  1. 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 

     

  2. 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 

  3. 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

  4. 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 ???

  5. 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

  6. 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
