Just had my car busted into by some crack head for my stero, smashing my drivers window in the process, what models have the same glass as my 172 cup mk2 53 plate Cheers, Matt

Jimmy Shep, and you buddy! Yeah make sure you do mate! Gonna take a trip to Infinity about that exhaust, wouldn't mind a listen to yours first though, stripped the rear out today and tidy'd that boot up lol got my audio leads sorted too! Added your mate on facebook, find me on there and keep...

JLS and the Flamer :) nice to meet you guys! Let me know about the upcoming meets, Matt.

please :( x

Booked it in for specialist diagnostics this coming tuesday, will let them them diagnose and i'll replace it myself. Will update with the out come. Cheers for the suggestions and help guys, matt

Spotted you earlier on, just past the chippy behind the BRI, nice Mondial 172 parked off the road with CS.net stickers! Im just up the road from you if your local! Matt

What does it do, if it's no needed?

That should enlarge now if you click on it, realised you couldn't really make out what was there! lol

Do i have any of these faults? Thanks for that though mate! Seems like you know your stuff :)

yeah correct locking tools Lemonnobby1, runs fine once you pull away over 1000rpms?

What is it, it does down to near the horn? Seems to be restricting the revs on tick over, suffering with a lump idle on tick over (just been rebuilt) When i take this off, it grabs back say another 100 rpm, but is still slightly lumpy, when i put it back on, it starves it slightly. Any ideas?

lambpie - sounds logical mate, didn't even cross my mind that it could be the amount of fuel ;)

and

this mean anything?

Hi guys , could anyone help identify this error code I'm getting after the old stalk button pressed in before turning the key over. Have just rebuilt the engine, Parts replaced, Big end bearings, APR's, Rings, Valves, Oil Pump, Water Pump, Cambelt Kit, All Gaskets + Seals, obviously...

I was kidding ;) But seriously, what would you say is safe?

I want a refund Cs.net!!!

It wont start now either?

Just tried that from cold... bouncing off the limiter in 1st gear! It didn't last 20 minutes though? It didn't come up to temp either?

Don't even want to say this, but really? lol

What's the general consensus for running a F4R in? Guessing it varies with what you replace? My replacements; Big end bearings, APR's, Rings, Valves, Oil Pump, Water Pump, Cambelt Kit, All Gaskets + Seal Thanks in advance, matt

She's running, sounding sweet as a nut too ;) pardon the pun! Not sure about torque'ing used bolts up mate, literally had a set I ordered before ordering a full head gasket set which came with another set (dunno if that makes sense) meh, so used them anyway. If anyone's after a set, let me know!

I reckon it would of made quite a racket if I did just fire it over :P Lol at your dads response! Have you done your belts?

I was worried to begin with, allot of stigma on here that its too complicated for anyone but a Renault specialist to work on, but in my honest opinion I don't think that's the case as long as you have the right tools and I suppose a fair bit of mechanical knowledge, Will say a big thanks to...

Danny, not very clever I know! Least it wasn't anything more serious. Luckily I had another set of new head bolts, Should have it running by tomorrow :)

Sorted :) had a bolt sitting on top of the piston :/ must have fallen through! Cheers for all ideas guys

Yep, bottom end locking pin was in mate :/ no new oil jets fitted, sump off, nothing suspect either, could it have anything to do with the fly wheel? Really strange :(

^ surely it's not possible for the cams to be fitted in correctly if it's been timed up with the correct tools?

Have checked the timing again mate, it's spot on still, so nothings slipped :/

It wasn't in gear :/ and it wont turn over without the plugs in! Rocker off, nothing suspect starring at me! Sump off tomorrow to inspect the bottom end. Any other idea's. Will turn 3/4, and then back 3/4's Cheers guys, anyone nr bristol wanna come and get involved???
