Introduction
At last he's back on the road and at last i've taken some piccies of him!
Basically first time round i manged to melt 3 of the pistons, so required was a re-bore and some fresh pistons (he says like money grows on trees
)
While the car was apart i also replaced my EBC 'fast road' clutch with a stilo 1.4 16v one and, have ordered myself a new fuel pump and will be fitting a fuel pressure regulator.
We also have a nice new turbo from turbosmart who charged me £300 for what appears to be a reconditioned unit, rather than my own one repaired :yum:
When we removed the spark plugs we found one had actually broken which you will see in the pics.
i didn't take pics of all the pistons but the 2 i did focus on really say it all
the car is filthy in the pics so i'll put some decent ones up as soon as poss, i.e. after a wash i'll also snap some of the engine
anyways its nice to be turbo'd again
i also have a nice sexy uno for sale if anyone's interested :chin:
