Is the misfire in the same cylinders?

Have you gapped the plugs? I had a misfire under load on the Focus ST & Vectra after cranking up the boost. It was blowing plugs out. Had to gap them down.

Craig is fcking awesome.

I've noted about 3 things (gauges mainly) using scotch locks from the cigarette lighter wire! Sad thing is, I need to add other things into a similar feed, but want to do it correctly. What is the best way to either share 1 connection with 3 devices safely? do I have to run individual feeds...

Losing.

Where's the information from?

I've got a set of these in another turbo project, but I am unsure on their CC. Some internets say 390cc and other internets say 480cc @ 3 bar. Renault part number on them is: 8200511099 These are the blue collar, green tip ones - that show up by google image searching the above part number. I...

No.

You mean, my boost gauge? And my boost controller.... I think the 940 looked good, but you, look awful.

3 years on from Jim's first post, the car has just been rebuilt. A forged engine build with bigger turbo. Should I update this thread or could start a new one, if anyone is interested in the build. Have all the photos of the trials and tribulations.

This morning on Warmsworth road.

I know mate, Middlesborough is a sh*t hole.

Aww.. gutted mate. You can move away in time, just be patient.

I'm after some advice on how to accomplish a flexible oil return. My situation is below, I have both end connectors, so that's cool: Blue square = a 90degreee 16mm elbow (ignore the piping on the end of it) Red square = a push fit 16mm opening (I have an end for that too) What I don't have, is...

I've got a few cars, but drive a Mazda 3 as a daily. I'm technically from 'near Donny' on the A19. Them lads from Barnsley are probably rough. Be careful mate.

Looks nice. I was going to post a 'spotted' thread up there, but I'm lazy. Last time I saw you was a few weeks ago, you were heading away (the best direction).

Does yours have Turinis? Sure I've seen you on Warmsworth Road on a morning.

Where exactly was the photo taken where you are sat on a mountain?

Excellent. The flywheel is bone dry, from what I can see. Reckon it could be the sump gasket then...

There is a bit of oil on the floor of my garage from a recently aquired 140k 182. On the underside, I can see the following: At the top of the engine there is oil residue around the cam covers and some oil possibly mixed with water in a gully just behind the plenum at the front. There is...

Because I'm not in a relationship with any of my immediate family.

TBF stating you are from Doncaster is embarrassing enough, isn't it? If anyone asks me, I say I'm from 'near Leeds'.

I remember being in the pub about 5 years ago discussing and watching youtubes of OM606's with Craig. He's finally done it - what a man (and machine).

Boothy to do the black faded trim parts? No interior pics :( Wots yer best price m8.

You need a lift or anything?

Looks great. When can I buy it and put it next to the last french tin I bought off you?

It genuinely reads as though Andy is a nice chap. However, I sense that Andy wasn't/isn't assertive enough in his management of the project. (Please do not take that personally, I am very similar). Imagine if all these nice people help you out and you do manage to getting running. It is by...

So when do you change that back out? Run with it for a thousand miles or so?

Now then. I've built a new bottom end. It has new (forged) rods, pistons along with new shells, bearings, rod bolts yada yada (the head is the original). The turbo is also brand new - straight off the shelf. I'm shi^^ting it, when it comes to starting it up for the first time. I lined the...
