when i was doing my Zetec engine change i needed to remove the ARB, i did what some members on here had done and cut the ARB instead of fitting tie bars, i cut it just to the mounting and welded a big washer on the end to stop it pulling through, i have some pictures if you want to have a go. mark.

hi Longboarder that's excellent, i've got them the wrong way, i'll will try the other way see how it goes. cheers mark

my old setup was servo-less, i've done some research and i have probably got some air in the master cylinder, i didn't fit a bleed nipple to it just a pipe with some solider in the end, i'm just unsure if the pipes are in the right holes. mark

bore size is 20.6 mm, all standard ford sierra brakes, discs front and drums on the rear, the peddle is solid, but when i brake its like they have brake fade, mark

hi i have fitted a Fiat Punto master cylinder, i've bled the brakes and is no air in the system, test drove and the brakes are rubbish, do i have the pipes in the right place? Mark

I have the 5 speed type 9, didn't think I needed to change the pin as I'm using the larger Capri bearing,

The zetec plate doesn't fit the gearbox spines

Hi, Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? The clutch peddle feels normal but I can't get it into any gear, it's a zetec onto a type 9 I have 1.8 flywheel with a sierra friction plate and zetec cover plate with Capri bearing. Mark

tractor, did you do anything with the anti-roll bar? mark

thanks for the reply tractor, don't think you have the same cross-member and antiroll bar as my car, i was wondering if anyone with the same car as me had done the Pinto to zetec conversion with the race-line sump, i have hopefully put some pictures on to show the problem. cheers, mark
