Hi can anyone recommend somewhere to get a 3d printed cone made - 20mm-80mm and say 4 inch long
It will need to be solid as I want to drill and tap an 8mm hole straight through
-
Also is it speed depending or all the time ?
-
Hi sorry for late reply
OK left to right - generally look towards the wheels /discs lumps /bulges on tyres etc
Up and down generally something else shaking like unbalanced propshaft etc something shaking whole car

Hi facets are noisy if mounted direct to chassis but mounted near tank on rubber bobbins you'll only hear it with engine off

That hose originally went to the top of the air filter - just block it off as your using a K n N filter

Hi thanks for letting me know on the oil
As Peter bell says 20/50 in a pinto -modern oil is just to thin
My neighbour had a fiesta that used to blow blue from the exhaust and burn oil at an alarming rate -it was only a chance chat while he was -in his words filling it with oil again I noticed him using semi synthetic 10/40
He want back to a full mineral oil and all problems went with it
-
Hi can I ask what oil your using
-
Hi are you running full injection?
The reason I ask is I'd probably look at crank sensor as a car can idle for ages but when driving heat soak can cause it to break down
But if full management I'd doubt you'd get flooding as inj would not fire
Can you scan the car and record live data ???

OK so to start you know it's loosing it's spark as it's still getting fuel
Get a timing light clip it on a lead when it stops and see at what point it's loosing the spark
If it's coil run a temp lead from battery and see if it starts
If a fault is random it's a pain to find but you know your fault will happen so a logical approach should find it quite quick

Stick some sandpaper to a sheet of glass larger then the head lay it on a bench /table and rub the head back and forth until head is same colour all over -one flat pinto head

All rubber hoses sweat to a certain degree it one of the reasons you don't run rubber hoses front to back

Got two narrow gbs bucket seats ,steering wheel and probably a few other things laying about

Hi this has been documented a few times but it's an extensive list
Budget around 3k to do it properly
The original clutch and flywheel can be used with the purchase of a new clutch pin from GBS for like £10

Yep I'll be there looks like the weather is good too
It could be this, It might be that

Can I just add the zetec runs very high oil pressure - tick over is normally around 8 bar cold which is just over 116psi -your gauge only reads to 100 psi food for thought
