Goes inside the pipe circled togive a good seal.




Gave it some beans leaving work on Thursday before the North London PF meet. BANG it went and I ground to a standstill.

Lost the part as it must have vanished into the undergrowth . A quick check with Ford on Friday morning I found I couldn't replace the part

Things came good as I remembered the spare throttle body I had and low and behold it had one attached to it

Thank fook for that

 

Your cars falling apart man

I bet a DV would of prevented that

Those rubbers are WELLL hard to fit aren't they, and a little tip for next time, they are also found on XR3i's

 

I know they are on XR3i's as well as the nice man at Ford spent nearly an hour trying different options but everyone of them came back as a delete item

Do you really think a dumpvalve would have saved it. Best dig one of my old ones out now

 

AN HOUR to find that Haven't you got microcat at home?

YES, I DO, PUT TWO ON FOR GOOD MEASURE

 

are they a push on fit? Ive never liked that bit.

 

Yeah thats the badger, a push in rubber sleeve, between the plastic and metal of the pipes.

 

yeah i lost one of them once, lucky i had a spare one in the shed

 

you should fook them off and put hardend rubber hose on it with jubilee clips, runs much much better.....no air leaks...

 

That hose connects to the back of the inlet plenum? Never get a good seal on their as it's a plastic hose. . plumbers tape. . just tho't i'd share

 

I much more for the idea of binning the whole set up and running EFI

 

 

yea, i bet ive got a slight leak there. Might have a look in a bit.
