ahh that would probably be where i went wrong. doh!

I think i have learned a valuable lesson , not be cheap and just take it to a garage in the first place. The engine has dropped so non of the bolts that connect to the engine reach anymore , can almost get them on if i leaver the engine up but cant get it up enough. i think its time i...

Taking that engine mount off has made no really difference or help. I think ill jut get it toed to a garage as now i have no fuel pipe, engine at an angle so cant get mount back on , so need get engine crane or something to get it back in position.

This method does not seem to work . Can get the pipe about 6-8 inch down the side of the engine then it just jams against something . No matter how much you wiggle push bend twit it just goes no further . From looking at the molded pipe it seems to come from the fuel rail diagonal backwards...

cool will give it a go tomorrow. thanks for the help :)

ah thats the pipes then :) will have a good look tomorrow. i am just worried about it resting on the engine.

I have picked the part up from renault , its got 7 bends in it. I was thinking cable tie as well, worth a try. Just wondering if there is a better method. Do not want risk the pipe resting on the hot engine by just stuffing it down the side till it comes out under the car :s I had the car up...

I need replace my fuel pipe that connects to the fuel rail. Some of the plastic clip has broken on the end, so before it starts leaking I have ordered the part from renault. It seems to disappear off down the side of the engine, and i think it comes out under the car. Any advice on how...

Re: Missfire on cylinder 3, new plugs, leads, coil and injector is working. Plug is b Ok changed the injector , drove 200 miles . All the spark plugs now look like clean and as if the engine is firing correctly. However there is still when on idle and through out the rev range a hunting for...

Re: Missfire on cylinder 3, new plugs, leads, coil and injector is working. Plug is b Ok think i have found the problem this evening :) . As the compression ratio is ok, the spark plugs are fine the coil is fine and the leads are ok. It leaves me to believe its fueling. As only one spark plug...

Re: Missfire on cylinder 3, new plugs, leads, coil and injector is working. Plug is b just ordered a new inlet manifold gasket and injector seal kit today , just make sure that they are all sealed as best as possible. HT leads looked fine. After i have fitted these new bits. I think i am going...

Re: Missfire on cylinder 3, new plugs, leads, coil and injector is working. Plug is b have also just done a vacuum test on the manifold, at idle the vacuum seems to be about 40-42 cm Hg vac. I think it should be higher then this. 45 to 55. Although i do not know so any input on this would be...

Re: Missfire on cylinder 3, new plugs, leads, coil and injector is working. Plug is b compression test done cyl1 = 192 psi , cyl2=190psi, cyl3 = 195psi, cyl4=191psi . so no horrible differences. Does these results sound ok ?

Re: Missfire on cylinder 3, new plugs, leads, coil and injector is working. Plug is b hopefully sometime this week , i chap at the garage said he was going do it, but said its a difficult job on this engine so if i want it doing is another 75 quid. Borrowing a compression tester soon so...

Re: Missfire on cylinder 3, new plugs, leads, coil and injector is working. Plug is b It Idle it also smells of rotten eggs . This is a new problem :(

Re: Missfire on cylinder 3, new plugs, leads, coil and injector is working. Plug is b just wish i could get a positive diagnosis on something so I dont keep wasting money buying parts till something changes.

Re: Missfire on cylinder 3, new plugs, leads, coil and injector is working. Plug is b I think i may go get some new renault leads. As i put the old ones back on before i took it to the garage. That combined with the clearing of fault codes is the only difference that has happened to make the...

Re: Missfire on cylinder 3, new plugs, leads, coil and injector is working. Plug is b Hi guys got it back from the garage. They could not diagnose a fault still charged me 50 quid though. They said the ecu was filled with fult codes. There was to many to make a diagnoses apparently. What did...

Re: Missfire on cylinder 3, new plugs, leads, coil and injector is working. Plug is b apart from looks like firing order is 1342 so kinda foils that theory lol think its time leave it 2 the mechanics

Re: Missfire on cylinder 3, new plugs, leads, coil and injector is working. Plug is b Yeah i am sure its an electrical problem as it seems the problem comes back with the wet weather. I was thinking it would effect 2 plugs if the coil was failing . But it still is getting the signal for the...

Re: Missfire on cylinder 3, new plugs, leads, coil and injector is working. Plug is b is it possible for the ecu to forget to spark for the third cylinder but not the rest?

Hi all I am having another missfire problem, I had one before christmas on cylinder 4 and it turned out to be a broken connector on the injector so i replaced the injector and all was fine. as title i am having a missfire problem again , this time on cylinder 3. Thanks to the last misfire...

I had look at your website , wanted to get some Fuchs 5w-40. I have noticed you have advised people with same car as me(clio 172) to get, fuchs titan supersyn SL 5w-40 . but there is also a fuchs titan supersyn RN 5w-40 for renault. just wanted make sure get the right one. Is there any difference?

sounds very odd indeed. I dont think it will be the cam belt if that had gone you would not have been able to drive it at all. As its not starting very well I would just try to get to the bottom of that first. there should be Fuel , spark , compression and the correct timing of injection...

If the engine started to misfire, then it is possible that the engine would have been vibrating moving about out of balance. This could cause it to knock against heat shield. Did you notice at all the gear stick moving around vibrating considerably when using throttle? When the engine started...

** no end sorry dyslexic

Sounds very odd. when you say tinny rattly, is that describing the combustion or a metallic sound? My only thoughts at the moment is if something has come loose that can effect the spark timing that could explain a rattle and sudden bogging down of the engine. For example when i used to have...

cool cheers for advice. I got the fuel rail off and tested the injectors again and its defiantly not working, looks like the plastic connector part has come away from the injector. Phoned around and no one has them in stock. but 58.75+VAT from renault is best I got so went with them. just got to...

cheers guys for all your feedback so far. I got the new plugs in this morning still same problem. Only thing i did notice when i went to pick up the plugs is that it seems to not misfire when im going down a hill or if i lift off the throttle completely on flat road when coming to traffic lights...

my clio 172 started misfiring on one of the cylinders on monday evening. I went for a short drive to tescos and it was fine . when i came out to drive off the problem started. Since then I have changed the leads , coil pack, checked each spark plug. they all seem to fire when they are not in...
