Couple of questions

[Fozzy]

Question one - Emmas Dturbo has started to act strangely when starting the car (letting glow plug light go out then turning key) nothing happens just a click, this may not always happen and sometimes it happens a couple of times before it actually turns over and starts. Once it turns over it starts no problem at all. Not sure if this is down to the one earthing point being used on the pass chassis leg as the second earthing point has a bolt snapped in it.


Also whilst driving it today it kept getting a flat spot when driving in thrid gear around 2000rpm as if the fuel temporarily cut off or the clutch slipped momentarily, this was more noticeable going uphill. But doesn't seem to have any problem when pushing it on motorways it pulls really well in 4th and 5th.

Any ideas whats causing all these? Starting to give up with 306's they seem to have been nothing but problems this month.

Finally just a quick one. I know ive read it somewhere before but whats the part on the front of this bosch for and is it a good or a bad thing to have.



I found one in a scrap yard but the one i have at home has a blanking plate in its place. If its better to blank it is it just a case of swapping parts over?

Thanks
