wow... realy great car . not long now till its done

LOL i hope! Main effort just to get it running rite for now

Cheers !

Loving That Front End! Brilliant Work! :y:

that looks great brilliant build keep it up

Thanks ! will get it out the garage tomorrow give it a clean and get some more pics

Cheers ! will be a bit quiet now on the progress till after Aprill as all funds are directed else where. But still got loads planned yet :y:

that is such a nice car mate:y:

Rite did a few bits today and i think ive narrowed down my rough idle to be my breather pipes ! I wnt to check if ive got them in the rite places as well so could anyone tell me or directed me to a diagram of where each breather pipe goes please.

I.e brake servo
frp
pollen thing ect


Cheers

i have the break servo breather connected to the one just under the throttle body

Frp connected to the small one in the middle under the inlet manifold

And the canister/pollen pipe connected to the end under the MAP sensor

Cheers for any help

A few pics from today :





Still need a few bits sprayed: morette covers/spoiler

all sound correct to me :y:

Cheers for the help at least i know its plumed in right.
Got a new pipe on order for my brake servo breather as i belive thats to blame so ill see where that gets me !

Cheers

Heres a video of my Idle: I start it up let it idle of a bit rev it a little then back to idle



Now after doing my conversion it idled fine and then one day it did this and the alternator belt started squeaking if thats any connection
It now takes 2 or 3 time to fire up now as well

I have recently

• Changed spark plugs
• Changed fuel filter
• added plenty of fuel and redex
• Replaced brake servo breather pipe
• Cleaned ICV and MAP and checked all sensors
• New lambda

After doing this its a lot better but still not good as you can see in the video
I know it could be a number of things but i mainly want to see if anyone has had a similar problem and what solved it. Any help appreciated ! :y:

Cheers for all the help

So today i did :

• Tested Alternator: 12v on batt/ Engine on 14v so that ( seems fine )
• Tested for fauly earths: Earthed my gearbox/car chassi to batt with jump leads ( no change )
• Fitted a new Crank sensor (old one was damaged but still worked)
• Re cleaned ICV and TPS (no change)

Now i have a friend who reckons it may still be breather related. But i have checked and replaced breather pipes and just have carbon canister pipe going into Fresh air instead of the canister .

As well when the fuel pump primes there is a slight hiss from under the inlet manifold. Witch i take it is the FRP releasing pressure from the fuel system? Just wanted to double check

Next ill try a new ICV and TPS

Still i could do with testing another 16v coilpack but funds are tight so wont be able to afford a new one unless i find a cheap one

Any help appreciated :y:

Quick update :-

Found some data (carn't verify it but its ment to be off autodata for a 97-03 vts ) so i cross check some sensors with my multimeter

Throttle position sensor
Component disconnected
terminals A & B Throttle closed 1000 ohms - 1500 ohms
I got (1415)

Terminals A & C Throttle closed 1000 ohms min
again around (1415)
Throttle fully open 3000 ohms max
and (2150)

Terminals B & EARTH with ignition on 5v
i also got (5v)


idle air control valve (i have 2 so i tested both)
disconnected
A & D 50 ohms
Number1 (43.8)
Number2 (44.4)
B & C 50 ohms
Number1 (No reading)
Number2 (No reading)
Dont know why it wouldn't read pins B&C, will have to look in to it

Intake temp sensor

1&2 10 degrees 3530 - 4100 ohms
1&2 20 degrees 2350 - 2670 ohms
1&2 30 degrees 1585 - 1790 ohms
1&2 40 degrees 1085 - 1230 ohms
1&2 50 degrees 763 - 857 ohms

I got No fixed reading at set temp- So a new Intake temp sensor is on the shopping list

I also tested my Water/coolant temp sensor (green one)

(2565) But i have no data to check this against.


So from this i now know i need a new Intake temp sensor and i have voltage at all my sensors so its not wiring related.
Probably wont be the single cause but ill get a new one and see what changes. Hope this mite help a few others as well.

Some picks from today :




Need to get my light Covers sprayed and fitted !







Spoiler just rested on needs spraying as well !



Thats all for now. :y:

Got all the last bits in primer today. I used white primer/filler because i was thinking of doing a couple of bits white anyway so if i don't like then i will change.
So a bit unsure really just placed a couple of bits on ::




It looks good and matches the white wheels but ive got a thing for Renault Racing Blue at the moment but not too sure if it will go ?

What you think ?

Matches the wheels really well, blue would be out of place. Good project come a long way,

Cheers! just had another look and i think ill stick with the white, like you said i dont think the blue would suit

Car is fixed! my mate came round with his scanner and it flagged up the map sensor.
Sensor itself is fine one of the pins inside the plug was broken !
Was a 2 min fix lol

Done loads since las update and mainly getting car ready for mot now as i know need it for a few months to get to work un till i get a new van on the look out for a decent renault traffic
Will post some pics up when i get time

Progress on hold as I'm moving house but will start again when I'm in. Also been working for a race team! Off to spa soon carnt wait !
