There are 2 ways either out the top with a high hoist and being carefull forwhich you need quite a good lift and that load leveller or out the bottom which is generally easier. And obviously take the engine and box out together. In essence you start by taking the radiator out so you don't chuck a sp...

I though 7ET where the 3 electrode...... which would be correct for the 16v, Allthough 2 electrode plugs are the way to go for the later incarnations fitted to 406 and so on. Usually BPR6EK which solve most Coil pack issues on 306's 406 and xantia etc! whatever the "book" says should be fi...

Gates supply most major manufacturers and were the first to gauarantee the high milleage diesel belt for the BX.
Dayco are also fine and are often fitted by main dealers as OE spec so no probs with either.

I get good prices on Gates so never use anything else

quickest way to get bearings out is to clean the running face and run a bead of weld rpound it with the MIG cools down and the bearing contracts and fall out! to drive them out you first need to extract the plastic liner which is often easiset done by setting light to it........ :wink: and then give...

Jons had the whole scorpion system on and it did sound nice, only fault was the front pipe didn't have the proper twin bit so we modded it using a cut and shut with a genuine front end.

The keypad is nowt special, the number is stored in the engine ECU, and if you have an ECU with no code you can just send the ecu for testing and the test rig will find the code to test it which is handy and cost £20. If youy dont want a keypad, just disconnect it with engine running and it'll never...

thye are usually part of the rear bumper so if you want a bumper youre welcome!

Have loads of guages so thats easy and will cut the vents off as well before it goes! In general was hoping to keep a complete 16v kit in case I get another in years to come but if people want to pay sensible prices for parts then I'll prob sell the lot! but only after the grey one has sold!! as sod...

Paint code of car was EJX not that thats relavant as it pink/ and red oxide in colour ! allthough I do even have a 1/2 litre of paint! Wings are nice and staaright but one needs a hidden bracket fixed which i'll do before they go anywhere. have loads of rear bumpers some of which haven't got a milli...

As they are 16v specific they will be coming off!

Am currently building an extension to my house and its occured to me that there are too many cars competing for the same space! :lol: which means that the spare red shed has to go. We've pulled it thriough the garden with the forklift so before I start stripping it for ebay and the like I though it ...

if any pipe would be soft and likely to vacuum upo it would be the one to the botom of the water pump from the rad which runs along the drivers side and in at the back of engine, uually soft as S**t where oil gets too it off back of engine...

Stats do open in a controlled manner, just watch them on the stove! thermal shock comes from dumping it through a big puddle not a little dribble of cool out of a Radiator. In the general scheme of things jay 8 degrees doesn't sound much, but its enough to screw up the emmissions and fuel economy on...

I agree with the last 2. Getting the stat open sooner will make it warm up slower (bad) and potentially make it run cooler and not as efficiently at normal speeds, if the car overheats then you need to look at the rad and check the fan cut in temps, Just get the switch out and then put it on the sto...
