Re: My mk1 track car blog
well i had another day yesterday trying to get the car going, but still nothing, thinking it might be coill pack thats playing up (im just putting off decoding another ecu lol)
so thought i'd bleed my brakes as everything was all connected and ready to go, jacked the car up, rear wheels off as both rears need doing at the same time when using the in car adjustable bias valve. sprayed some penetrating fluid on the bleed screws, undid the nearside, then went to the offside, spanner on, gave it a tug.........
MOTHER F****ING PIECE OF FRENCH S**T!!!!! :dead:
i had to buy 2 front calipers earlier on in the build as one bleed screw had been snapped off previously, and the other had been rounded off!
so i sprayed some lacquer on my arches i've been repairing and called it a day on the clio, went next door and helped the neighbour get his mgb midget started, carbs ftw! had it done in no time, no bloody ecu's to mess about with
pics of the arches, colour is slightly off and you can see the repair lines underneath, but what do you expect from rattle cans from halfords lol good enough for a track car :approve: plus should look better when ive flatted the lacquer and buffed it up a bit
oh and a pic of my white plenum fitted
anyone want to donate a working coil pack to my cause? will swop for some monies :clown:
