General Finally getting her back

[ZZR6]

I'm off to pick my Bravo up today after the cambelt/tensioner, dont know which, let go. I've owned her since 2nd Feb this year and had her in my possession for 1 week.

Lets hope they did a proper job of it this time. It did 400 miles from a new cambelt change before knackering up.

Yea good luck man, get a new receipt to prove they've done the work etc. I know it was goosed but always best to have it down on paper.

 

[Helz]

Good luck with it this time round! Have they agreed to do the work free of charge?

 

[ZZR6]

Its back with them

Its lacking power through the rev range. Feels like its being starved of fuel like when you run out of fuel on a bike.

Its also stalling from idle and dropping down the revs.

FFS I'm really getting fed up now. Still got a courtessy car though which is something.

 

[Helz]

Humph What have they given you as a courtesy car?

 

[ZZR6]

Pug 106. Its actually quite pokey too. Just too cramped for my 6'1" frame.

 

[Si - Punto]

Have they got an idea what the problem might be?

I really hope they get it sorted properly for you soon mate.

Even I struggled with one of those (my local garage gives me one as a courtesy car too if needed), the pedals are far too close togther :bang:

sounds exactly like timing is out.

 

[ZZR6]

I really have no idea on whats wrong anymore. It seemed to heat up very quickly too.

The injector light came on longer than normal when starting too.

As for the Pug, the damn pedal are too small too. My foot keeps resting on the arm and not the pad.

 

[ZZR6]

I've got her back. She seems to be running fine now. Fingers crossed.
Now I just need to fix the drivers wing mirror that somebody thoughtfully smashed up. Are the base plates available seperately?

 

[mountainmachine]

Get one from a scrapyard!

 

[ZZR6]

None around here that I can find. I am however getting several folks on ebay that are breaking Bravo's to give iinfo.

Cheers MM

Take a look in classifieds also and post yourself a wanted ad for people breaking cars to find. Good new on the engine though, here's to many miles of happy motoring

 

[ZZR6]

Indeed Helz.
