have you pulled a plug lead check for spark? they dont like low battery power as relays drop out and shut ecu down on cranking? if no spark is the fuel pump starting up when cranking??? pos crank sensor??

my megane rally car is running a 182 x cup race engine (they are prety standard) so it has a random steel crank (but i want a 197 crank) steel wods 83.5mm wosner hi comp pistons just going back together with a cometic mls steel gasket and a set of 197 cat cams (rally speck without the vvt) did...

tried on a 197 yesterday if the keys are on the windscreen out side on the wiper sometimes it will start also if you deadlock the car then put the card in the slot and press start it undoes the dead locks

if the car deadlocked there is a problem 1) can you park the car less than 1.5 mtr from the key inside the house???? either the loick button on the key is acting up or the hands free locking button on either a door or boot are acting up or the drivers door lock interior lamp switch has...

why don't you just use the wiring and plugs you had??? electrovanne solinoid ???? what where is it

1) quite comon for the egr valves to fail internally if you have a clip laptop pluged in you would see the sensor supply voltage disappear when the egr plug is connected(internal short )that in turn stops the ecu seeing the fuel pressure so non start 2) for loss of power over 2k rpm check the...

Has anyone seen this??? http://www.uphillracers.com/showthread.php/subareno-cliopreza-rs172-wrx-type-5647p18.html i almost did something similar with my 172/182 rally car last year when it was stripped i measured it up and found the lump would fit between clio chasis but not long enough for a...

plastic cover should be 4 t30 bolts ?

you are correct but 2 holes 1 is fuel in the other is vapour out and they may not be allowed to use a funnel & jerry can like us mere clubmen rallyists their systems may have to stay sealed while filling

check the abs rings for cracks? what is in the multiplex page that page is ok the next page lets you scroll systems to check

you could suffer fuel tank pressurizing if the purge canister is not connected as when you are cruzing the engine ecu pulses the purge canister and looks at the up stream lambda value to see if there is any pressure/vapour in the tank if it sees no change it will not try to purge the tank ...

all of the above have fun and take a spare key we all know clio keys fail when you could do without it!!!

Re: CAMBELT SERVICE, CORRECT TOOLS BUT CAMS KEEP OUT OF TIME BY VALVE SPRINGS FORCE!! from the factory these engines are mildly out of time!! the setting plate almost never goes in easily but i NEVER undo the exhaust as it is a pain and more chance of damaging the pulley tightening or...

Re: CAMBELT SERVICE, CORRECT TOOLS BUT CAMS KEEP OUT OF TIME BY VALVE SPRINGS FORCE!! the genuine tool does have a tiny amount of slop in the cam ends buy neglagable in the grand scheme you only need the crank pulley slightly loose and the dephaser to fit the belt and tension it if the crank...

acording to renault litrature the elimit is .05mm for asembly! but i would skim it after the valve work was done incase you scratch the surface again

lightened flywheel (propper onr) like the ktec or elite racing def make a difference make it more buzzy and better engine braking when i fitted mine not cheap but my old one had loads of heat cracks in it and a standard one was 6.5kg when lightened only got it to 5kg an elite racing one was...

there aint a battery back up on the immobiliser it is part of the uch/engine ecu software makeup the key is read by the reading coil around the key barrel when the ign is turned on that comunicates to uch in turn authorises the engine/starter the alarm is in the heater plenum you can disconnect...

Hi all i am after some physical measurements of camshaft lobes 2 measurements from a lobe to work out lift from a 172 a 182 a 197 and a 225 inlets and exhaust any help would be good! andy

what pd?? renault don't do pd the 6 speed box from what if it is the NDO box you will need to cut your chasiss on the n/s to get the box in not sure id a 197 box will go though? some of the 1.5 dci shafts have knock off cv loints same as the 172 so you may be able to swap them yourself?? do a...

the garage is correct there is just a special sealant around the cam cover but as mickpm said you need to remove the cam pulley and the inlet dephaser and that means change the cam belt because the casting of the cam cover is too tight around the cam wheels it won't come off you can try but...

what was the beach road like this time i did the lloyd stages and it was like a river

Re: Archived Post from old forum how did you get to the valve to check with the top on?? as this holds cams down and pullys need removing to get top on&off???

Re: Archived Post from old forum i use magnets to stick the timming disc on to crank pully(magnets from inside computer hard drives megga strong)

mine has a cup 4into 1 manifold with large pipework

yes the modified plug is req'd and i wouldn't recomend a non genuine it may be blue but is it good quality i have replaced a non genuine one that a garage fitted it caused different problems the loom is req'd as the plug won't fit and the connectors are gold for lower resistance

sorry the engine is out of a race car and been upgraded with steel crank rods& high comp pistons i then swapped the solinoid&dephaser pulley from my old engine it is on ITB'S and omex 600 the solinoid has power to activate the vvt but the graph on the rollers is identical with it pluged in...

is that on the marelli managment?

???????? spoke to someone the other day and he said his current 172 cup race car the dephaser solinoid was not connected and no wiring for it? so did they do somthing to stop cheating?

Hi does anyone know if the original clio 172 cup race car heads are modified? i.e the vvt blocked off inside the head to stop it working???? just rebuilt one and had it on the rollers with and without vvt connected the graph identical checked the electrical side was working and on the previous...
