to getting it back on the road and giving it a blast, should handle like f**k even if it has only got 80bhp lol
ive got axel stands guys, just not using them on the car as i was doing another car in the driveway lol, 2 steel wheels were under the car as i done the gearbox mount and downpipe.
hoping to have it finished thursday night, i painted the bottom end of the engine black today to make it look a...
lol im fitting an engine ive just rebuilt but i dont know where the dipstick is ;) only kiddin mate yeah i know where it is was just trying to be a smart b*****d cheers tho!lol
lol both engines are at the side of the car, the one on the engine lift is the new one (50k miles, 16 straight valves, new cambelt, no oil leaks, no melted piston rings, a working waterpump) on on the floor is the old one (140k, 16 bent valves, snapped cambelt, oil leaks everywhere, melted...
get a strutbrace and paint it the same colour as the car too, would look good.
ohh and a 1.6 16v bottom end!, cheap 10bhp if you can fit it yourself! and no one would know to look at it :D
all 16v cars are 258mm but for some reason alot of motorfactors computers come up with 238mm for 1.2 16v clios!! i just ask for 1.6 16v disks now it saves problems lol
dont rush them and they'r fine. mine was fine after 140k, it was a CV joint that nailed it in the end, box was still fine and i nailed mine all the time
lol waterpump was leaking, emptied the full cooling system every 3 or 4 hours so just kept filling it with water, then the waterpump went and ate the cambelt, ah well lol
as far as i know you get 2 different types of anti freeze, if you mix them both together they cancel each other out! so dont work? sure i was told that off someone.

last thing i would be doing if someone hit my car with no mods declaired would be telling the police!!! it would then void their insurance and wouldnt pay out to you.
also he says he wants it to sound better not go faster..
^^ I beleive timmay is selling his ^^
deffo worth going for a 1.6 16v over a 1.2 16v(75bhp vs 110bhp) but hard to come by, the 1.2 you can get in any colour and any spec you want so your guaranteed to find a mint one if you look about.
