[ozonehostile]

shame i missed it

[Frosty]

I will see about putting some videeos up.

Good result for yours as well!

[ozonehostile]

yeah, im more happy with the fact that ive got a base figure to work from now for future improvement

[Jonny b]

Good results bud, these engines do respond well to decent breathing! Considering the miles it's a cracking result

[Frosty]

It still on standard air filter and box so will a cone filter improve it much? Its on my to do list

[Jonny b]

Mine made 167 with a little bit of head work, and a back box, and that was over 100k mileage

[Frosty]

Thats pretty good. I tempted to do a bit of head work on the head that i got on my spare engine

[Frosty]

Sounds awsome shame I was outside getting people to sign forms

[Frosty]

Done a few bits on this. I changed the passenger side skirt as the lacquer had gone funny and got faded. The 1 I took off had been carrying a extra bit of weight



And a pic of the car with no side skirt on. They look completely different with out the skirts



I have also replaced my Avac pipes with blue silicone pipe as the original pipe had gone hard





I replaced the other diaphragm as well after I had done my modification on it with consists of a bit of brake pipe and sticky flex





Also it decided to start playing up on idle again yesterday. It revs up and down again. So I cleaned out the idle control valve again. I think that it played up again as the breather pipes weren't very clean and had the horrible moyo crap in it.



So this time I took the oil filler and breather pipes off a cleaned them all out so hopefully I will be ok this time

[aggyj17]

yea i need to take off my oil filler cap as mine has a bit of mayo in there i think mine is due to a breather pipe that has worn through by the bonnet lol. how difficult is it to take off??

[Frosty]

Its not to bad just take the breather pipes off that go to the air pipe and then undone the pipes that go to the oil filler and then its 2 T30 screws. Give me a shout if you cant work something out

[aggyj17]

I think i should be able to work it out. i have had it all off before when i done the headgasket but its been a couple of years since ive had it apart lol. I remember you saying you have a spare engine i dont suppose you would wana sell a breather pipe its the bigger breather pipe that comes off the top of the filler cap to a pipe on the air filter setup lol. it has chaffed on the bonnet and i think its that whats causing mayo in my filler cap.

[Frosty]

Yeah i can do if i still have it. I think i know the pipe you mean, I will check when i go up my mates farm next. Prob be tuesday night. I think these engine just get mayo in during the winter when the weather is a bit colder.

[aggyj17]

Yea that makes me feel a bit better about the mayo situation lol. ill post up a picture of the pipe im my project thread so i dont spam your thread to much lol.

[Jonny b]

Don't worry about the mayo bud mine gets like it during the winter months

[Frosty]

Ok mate thanks for the pics. I will have a look and get back to you

Don't worry about the mayo bud mine gets like it during the winter months

So do you find that it clears in the summer?

[Jonny b]

Yeh it usually clears in the summer, short journeys don't help

[Frosty]

I mostly do short trips as work is about 8 miles away

[Jonny b]

Yeh don't worry then bud it'll clear in the summer

[Frosty]

Cool its just a pain having to keep cleaning the idle control valve but i can live with that

[Jonny b]

Oil catch tank should stop most of it bud!

[Frosty]

Poss something to look into then

[Frosty]

I have just replaced the electro valve so i will see if it has made a difference when i go home after work.

Also i think i might fit the gear rods i brough of Sam to this and see what they are like

[Jonny b]

Are they the baker ones? Fapping awsome if they are, good luck with the electro valve bud

[Frosty]

Cheers mate. There 1s from pug1off. You got baker 1s?

[Jonny b]

Yes mate same thing though!

[Frosty]

I want to say that the new electro valve has made a difference but I'm not really sure but at least I know now that it is a good 1 I got on and it's all working as it should.

Also I've had my central locking playing up for a while so I need to have a look. Pretty sure it's a fault with the driver side loom cuz if I give it a wiggle it works

[Jonny b]

Defo got the pipes round right way bud? Should feel a big spike in power around 3.5k

[Frosty]

I does seem to go ok though. Which way round should the pipes be? I'm pretty sure there the right way round
