yeah, just noticed you've got a few threads running!! will read through your original one.

you've got loads of bolts missing from the stat housing, will be coming from behind that, think one of the bolts missing will give you an oil leak for a kick off.

have you had the ignition on with bits unplugged? what have you been doing to it?

look busy;) do a bit of blasting and polishing, some carb rebuilds and look after a few cars and bikes for people i know. try not to be too busy though so i can play with my own stuff but got far to many projects on the go at the moment!!

this sums it up

got a unit on kelvin road just by the four bridges.

you wouldn't say that if you knew me;)

been tidying the living room, yeah i know how to live it up!! that was the thread i was thinking of, will look at getting something made up over the next couple of weeks. got an idea for something to fit into both cam openings with a hole in the centre for a lever to fit in and key into the end...

cheers. but surely they must look at them, even if it's just a passing glance but who know eh?? another on i took that i like

think there is a thread on here with both horse shoes on and someone even worked out the angles on them?

wouldn't let it bother me, especially a D. the whole system is a joke anyway, i've seen cat A cars back on the road, written off due to flood damage. i sold an A4 last year, declared it as a cat C, it had all the paperwork relating to the claim with it but on a check it came up as clear!! and...

not that i know of, but it wouldn't take long to knock one up, few mates near me with cnc/milling machines and i'm not in a panic to get it re set.

thing is some people will just take a crap photo, end of!! how many times have you seen a pic that someone posts and it's so out of focus and so close to the subject you wouldn't have a hope in hell of working out what it was. still beggars belief that people post pics even though they are...

yeah, just kicking myself for not checking it before i got stuck in

sorry, i could of been a bit clearer. will be locking the cam first, give me an excuse to make something to lock it with that can then be used to measure any changes, spend ages making it, spend loads on it and then discover someone already makes something for doing it!!

but that would involve buying two new cam end caps, sod that!! lock crank, slacken cam pulley bolt and then stand there for twenty minutes trying to work out how to measure how much i turn the cam by... as they say...

seinheisser or however you spell it!!

inlet cam was set advanced before i stripped it down but forgot to check by how much. it's now set up with standard cam timing.

not the end of the world, just drives like a standard one now, low down isn't bad really it's just not as gutsy as it used to be mid range and up. the only thing is i would love to know exactly what the cams were timed to so i could get them timed as they were. time for a diy advanced timing...

decided to tart up under the bonnet while i was doing cam belt on my car, looked at the belt that was already fitted and looked reasonably new but thought might as well change it anyway as the cam cover was coming off to get coated and i wanted to check what cams are in as it's a bit too grunty...

just up in wallasey, got a unit by the four bridges.

6 points, 22 (twice)traders policy, £5.00 less than a bag of sand...sorted!!

ah well, will check the numbers with renault tomorrow and see what that comes up with.

quite a few brackets and covers under the bonnet you could lose weight from.

possibly bit of a dumb one, what are part numbers for standard renault cams and how are they marked? doing a belt and a few bits on mine today and i could of sworn the renault numbers are cast into the cam? numbers on mine are dot punched on, i could be totally wrong about them being cast in but...

just bung a mini cat in.

as long as the battery is ok then first port of call is connections on starter, especially if you are a bit iffy about them anyway.

Well I was going to suggest a few of us chipped in and bought it as a shared track day car, best scrap that idea now

sorry to have to brake it to you but they don't exist, tooth farys that is, not teeth.
