Good work, bet you are dying to get it on the road now!
RE: GTD 2.1. - SOS response! thanks lads - Piggy - 30-08-2013
pretty much. very very anxious though. esp as it hasnt run yet. and theres nothing on it that has run before...IE everything has been refurbed/rebuilt by myself....so a lot riding on that first turn of the key!

Get someone else to turn the key and blame them if anythings wrong lol
RE: GTD 2.1. - SOS response! thanks lads - Piggy - 02-09-2013
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!
bloody gear linkages. 3hours at it now.
had to fit XUD gear rod and ball/pivot coz TU wont work with XUD/HDi box...despite being told it would be fine....
now with those fitted...I notice the on HDi box I bought, one of the arms is bent and also now with the XUD pivot/gear rod, it all fouls the exhaust downpipe...which to remove I have to remove the exhaust, the turbo, and the manifold to turbo pipe.
.....got a piece of wood wedging it at the minute....having a cupa tea to calm down and will go back out there hammer in hand to sort the fouling downpipe.
grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. 20min job is becoming a afternoon! wanted this running. NEED this running

RE: GTD 2.1. - SOS response! thanks lads - Dum-Dum - 02-09-2013
A lesson it "it looks the same and like it should fit but its peugeot so it wont"
RE: GTD 2.1. - SOS response! thanks lads - Piggy - 02-09-2013
FYI.
phase 1 and phase 3 subframes are NOT the same.
as I found out today. gear link pivot point is different.
think Ive managed to make it work with the adjustable links.
RE: GTD 2.1. - SOS response! thanks lads - ginge191 - 02-09-2013
What a ball ache mate

RE: GTD 2.1. - SOS response! thanks lads - Piggy - 02-09-2013
will get some rest and get a early night now. Im buggered.
get up early n get some jobs done then get onto the wiring, oil plate and fuel lines. then vrrrmmmm! .....bang.
RE: GTD 2.1. - SOS response! thanks lads - Piggy - 03-09-2013
very mixed day.
it runs. but it prefers its oil on the floor.
After some what frustrating morning, for some reason I couldnt get fuel to the injectors. Left battery on a super duper charge...had lunch...came back to it and it started!!!....so no video of that as I didnt expect it to go...but it then immediately did this:
![[Image: 20130903_142442_zps331fc195.jpg]](http://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l22/Piggy1987_2006/20130903_142442_zps331fc195.jpg)
bugger. theres goes my nice bedding in oil. managed to catch it I think, it dropped 2litres.
So left it draining while I started ripping up the green turd and fitted front brakes.
So fitted the oil cooler, filled up with fancy fully synth oil, and got the camera ready. sorry it fell over.
http://s92.photobucket.com/user/Piggy1987_2006/media/20130903_183758_zpsf103539f.mp4.html
as you can hear....the pipe for the oil cooler burst. ta CJ!
![[Image: 20130903_192014_zps593a7af8.jpg]](http://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l22/Piggy1987_2006/20130903_192014_zps593a7af8.jpg)
so I got rid of the cooler/plate for now while I source some decent pipes.
got it running with inlet on. seriously heavy diesel knock. little concerned about that.....open to ideas/help!!!
http://s92.photobucket.com/user/Piggy1987_2006/media/20130903_201918_zps56a1e2a3.mp4.html
no other warning lights than battery...no aux belt...and airbags...coz they all disconnected!
RE: GTD 2.1- IT RUNS! and sounds like a transit :-/ VIDEOS! - cully - 03-09-2013
get some propper pipes made or you will always be having oil issues
RE: GTD 2.1- IT RUNS! and sounds like a transit :-/ VIDEOS! - Dum-Dum - 03-09-2013
I was going to say that pipe doesn't look good enough but as yor going to swap it anyway.......
Anyway transity sound could be timing

yeah going to....
anyone got any???
(03-09-2013, 08:22 PM)Dum-Dum Wrote: Anyway transity sound could be timing
timing is spot on. I thought when I first started it that the pump maybe too far advanced...so I adjusted that but still sounds a bit heavy!
RE: GTD 2.1- IT RUNS! and sounds like a transit :-/ VIDEOS! - Mrs puglove - 03-09-2013
Whhhaaaaayyyyyy it runs! thats a massive mile stone out the way.
Not as jealous of your clean engine bay now though with that oil everywhere
Did your radiator keep its pressure?lol
RE: GTD 2.1- IT RUNS! and sounds like a transit :-/ VIDEOS! - Piggy - 03-09-2013
coolant not all in yet.....see missing radiator!
it cleaned up real quick. good as new now. well. sorta
bloody sump plug stripped its threads today aswell...joy.
hoping ruan or darren or other XUD gurus can catch up on here and listen to the video and give insight
Re: GTD 2.1- IT RUNS! and sounds like a transit :-/ VIDEOS! - CJ_Derv - 03-09-2013

RE: GTD 2.1- IT RUNS! and sounds like a transit :-/ VIDEOS! - ozonehostile - 03-09-2013

maybe. would be good to, will setup nice and see what it pulls. then de-tune it for winter and clutch life while I save up to buy decent clutch
RE: GTD 2.1- IT RUNS! and sounds like a transit :-/ VIDEOS! - puglove - 03-09-2013
sounds like a right old bag of nails
RE: GTD 2.1- IT RUNS! and sounds like a transit :-/ VIDEOS! - Dum-Dum - 03-09-2013
If it just sounds "heavy" it could be right especially if you were running with an open manifold. Its a big old lump of an engine.
RE: GTD 2.1- IT RUNS! and sounds like a transit :-/ VIDEOS! - Piggy - 03-09-2013
chatting to ozone...he said the sedan made that noise when fiddling with the pump.
the pump max screw is only just screwed in...maybe its that.
its more than just open manifold...for sure!
boy o boy, AN fitting etc for trying to find oil lines is SOOOO confusing
