Really fed up of the car pinking! I've got a 1991 1.8 16v and when the engines hot and under load it pinks like mad. I've had the timing done in the past which worked for a little while and i've also used Redex which i think did sod all! Any ideas folks? Also the car has been run for the past 2-3 years on optimax so can't be the fuel? Will new injectors cure this?
Alright all, my 1991 1.8 16v has started to use a bit of water recently, 300ml in 360 miles, this doesn't sound much but it's quite a bit of water. is this the norm or are there evil forces at work?!!
You may of answered this one many times but for my sake please help! I have a 1991 1.8 16v and the fan doesn't work until you reach number 4. whats going on as i'm either freezing cold or red hot! Any help is much appriciated!
maybe thats what i should be thinking of next, poly bushes all round and a strut brace just to keep things in check! does anybody know of a 'good' strut brace if there is such a thing? Or are they all the same in price and performance?
i've not fully decided yet, just drove down to inters and back today and the suspension was really great, even 4 up in the car it handled well so might have to see what other people think as well!
I have the Weitec GT kit with the comfort pack on my 1.8 16v, the kit is good until you start driving harder. A friend of mine has the konis with Vogtland springs on his 2.0 and it seems to corner alot flatter and faster althogh the ride is firm. Should i stick with the Weitec or go with Koni's?
