phase3 going to pot





Well yup my 1997 1.4S is being a little weird.

2 months ago one day after filling her up the car didnt start without a good revving as the revs kept dropping to 600, mysteriously the next morning, presto all working.



Now this weekend, it just died parked in tesco. Well I turned the key and nothing, not even a tick, the key bit could be screwed. Bought a tow rope rents came and as they pushed the car back into a space I was fiddling between gears, turned key, va va voom. Turned off, tried to start again nothing, fiddled with the gears and it started! drove home and its been starting better than before!



3rd thing, both brake lights arnt working, only the middle one, all others work, indicater etc. Fuse maybe, replaced, stil nothing. Bulbs maybe, replaced still nothing.



Could I have some electrical ghost haunting my car?!
 


oh god. Remember my mums Corsa wouldnt start the day before she was selling it and the lights had stopped working along with the dials, she phoned the AA and they were sending someone out. She got annoyed and hit the dash and guess what, it went perfectly. Lol.

My 97 kept stalling after giving her a good ragging, the revs dropped really low. Renualt wont do anything about it. We took it to a mate and he adjusted the revs so it returns back to idle really slowly. Havent had a problem since.
 


Yeah cheers it seems to be working really well now, apart from 1 brake light, ah well dont have to worry about it till X-mass when Im home again!



Just want it to stay mint so I can sell in the summer!

O yeah the damn exhuast is slowly blowing more n all now!
