firstly i had to change the thermostat outlet to be able to feed water to behind the pump and one of the oil filter housing outlets, so xud7 purchased brand new £3

also had a leaking fuel filter housing so to solve that rather than spend money again on another fuel filter did a nice quick fix with some wood screws, now its a tight as a ducks arse in water but will be changed once its all up running properly

also built another little roof extension on the garage as to keep the doors dry so i can paint them as they swell in the rain making it an arse to open.
then went and picked up my dads mig, not the best in the world but should do the job on the headlight pane;s just got to buy some gas for it as gasless is SHIT when doing bodywork.
thats it so far, hopefully be buying 2 new driveshafts, 2 new wishbones and a set of coilies so i can get the subframe back together and the car back on all four wheels
comments welcome as usual
RE: Bit of fun 205 dt - td_dan - 06-03-2014

RE: Bit of fun 205 dt - Stephen - 06-03-2014
Yeah you should get some gas, they look horrendous
its not that hard really, especially MIG is very easy, just draw circles
Bit of fun 205 dt - td_dan - 07-03-2014
Right first start time and it just wouldnt fire
had it cranking on and off for a good half hour on and off obviously, got fuel coming out if all injectors, timing is spot on, fuelling is set to standard Next port if call is try advancing/retarding the pump see if that helps
Oh and the headlight panel is fitted now to

RE: Bit of fun 205 dt - Chris_90 - 07-03-2014
I'd say more Fuel you useing accelerator why trying to start it?
What was the reason you rebuilt steering rack? Reason I'm asking is just putting drive shafts in mine yesterday and noticed some slight play in it.

RE: Bit of fun 205 dt - padge - 07-03-2014
advance it
RE: Bit of fun 205 dt - Tom - 08-03-2014
Should still start half way in the slots. Wind the fuel in a bit or hold the throttle arm over when cranking, just goes easy incase it fires into life and goes for 6krpm!

Also ordered a xud7 alternator bracket so i can run the xud7 alternator as im having trouble getting the battery to charge
Also it does now start on the key after alot of fiddling with the fueling and the throttle arm
RE: Bit of fun 205 dt - td_dan - 18-03-2014
Progress, as some of you know from the mids meet i finally got it started after a lot of fiddling with the throttle arm so know i can crack on putting it back together.
built the subframe back up and fitted it to the car with the hubs.

RE: Bit of fun 205 dt - Tom - 18-03-2014
Working hard, good stuff! Didnt know 206 stuff fits the 205
Unless of course that was a typo haha!
Bit of fun 205 dt - td_dan - 18-03-2014
No typo, the front shocks fit with 205 top mounts theres just no holder for brake hose
can pick theses coilies up for 130 new as oppose to the cheapest 205 shocks being 240

Fair enough, forgive me for thinking you might have been as much as a bellcheddar as me, but i don't suppose the exciter wire has come off and you haven't noticed..?
Getting there mate, very slowly mind lol. Yeah i'll still take that off your hands, thanks for hanging onto it for me! I'll be going up to Zakk's next weekend, are you?
Bit of fun 205 dt - td_dan - 28-03-2014
Very slow indeed mate i get about 6 hours a week if im lucky as i work 3 jobs,
the 306 alternator was knackered so that should of sorted the charging issue, i find out when i get the turbo back on lol
Na im not coming down as far as i know, not sure if iv got work next sunday if i havent then i will try and get down
Bit of fun 205 dt - td_dan - 28-03-2014
No pics but popped down for an hour last night and due to running out of welding wire thought i would setup the seats and harnesses
had to bring the drivers seat forward a bit due to leg being at full stretch for breaking and gearchange but thats all sorted and the harnesses are all bolted in
