Re: IDEAL ENGINES (Proof of tax evasion?)

Any idea where they are based?

Use to deal with a company called Heathrow Engines, very similar stories...

They ended up on BBC's watchdog :P

Re: [Mk2] [NA] Tap Tap Tap!

Guys,

It's 100% engine related, and it makes the noise for 3000rpm upward when i press the throttle 'aggressivly' but not if i let the revs build slowly!?

[Mk2] [NA] Tap Tap Tap!

Guys,

1991 UK N/A 106k

It's developed a tap when under load, it's quite rhythmic, but doesn't happen at all when idling or cruising...

Hoping it's not big ends, but anyone got any ideas?

Thanks

Re: Built4Track @ Spring Performance Action Day, Castle Combe, 9th April 2011

Not that i condone this sort of thing... but a silencer is easily packed with wire wool then pulled out after the test... a bit like a car sized tampon.

Timing Marks... Help?

Guys, I've deciding the timing must be out on my rev 1 N/A, when i did the head gasket it was easy to find the timing marks on the cam pulleys, but i couldn't find the marks on the bottom pulley.

Re: 3SGTE into a different Make/Model

I'd need engine, box, all rear suspension, rear brakes, complete car wiring loom with ECU's, and the rear chassis. Basically a rear clip plus wiring.

Ideally i'd also use the speedo head, but could do without!
