Looking for a bit of info regarding standard throttle body? Should the butterfly valve inside be free? Going to replace it. Think this might be causing the issues. Would the throttle body off my 182 work for the time being? Cheers

Cheers for that, yeah sorry didn’t mean to offend or that by not being a member. I’ll do that right now. Yeah I’m by no means a mechanic but i guess i’ll Have to find someone near me with a clip. Thanks again for the info and keep your eyes peeled on this post as no doubt i’ll Have some more...

This is what I’ve got for an air intake. I’ve not had the car long and sadly everything that’s been done wasn’t by myself.

Cheers for that! Hopefully it’s something as simple as the throttle body. Would this through up the check injectors display?

Hi guys! I’ve purchased a 197 a couple months back, had a cracked manifold so replaced that with the decat mani. It had the check injectors light on the dash I thought this would be down to the old manifold but it’s still on and also the cars in limp mode? Struggling to reach 3k revs etc. I had...

Would the spreader plates not be welded on the cage already? When bolting through I take it you’d just make a pilot and make sure you’re clear of anything important? He’s at the other end of the country unfortunately. If I need to the spreader plates welded I might just get a professional to do...

Yeah rear only sorry. It’s from a Tim finch I think his name is? Seems to be the go to guy for clio parts.

Hope this is okay to update, thought I would do this rather than make a new thread. I’m now planning purchasing a cage. How do I go about fitting these? Will the dash need to be stripped and windscreen out? Also do the plates fit into existing points or how do i go about fixing it? Absolute...

Perfect, I noticed there was a sensor pocket on the mani just wasn’t 100%. Cheers!

This the Ktec one? That’s pretty much excactly the look i’d be going for! Beautiful car btw

Hi people. I’m new to the forum and have been following a few threads and they have helped tonnes but thought I would make my own to get a bit more info specific to my situation. Anyway I recently purchased a 197 for a very good price, I think. Reason being it’s got a few issues, mainly being...

Sorry to clog the post, my manifold is completely ruined that’s currently on my 197, I’ve purchased a used manifold off eBay and judging by the photos it hadn’t done a lot of miles. When I move it around/shake it there’s a noise coming from the cat sounds like the internals have come loose? Does...
