sometimes mine feels nippier with air con switched off but maybe its in me head. i know on me old mans 1.25 zetec fiesta you can feel it when you motorway driving an you switch it on but thats a much smaller engine
thats w**k man hope u catch the theivin c**ts i can't be doin with it people like that us folks work hard to fund our cars an various other things 4 some c**ts to invade your privacy an rob them an if you were to catch them an give them the hiding they deserve you would end up in more trouble...
auto glym is rather harsh i only use it if me wheels are proper grimed up an never leave it on long. My mate charges me 25 a wheel to sand blast an power coat an its real durable an he has got some funky finishs!
picked my 172 up today 02 plate 37k one owner from new frsh from pentegon an i love it awesome car feels like luxury after 3 years in a very low vtr an its quite good on fuel to my surpirse crackin car!
i had this on a mk1 valver i was working on few months back popped new circlip an washer in an all was good. I have heard of these popping out again in past an i was told a few spot welds would sort problem? but like i said the one i did gave no further probs :)
Tbh my mate has had two evos a 5 an 6 both around 400 hp an has now got rid of them an got himself an s2000 which is not as quick but he says you need to be more of a driver. He reckons anyone can look good in an evo to a point?
I was told this when I was carrying out this job on a mk 1 valver but I was informed that if this was the case I should pop a couple of spot welds round the circlip but like I said I didn't have any further probs once done
also put ya fingers inside box cause i had to fish the bits out off circlip an washer but certainly sounds like it is the circlip an its a cheap quick fix :)
a mate of mine had his 182 sprayed white last year with various black touchs now traded it in an the chap at the garage is strugglin to get rid but like i said his is not all white so maybe the black touchs put people off?
your best stripping the passenger side shaft out then you will know for certain if its the circlip an washer but it deffintley sounds that way from my past experience
