Uch issues are generally dry solder joints in the board so you wont see much unless stripping it down and looking on the circuit board carefully. Send it off to diesel pump repairs and he will check it over and sort any issues...

Updates. Used stock 14t turbo bought as i suspected the seal was leaking on this one as slight oil whiff on idle after changing seals. Was absolutely correct diagnosis when removed. Chra/cold side easy to remove. Rear seal leaking oil, oil on core can be seen. Turbo fitted, finished the last...

Wonder if any issues in the bulkhead loom connector next to washer bottle or uch playing up regarding the washer jets.

Same specialist that done my yellow meg by any chance :LOL: Was it the esp light on the dash? the abs/non esp cars dont even have the yaw sensor. Mines disconnected and esp button removed and light turned off on dash, abs light works as it should and no faults stored. Had no choice getting rid...

I have yaw sensor unplugged on my trophy to disable asr and have turned off the asr light on the dash with clip. Abs light extinguishes as normal.

Them boots look like they are for the hydraulic rack with the larger inner. I cant remember the part number but i found some that fitted ok, even if slightly smaller they will go on. These will work ok going by the size. The rubber is soft will stretch on fine...

The fasteners arent too bad, was just the monkey that had been there before sadly. Luckily have a load of used ones so made a set up. Engine bay sound deadening is about shagged on it. Needs replacing really but i dont think its possible to find a good used one.

Regarding rack boots, febi make half decent quality ones. Sizing is a minefield however

Great updates, maxxecu install looks spot on.

Its horrendous mate. The more i looked the more bodges ive seen. Cheers mate. I recall thinking this was a quick project :LOL: couldnt leave it mate i reckon it would have went wrong at some point. The sump bolts are terrible. I done similar and chain drilled the flange off the bolt and...

Weekend update Started off with installing new cam seals. Ching spec mandrel doing the business. Dug out the homemade crank puller. Easy work. That took a whole half an hr max. Onto sump removal next. Im no stranger to the etorx bolts holding them on and how soft they are. 5 bolts were...

Ive bled my trophy from totally dry and no issues bled up straight away without activating abs, but had to put 4ltrs through another renault and had to activate the abs solenoids a few times to get a good pedal. Luck of the draw, suck it and see i guess. Buy a pressure bleeder if you dont...

Looks normal. Rear brakes do nothing so it will take a few miles to get the rust off the full surface

Ive had covers on my Ast's from new, and still looking mint when i recently had a look in. Not used in winter however but wet use in summer.

Should be around high 13s/low 14v with engine running. Alternator dead or wiring issue at a guess, check positive wire ring terminal has not broken off where it connects to the alternator.

Rare. Ive been keeping my eye out for a mk3 van, seen them overseas but not in this country.

That is awesome never new that! Ill have a sniff round to see if available for ps1. Fond memories of hiring it out from blockbuster back in my youth. Was playing Time Crisis and Point Blank in arcade club in Leeds a while back. Both epic.

Cant beat a bit of retro gaming. I have nes, snes, master system, megadrive 2 and ps1. Got them all when free/v cheap. Perfect for winter when the weather is crap, no pissing about updating software, plug and play. The modern emulators are ok and i also have one for mame etc, but generally the...

Cheers mate. Yep loads of bodged f4rs out there sadly. Indeed mate. Previous owner spent a few quid at a specialist too. Bolts missing the lot, s**t show.

I was almost at the point of pulling the head and binning it as was concerned that the lack of locating dowels was going to be a mismatched cam cover and the repaired corner. However journals and cams looked ok so decided to go with it. Repair - not great but flat and doesnt leak 2 hours of...
