hey all
im having a rather hard time with this stoopid engine,
so i have a few questions and querys.
firstly i know its a renault block, but whats the renault engine code.
cometiks dont do a head gasket for a b18 ft so mayb they do 1 for it in renault form. would this work?
ive sourced some head bolts, 12.9 tensile.
this will help with the head lift, but how tight do i go? 75 ft/lb?
Q for scoff, how much is a lot when talking ignition at the top of the rev range.
ive bin told mines at about 11 degrees but can confirm this tomorow when i pull my map from the ecu as my laptop came back yesterday.
ill send it over if you still want a look at it.
how have ppl in the past plumed in the water system?
mine has no heater matrix!
what rad can i use, is it a r21 or an extra van rad i forget, as curently im using a standard 1.
im using a standard volvo box wich is the m59.
through experiance what have people found better. this or the gt turbo, as after droping the oil i found it verry metalik.
sorry for long post, im just loosing patience, and silverstone is 3 weeks and 2 days away and i want to take her out:cry::cry::cry::cry:
