Gareth Posted May 17, 2007 Report Posted May 17, 2007 That's well poopy Ian m8 As others have said at least it was found now instead of when the motor decided to lunch it's internals I've always found that no matter how good a classic is, it's always gonna cost u a few more quid... Chin up tho matey, jus be glad that it doesn't need a load of weldin too
emu Posted May 17, 2007 Report Posted May 17, 2007 FOE is my only form of transport at the mo, not sure if i wanna risk it at the mo, i will decide on the day What sort of excuse is that?? I guess i asked for that Too bloody right
emu Posted May 17, 2007 Report Posted May 17, 2007 just before Ian got it he had to have a new bottom end too What happened to the old one?? Perhaps it has been running lean for a while and thats what killed that one. Hope you get it sorted without too much drama mate
DEP Posted May 18, 2007 Author Report Posted May 18, 2007 Thanks for your kind words people, Mark, thanks for the pm, and i hear what your saying mate, apparently the car had an L7 ECU, which i think the guy said were quite difficult to get hold of And yes deffo a fuelling problem, the problem is there is nt any at the top end At the end of the day, i do trust the garage that have got the car, they are very friendly and helpful. I will try and get the guy on here to explain what exactly is going on.
DEP Posted May 18, 2007 Author Report Posted May 18, 2007 just before Ian got it he had to have a new bottom end too What happened to the old one?? Perhaps it has been running lean for a while and thats what killed that one. Yeah, thats what the guy said
4parajon Posted May 18, 2007 Report Posted May 18, 2007 Gutted for you mate Hope its sorted soon for you
Twinkle Posted May 18, 2007 Report Posted May 18, 2007 gutted m8 at least you found out before you lunched the motor
Jeff HPE Motorsport Posted May 18, 2007 Report Posted May 18, 2007 Thats bad luck or as you have said already. (sh*t happens). Sorry for you mate.... Jeff Harris...
105Speed Posted May 18, 2007 Report Posted May 18, 2007 Unfortunatly mate, i think it is gonna cost a bit, they are saying i need to change the management system, as the one thats in there, is no good and restricting it, they are talking about uprating to a Motech system, Also found out today that fuel pump is the wrong type, its basically not upto the job I know you say you trust the garage the car is at but I think your wallet would benefit greatly from speaking to someone like Stu at Motorsport Developments up in Blackpool about cossie engines and management, either standard or after market. OR Give Steve Scott a ring at A1 Rally Sport as he may very well have everything you need on the shelf, he doesnt charge the earth, and knows what he's at with Cossie motors, whatever they are in.
Slik 50 Posted May 18, 2007 Report Posted May 18, 2007 I know you say you trust the garage the car is at but I think your wallet would benefit greatly from speaking to someone like Stu at Motorsport Developments up in Blackpool about cossie engines and management, either standard or after market. I dont know him personally but I know a few ladds with cossy's from around here and they speak very highly about him, Apparently he realy knows his stuff
