Chops,

Spoke to soon looks like my low boost is down to yet another sensor problem (Lambda)

Will get one ordered up and fitted and report my findings

The Feistie is nae bad

 

aaaaaaaah wah!

 

Great stuff to hear!!!! Well for the mis-fire issue...........the other one is hopefully a piece of P now that that the car is nearly brand new again, witha ll the new parts/checked parts.

As for the XR, I can't see the pics! damn work IT!!!!!! Love to see her in the flesh though.

 

Robin,

I'm going to get my brother to take the XR along to the next meet we have so that i can take the Escort (hopefully) but if you cant wait then feel free to pop out and have a nosey around it

 

Bling bling xr looks tasty in the flesh

Going to have to come round for a look at the escort paul, have a few issues need to see where a few pipes go.

When is the Next meet going to happen??????

 

P.

Not sure when the next meet is going to happen, will have to wait for chops to get back onshore then we can contact everyone and get something organised. I think we will prob go for something out Banchory way which will include some sort of pub lunch

Just pop in past and have a nosey at the pipes any night. Will be messing around with the car anyway

 

New Lambda sensor fitted tonight thanks to Ad (adamski frst) and 1 extra turn put on the Actuator.

Boosting to 19/20psi and ticking over nice and smooth

I will run it at that for a while just to make sure everything is ok then wind the boost up to what it should be

MOT on Tues so fingers crossed everything should be fine for Croft.

 

Paul cant belive i have missed this thread the old girl is nearly done, 2 words mate ........









































dogs bollocks

 

Cheers Andy

Its been an ongoing problem but fingers crossed ive eventually traced it.

You going across to Croft next Sunday?

 

Paul, what you said to me when I had the temp problem with the Rallye...... there will come a time where there is nothing else you can replace, and that time is soon! springs to mind

She'll be reet for the MOT you have no worries there! In fact if it does need anything I'll eat my hat

 

Hope so, i've got it booked in at a different garage from the usual so fingers crossed.

 

Glad its all going ok Paul

 

Cheers Paul

Hopefully thats it and i can get some fun out of it for the rest of the summer

Did you buy the Shark tooth's?

 

 

sure am mate will i see you and the escos there mate

 

Providing it passes the MOT on Tuesday then i will have it there

If not then it will just be me

 

glad to see her all back together m8,looking good



and the feest ain bad either

 

Cheers dude

How's your motor coming along?

 

things kind of ground to a halt for a while but its back on track now...should get it dropped off for painting next weekend

 

MOT passed bit of agro getting it through the emissions though

Taxed and ready to go (again)

 

Will be flying down the road on sunday

 

mine passed the emissions first time on tues no cheating at all

 

Cool Ade

So is that your motor sorted out then?

I just had to cheat a little to get mine through

 

well mine is not MINT yet but i am booking in with MAD should see the car booked in around first week in sept back with all the new goodies and about 340bhp ...

as for the emissions some how the thing fell out the exhaust half way through but obviously we put it back in and it passed

 

 

Nice one paul, its finally there.

Give that actuator a twist you know you want to

 

Going to change it out for a -34 once im sure everything is ok so it will be fine as it is
anyway i havent got my big brakes yet so prob best to run slightly down on power untill i get some.

 

me either

 

Took ages to read all 9 pages

Glad you have sorted the car Paul

 

Thanks Paul

Since i have done all that work it has not missed a beat and i have been all over the country to shows in it Its now in storage over winter (unless its sold)

Thinking twice about getting rid now after reading all that again LOL

I will give you a buzz in the next few days M8

 

just read all 9 pages and what great work youve done...well impressed

 

Thanks to everyone for the positive comments through my little project

As im sure you all know something like this is never really finished next on the list (if i keep it) are some Defi gauges and some big brakes

I have also recently just purchased the old engine out of YUM but the sensible head is telling me not to fit it to the Escort due to the costs involved with uprating everything else to cope so keep an eye out for my next project.

Hopefully i should be in a position to start that soon as id like it up and running for spring but with major building work going on with the house ATM the 3-door has to take 2nd place

Will keep everyone updated

Cheers
