Good man.
I'm just trying to figure out what combination of Gearbox/ratios and CWPs would give me the best acceleration from start line to screaming in second gear.
Is it right to assume an...
Does anybody have a list of gear ratios for F10, F10CR and F13 gearboxes ? or know where I can get them ? Please don't say Haynes, as I've already got one in my garage ( I'm away from home at the...

If it's an air leak, the engine will rev quite high before dying ( all in a matter of a couple of seconds ). I also had a high pitched squeal, again down to the air being sucked in. Have you checked...

I need everything from the cable to the linkage & bracket that's mounted on the inlet manifold of a standard 1.3 nova or 1.3 Astra. Has anyone got one ? email/pm or txt 07970 409003 Cheers
If you can get hold of a hoist, you can take it out from above. That's how I did mine, a one man job ( with a little help from Mr Haynes Manual ) Don't know whether you'll have to undo your bonnet...
Just loosen the bolts that secure the water pump. This is eccentrically mounted, so by turning it one way or the other you will increase/decrease the tension on the belt
Thanks for that MC. I think I've got a buyer now.
Thanks for the replies. One more question though, which side has the square shaped ports. I have square shaped on the exhaust and cathedral on the inlet side. Does this make it a 1.2i head ?
Cheers
Are there any walking dictionaries out there that could tell me if there's a difference between a 1.2i and a 1.2 carbed version, or are they inter-changeable ? Also, are there any identifying marks ?...
Should be easy if you can find the screws. Haynes will help. Although I said it's the mixture screw, it could be something else, carb clogged up with sh*te etc.. etc.. Someone cleverer than me will...
It depends what carb you have. Basically, you'll have two screws somewhere around the base of the carb. One is your idle, the other is the mixture screw.
Have you checked the mixture screw ?
If you've got a haynes manual, it's p*ss easy. They even tell you how to make the clamps. You may have a problem with extracting the screw from the middle ( can't remember for the life of me what...
Does the Irmscher cam have the same profile as a sport cam ?
If so, who supplies them ( either cam ? )
Where can you get a sports cam from ?
Can anyone help me regarding the camshaft fitted to a nova sport? To fill in the background, I'm the one who has the grasstracker. I've been told that a "sport" camshaft can be fitted to a "standard"...
