etch a sketch, play doh etc.

yeah have a word with paul he will advise you either way you have to decide before its mapped obviously or you'll be waisting money

is it a custom map or generic? i'd speak to whoevers mapping it imo

how the hell can a lambda sensor put an oil pressure light up? a renault tech told you that? i thought AA were bad diagnosing every car they clap eyes on as a headgasket. probably just an oil pressure switch, or possibly too thin an oil grade? get the pressure checked just to be safe mate.

shall i use the hozelock fittings aswell?

or sorry is it the red pressure light theres a possibility its either a oil pressure switch or worst case an oil pressure problem, get it checked out mate

that'l be about the size of it sounds like the oil level sensors playing up

need to extend the 1.2 plastic servo pipe to fit it up to the 172 inlet. what sort of pipe should i be looking at as obviously it cant collapse under vacum ideally something i can get from the likes of homebase of b&q that will hopefully be open tommorow

i see, must admit i'd never heard of it before, cheers for the explanations

well yeah obviously there are pros and cons of the two it depends entirely what you are after but the general consensus is the 182 has more pros than cons torque/power curve wise

so forgive me if im being dumb here, but if you were to run a outboard injector setup and you were to physically cool the fuel say, would that be a way of reducing intake temps? sorry i love all this lol

Re: 70% complete 172RWD! yeah thats why i said is the pump running it may have just had line pressure when you checked it first unlikey i know but its worth a thought

yeah minus 10 hp

while you engine guru's are about,, whats going on here are these secondary injectors or is that how its fueled? like it is in a normal spi setup?? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2iBbwocYZw&NR=1

keh? seriously, i didn't get a word of that,, you mean the end of the pipes melt?

the 172 manifold is 4-1 why do you want one?

just puts a fault in the ecu mate dont stop it starting

answer to most of your questions are stop being a girl 1 they pull out, try harder 2 they have screws in iirc 3 they pull off they have clips at the top yank them out a tad and stick your head in there you will see the clips you just push them 4 pull harder

Re: 70% complete 172RWD! so fuel pump runs, injectors are firing, each plug is sparking, and you have compression? yes to all those its probably something like bore wash

your firing questions out quicker than we can answer lol. there arent any advantages really, your best keeping it there untill it starts clicking then just remove it to remove a bit of dead weight

with quin at 18 mine was 900 quid third party

i know! lack of global warming! im gonna pop out and rev the range rover up a bit, do my bit.

1.2, everything is 1.2 bar the engine and box same way yours is set up (as i've read) just a tad concerned with that one shaft is yours pinned on there or the same\?

imagine how i feel i've already binned it tell a lie i've only lost the speedo drive and starter heatsheilds. hmm

mk2 ph2 172 box,, the original 172 shaft was being held in by a center bearing bolted to the block, which obviously gets deleted when using 1.2 shafts

as title i've fitted 1.2 shafts when doing my 172 conversion, when taking the 1.2 shafts off the original gearbox the shaft just knocked off of the splined section on the box with a copper hammer but fitting it to the 172 box it seems a tad loose for my liking, theres a hole through the...

looks like your getting a bit wet there mate, lol just for future reference, you only need to take the grille and slam panel off to gain access to the rad

there bloody is try doing a 182 one. i had to shorted mine to fit the 182 manifold up to a 172 exhaust, cut it in half (i have 2) and attempted to smash the cat out couldnt touch it, air chisel wouldnt even touch it, ended it up putting it in the 10 tonne press to get it out

chop the wheel well out plate it up and fit the second exhaust bracket yeah in other words its not worth it

i just dont like that hes stuck 2.0 badges on it. pet hate
