Unfortunately to most folks it’s just a Clio and finding decent buyers is few and far between.
As Kyle mentioned you will get a lot of people messing you about I dunno if it’s because Clio’s are cheap but some of them are thick as s**t as well.
Once had a guy turn up on a moped to pick up a...
Having stripped a few sports over the years the demand for parts other than the running gear is generally quite low, you’d struggle to give it away a lot of the time.
I personally don’t think it’s worth the hassle to strip it given it doesn’t have any of the high value components on the sports.
It’s the mk3 shitter and I’d have to take the whole exhaust off as it’s one piece and the rear brake lines which is a hassle just to swap the pump.
If it was a mk2 it’d be a piece of piss to change I cannot fathom why Renault decided to make the access hole smaller on the mk3. Bloody French.
I...
Anybody used a reasonably cheap metal sheer like below?
The fuel pumps messing me around on the mk3 and Renault in there infinite wisdom decided it was a tank off job to replace.
Which I cba with so I’m just going to cut the access hole larger but want something that’s not going to spark...
Ah then it’s probably an injector, you can swap the injector for cylinder 4 to another cylinder and see if the misfire moves to confirm that’s the issue.
Likely the lambda sensor in front of the cat it controls fuel trim.
The sensor after the cat is there to see if the cats working and doesn’t effect fueling.
Swap the plugs around and see if the misfire follows.
If it stays on cylinder 3 then you can swap the injectors round to see if that’s the issue.
If it still stays on 3 then coil pack.
I imagine lots of folk know this already but figured out the other day you can fit a normal hacksaw blade to a recip saw.
Real handy if you need to bend round a corner slightly to get down a tight gap.
Post a picture of the sensor as I’m not sure which one you mean.
If the radiator is leaking then it needs replacing.
The dashboard lights indicate a fault and are putting the car into limp mode hence the poor throttle response.
Swapped out the cabin filter.
New bosh wiper blades.
Fitted a new brake pedal switch as it was flagging up on the code reader.
Took it for a run down the motorway, returned 55mpg pleased with that.
Backfiring and lack of power indicates a misfire, this could be caused by any number of things but usually Injectors, Coil pack or spark plugs.
Do you have any misfire codes?
If the second sensor is the same as the 1*2 it doesn’t do anything to the fuel trim and is just there to confirm the...
So swapping the injectors didn’t resolve my issue.
At this point I was getting a bit confused as the coil pack seemed to be fine on the multi meter. So I decided to do another compression test, This came back with 200psi ish across all cylinders.
However cylinder 2 whilst it got to the same...
