My thoughts also, is a great ph1 no doubt about it but 4k for a 14 year old clio is a hell of lot to ask, good luck with the sale though

Was the car running rough before you did the timing belt? if it wasn't then its very unlikely its a coilpack sounds like your timing is out

Pour it straight in

Bottom inlets are the same http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RENAULT-CLIO-2-0L-16V-172-SPORT-ENGINE-INLET-COVER-/140979782580?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item20d30cc3b4 This is the one you want, just 1 breather pipe near where the TB is bolted...
