    Thanks guys, yeah will be running soon thankfully. Track day next Sunday and it will be there. Maybe not finished but close enough. Voa, yeah those things are fun. I've had a shot of quite a few from v8s to 1.1 screamers. Just like a go-kart. But for a track car I'll take a metal shell wi a...

    Aux belt question?

    To remove the aircon just take it off and use a smaller belt. No parts required other than the belt. To remove the power steering would require changing the steering rack for a non-pwr rack. Most likely a mk4 fiesta 1.0 crossflow rattler, bout 97-2001 ish. Is possible but why? Track car maybe?

    Pumacharger mk2

    Yep they've got some nice stuff. Actually had an obp pedal box sitting on the floor of my car last week. Unfortunatly for a puma we need top mount not floor mount so it was no use. To fit the top mounted one the dash will have to be removed and mount it under the steering column bracket, would...

    Pumacharger mk2

    Didn't know you were travelling mate. business or pleasure? As its forced induction i'm going to have to select the cams to suit. Pricey job if i end up doing buckets and valve springs etc, means head off too so would wait till i'm dropping the compression in the winter. like the sound of 8000...

    Steering wheel shaking at around 60 mph?

    Front wheel balance is out. probly lost a weight. go to a tyre place and ask them to balance both front wheels. if that doesnt solve it youve got a buckled wheel my friend.

    air intake thoughts? ?

    I agree with steve. air intakes dont make enough difference that you'd notice much if any when driving.

    Dead Dash

    The fast indicator flash means you have a bulb out as tom said. your dash problem could simply be the plug in the back of your instrument panel came loose or bad connection. failing that i'd be looking for a bad earth somewhere. there are two under the door/sill panel both sides, inline with the...

    TPS Problem?

    If it were the coilpack you would feel a misfire and the car would run rough. Lambda sensor is a real possibility or coolant temp sensor. Could be a fuel pump or filter problem. choked filter can give these symptoms, if its not been changed in a while i'd try that first. cheapest and easiest...

    Thanks to a friend i managed to get a brake res today s/h, god knows what ford would want for it :shock: as you can see the strut brace no loger fits as expected. I intend to cut the brace and turn it to around the servo. Subframe time. Theres a hole in the sf where the metal pressing all...
