Dont forget to get a breather on that battery mate. Dont want to poison your self!
RE: GTD 2.1- IT RUNS! and sounds like a transit :-/ VIDEOS! - Piggy - 05-09-2013
yeah got it in mind. Need to drill in some fixings for the clamp, so a pipe plus hole will be done!
RE: GTD 2.1- IT RUNS! and sounds like a transit :-/ VIDEOS! - ozonehostile - 05-09-2013

Snap to that mate.
Pondering bunking work to do my swap.
RE: GTD 2.1- IT RUNS! and sounds like a transit :-/ VIDEOS! - Piggy - 05-09-2013
just get ya appendix out....they give you a sick note.
mind I couldnt do anything while off work...but you're built like an ox so Im sure you wouldnt need as much rest as me!
RE: GTD 2.1- IT RUNS! and sounds like a transit :-/ VIDEOS! - Frosty - 05-09-2013
I had a problem with my strut brace as well. What make is yours?
RE: GTD 2.1- IT RUNS! and sounds like a transit :-/ VIDEOS! - Piggy - 05-09-2013
cant remember...its second/third hand
RE: GTD 2.1- IT RUNS! and sounds like a transit :-/ VIDEOS! - Piggy - 06-09-2013
phone dead....
so no pics.
But got throttle cables swapped over.
Rad fan wiring loom sorted...had to use a handy site for wiring diagram...
http://www.peugeotlogic.com/workshop/wshtml/electric/ac306/coolfan2/fanop1.htm
very very useful.
Need to install it but at least I got the loom ready.
Also at last finished off the FMIC and air intake piping.
Also mounted the FMIC and plumbed in and mounted the oil cooler....my word aint AN fittings a tight pigs ear
wired in oil sensors too
Thats all I managed today. feeling the effects of not resting and doing 8am-8pm days on the car
just needs coolant,PAS fluid and oil catch tank plus little bit of engine bay tidying and heat proofing and engine bay done...so long as no new oil leaks!!!
then its finish interior and front brakes, new pads and paint and hey presto Im done
RE: GTD 2.1- IT RUNS! and sounds like a transit :-/ VIDEOS! - Mrs puglove - 06-09-2013
Not long now!!!
Jay used to spend day in day out on the cars and ended up wearing himself out...dont over do it.Cant wait to see this finished at Combe
RE: GTD 2.1- IT RUNS! and sounds like a transit :-/ VIDEOS! - Poodle - 07-09-2013
As above, i've ended up slipping a disc by running myself ragged, go careful mate, it's not a race.
RE: GTD 2.1- IT RUNS! and sounds like a transit :-/ VIDEOS! - Piggy - 07-09-2013
hope to have it all road worthy today.
tune up tomorrow.
stereo monday.
couple new panels mid week.
paint couple bits inbetween
RE: GTD 2.1- IT RUNS! and sounds like a transit :-/ VIDEOS! - Piggy - 07-09-2013
got all the rest of the fluids in it today. Bit concerned its pressurising. But may just be some air still stuck somewhere.
Annoying my oil pressure gauge doesnt seem to work...hits max pressure as soon as ignition is on...not even engine started!
and no rev counter. Any suggestions welcome...not sure what to do as the engine loom is ph1 xud, the sensor is xud on back of fly but the rest of car is ph3 petrol and with phase3 1.9 nad clocks fitted!
everything else seems to work though, like glow plug light etc
will try the petrol clocks tomorrow see if that works...doubt it though
also my EGT gauge or sensor doesnt seem to be working. And the oil temp sensor light keeps not switching on with other lights. so a morning of careful wiring and soldering seemed to go down the pan....looks nice though..

the bottom panel is in cossack grey...just trying it.
got no leaks on oi cooler though, so happy there.
got rad fan wiring soldered in and fitted up. hope it works!!!!!
also got lights in, air filter fixed in, and positive battery cables tidied and main one with a posh high temp protective sleeve to stop the turbo melting it. Also note my funky BMW part

got oil breather/catch tank on this eve too.
so its bonnet catch which is being a pig to fit, door trim, wheels on, bumper on, and its ready for XUD Yoda arriving tomorrow to see if its worth tuning, or just breaking for parts.
EVERYTHING, literally every little job I do on it, has a problem, something wrong, doesnt work or needs a different part.
Starting to do my head in. IF I make next weekend, please wear rose tinted glasses, coz its becoming function more than form at the moment!
just realised...those pics dont show the BMW part or the redone battery wiring.... hang on...

Good stuff piggy..don't let the bastard grind you down, get on that drive tomorrow and show that French pig who's boss !

I just revved it a little on the drive today, just to seem what sort of smoke it would chuck out back and to get fluids moving round...
and there was an ALMIGHTY knock/bang.
just hoping it was something knocking against something. not the internals
GTD 2.1- IT RUNS! and sounds like a transit :-/ VIDEOS! - devils_fuel - 07-09-2013
engine movement and/or turbo banging with engine movement/vibrations?
I can relate to no rev counter and speedo, I've changed everything apart from the wiring...scrap the shite lol
RE: GTD 2.1- IT RUNS! and sounds like a transit :-/ VIDEOS! - Piggy - 07-09-2013
speedo works. 1st gear is super tight, gates are so close due to way I have to set up things. but good to know I can get all the gears.
rev counter...whats your issues? ...may just get an aftermarket one. But like to know how this works...so I can have it oem
GTD 2.1- IT RUNS! and sounds like a transit :-/ VIDEOS! - devils_fuel - 07-09-2013
Rev counter bounces a bit sometimes, go over a bump and it may kick in and then back out but then again it may start and work all day without issues..,.
French are genius's at electrics
RE: GTD 2.1- IT RUNS! and sounds like a transit :-/ VIDEOS! - Piggy - 07-09-2013
I think its to do with matching the ph3 tacho with ph1 tech. too tired now
RE: GTD 2.1- IT RUNS! and sounds like a transit :-/ VIDEOS! - ozonehostile - 07-09-2013
any conclusion to what the bang was?
RE: GTD 2.1- IT RUNS! and sounds like a transit :-/ VIDEOS! - Piggy - 08-09-2013
no. I turned it off very quickly.
Xud yoda be here tomorrow...to kill it or tune it!
RE: GTD 2.1- IT RUNS! and sounds like a transit :-/ VIDEOS! - Mattcheese31 - 08-09-2013
how do you know your EGT gauge doesn't work, guessing you're just letting it idle so shouldn't register . .
RE: GTD 2.1- IT RUNS! and sounds like a transit :-/ VIDEOS! - Piggy - 08-09-2013
egt, rpm etc are the least of my worries......
![[Image: 20130908_162105_zpsd02728b8.jpg]](http://s92.photobucket.com/user/Piggy1987_2006/media/20130908_162105_zpsd02728b8.jpg.html)
pressurising within 15/20seconds of running.
and fans come on immediately with just ignition on...how and why i dont know, as its the same loom/relays, just the slimlines replacing the fat boys
suggestions on best methods of suicide welcome
RE: GTD 2.1- IT RUNS! and sounds like a transit :-/ VIDEOS! - ozonehostile - 08-09-2013
Do what I suggested on WhatsApp, pretty sure you just have a massive air lock :-)
RE: GTD 2.1- IT RUNS! and sounds like a transit :-/ VIDEOS! - Piggy - 08-09-2013
like the lows though...

pretty much praying you're right!
GTD 2.1- could be dead. bubbling like a bottle of coke - devils_fuel - 08-09-2013
Flush out the system with a hose pipe and then fill it that way closing off bleed nipples as your go.
My car heater used to go hot/cot/hot/cold, bled it a few times and nothing. I then bled the system normally, then switched off the engine and left it to settle on its own for 12 hrs without the rad cap on..bingo, no airlock
Hope that helps piggy
RE: GTD 2.1- could be dead. bubbling like a bottle of coke - Piggy - 08-09-2013
I feel like a dumbass...this isnt exactly my first time!!! but im just so exhausted and doubtful of my own abilities.
brand new coolant in there...was a clean flushed system anyway.
I bled it and left it overnight. then started it just to move it 20yds and this happened
RE: GTD 2.1- could be dead. bubbling like a bottle of coke - Anton - 08-09-2013
Have you bled it properly?
