Although its defo coming from right at the top, loudest when my ear is near to the throttle body.

Main earth is defo on. Earth under the intake is on. Small earth on gearbox side wasn't on. Where does that connect from/to. well anyways..... Engine started, huge cloud of smoke. Problem was, each cylinder was dripping in fuel and water because it had been in the rain too long. Cranked it for 2 min...

As the title says :) Just replaced the engine, turns over fine but wont start. Batt was flat so I connected up to the GFs car for a jump start (yes the cables were the right way around haha) I noticed this earth cable was smoking badly when I went to the engine bay. What have i missed?! http://i198....

Arighty folks, Managed to snap my clutch line at the right angle section where it goes into the engine bay whilst doing an engine replacement. Yes I know - I am in for the typical MR2 clutch fluid replacement which I hate doing. :evil: However I will also need to fix the line - its not rusty so I wa...

I recently replaced the entire pipes. Used hose, p clips, hose joiners and mikalor clamps. I also removed what was left from my aircon as well. and used the route the aircon pipes took to run the new hoses. No faffing around dropping the fuel tank, relatively cheap (£50 ish) and a few hours to do. W...

Hey folks, The tubbies return to the road was slighlty short lived .... Driving back to work today, had a short boost for about 100 yards then the car sounded like sh*t. Slowed down for the traffic lights struggling to keep it turning over. Had about half mile to go to get back to work so kept the r...

Hey folks, Well .... the Tubby started after 6 months today, just got the IC pipework to sort out now and she'll be going for welding for MOT However whilst I have the nose in the air (and as the aircon stuff has been removed from the engine bay) is it ok to remove the aircon rad from the front etc?...

Hey folks,

Trying to repin the ECU today but falling at the first hurdle .....

How the heck do you get the pins out the ECU plug without destroying them?

Hi folks, Nearly done with the changeover from Rev 2 turbo to Rev 3 Turbo. The car was bought with a knackered Rev 2 lumpm and a Rev 3 has slowly been materialising under the lid. Its almost at startup stage so I need a wee bit of help now. The Rev 2 ECU has been swapped for a Rev 3 ECU as has the e...
