Just wanna thank Will,Blacky and Wenny.

The story goes like this.

I fitted a RS500 style intercooler in july and was booked to go on track at ford fair.Blacky ask Will for me to see of he would check my fueling to see if it was ok.I left the car with Will and blacky cause i was going to get signed on and have my briefing.

I got back to the car only to be told my fueling was really lean and wouldnt reckonmend going out on track.I was told the over 4.5 k revs the engine was dangerously lean.I decided to go out on track and i still enjoyed myself.

I checked the voltage to the fuel pump and found 11volts at the pump.I bought a bosch 044 pump and Blacky give me a hand to rewire the pump.We now had 13 volts at the pump.

Will took the car today to work his magic on it.I got a new chip,actuator and closed loop fitted and a coolent bottle cap off wenny.

Will brought the cae back tonight and i went out in the car to try it.Well what can i say.From second gear it just pulls like a train.I feels like a different car now.Im just happy that i know that the engine will be safe.

Got a few little bits and bobs to do to it now like the bloody hand brake cable which snapped when w
Will had it lol.

So thanks again boys i really appreciate it....

 

Next track day were useing your car lol

Glad I was able to help as youv been wanting it done for a while now

 

Told you it would be like a different car once it was done mush

 

 

no probs mate, youve got a few jobs to do like, and dont put to much oil in again lol

 

Yeh Blacky that sounds like a good idea.

Wenny ops not to worry. I will have to get them little jobs sorted.

 

nice one glenn glad your happy

 

Happy.. im over the moon.I went to work a bit earlier this morning so i could give it a bit of a blast out.It pulls really hard from 2nd gear all the way through to 5th.It will be interesting to see im i save money on fuel now lol.

 

Well done pal...

 

Good stuff glenny boy

 

Cheers Matt and Boothy.

 

Nice one Glenn track action , mite drive a bit faster on track then

 

glad its running as it should - im surprised you still went on track despite them telling you not to. I had my car live mapped by Ahmed before i went out on track just to be safe

 

He went on track but never went over 4250rpm

You don't have to kill a car to go fast on track it's all about the corners

 

Was just messing blacky , never been on track in a
Car meself

 

Fair play mate, glad its now running as it should be.

 

So was I lol it was fast enough for Glenn not thrashing it that's why we let him out in it lol

I was going out in it on the afternoon but thought it was best to sell the session

 

Ow stop taking the piss mr blacky lol.

I defo fancy a few more track days now though.

 

Well i didnt go over 4.5 k revs so the car was ok.

If it blew up i would of just made the engine better.

 

heard you were like a big kid with a new toy today of will lol,had the same problem with mine today fitted new chip and 55s took it out and was running lean,so need uprated fuel pump,fuel filter and a lambda sensor,f--king cossys nowt never goes right

 

There just old cars matey. Do you have to drop the tank to get the fuel pump out or is there an inspection cover under the back seat(being a cossie i doubt there is).

Keep at it bri.

 

Nice Glenn, what spec are you on??

 

Stage 2.3 bar map greens.Ive come to work in it again and putting my foot down in second is just mad it oulls really hard.I thought it was fast before but its defo faster now.From 2000 revs it just wants to go.

Will also fitted the closed loop on it too.Im gonna keep an eye on my fuel and see if itsm gets better mpg.

 

ye mate tank has to be dropped,hopefully should have all the bits in next couple of weeks

 

Haha, you won't see any fuel economy benefits if you keep enjoying all the new found power mate

Glad you're happy with it!

 

glad for u glenn will have to get mine done to keep up with you now mate

 

I had a little play when i was next to a brand new Audi A6 diesel and we were just side by side from off the lights.I was suprised how quick the Audi was.Ive just looked it up on google and the audi has 500nm of torque.

Its a shame we werent on a motorway cause it would off been interesting to see what the old sierra would of done.

 

Yeh thanks bud i know i dont go flat out all the time but now its hard not to give it some beans.


Thanks again matey your a star.

 

Relieved you got it checked, shame that the people on here were right about it though.. main thing is you still had an ok time out on track though I suppose.

So was everyone on here that recommended giving the track day a swerve due to not running safely.

Glad it's going well now though Glennyboy, enjoy yourself before you tuck the car up for the winter mate.


Cheers,
Grant

 

I just didnt go over 4.5k revs when i was on track so i wasnt running the risk of blowing the engine up.


Winter will soon be here.Its going in the garage october november time for for a bit of tlc on 1 of the rear chassis legs then i will fit the konis yeehhhhh.

 

Had a play once with a Beemer 535d twin turbo who killed me of the line but then when we reached +220km/h i killed him again all this was on the German Autobahn

 

Ha ha mint story.I think if i knew he was gonna try and beat me i think if i got my revs right and launches properly it might of been a different story.

Cant beat these old fords lol.

 

BTW it was a UK Beemer and he was a bit surprised in the end

 

nothing beats Will Pedley - a wealth of knowledge and a god honest lovely chap
