Re: MOT emissions failure

Id say give it a good hoon to the test station too. My failed on emissions last year and the tester just took it out the back in neutral and redlined it a couple of times. He says it cleans all the crap out. This is mandatory on a diesel, IIRC its at least 10 seconds of full throttle in neutral befo...

Re: Testing the water. Super red MK1

Proper advert with more pictures will be going up this weekend, haven't had alot of time really this week. Price all depends on what spec it is wanted to, i don't mind taking things off and putting back to standard if this helps.

Re: High pitch whirling noise from engine bay

Sometimes i noticed when i did some work on mine a few weeks ago that my alternator and belt were not 100% square, this cause a squeak only on start-up. I have re straightened and then greased everything up and no more squeal now.

Re: Stalling problem

I'd put money on that Rogue know what they are doing. Could also be worth checking plus leads and doing dizzy cap and rotor arm. These might not cure the problem but if they havent been changed in a while will definitely make it run smoother.

Re: Stalling problem

Might be worth checking the coolant system for air locks, if it not bled properly it can cause a fluctuation in engine revs. There is a mixture control screw on the inlet manifold, i was told that this is a pig to get right so therefore i have never touched it. All the vaccum hoses could be worth ch...

Re: The List So Far

With my mk1 being off the road for a few weeks lately, ive been driving around in a citroen C2. Jumping back to the mk1 i as amazed how heavy the clutch is compared to a modern car, so yes i do think the clutch is quite stiff, although i have felt stiffer clutches before!
