Long story short put a 1.6 gte in a 1.2 shell. It works or shud i say it starts. apart from timin need adjusting i got two problems that have bugged me for the last time.
One is the gear linkage!!! My god this annoys more than a woman does. Ive tried and tried but it will not go right for me. I put it in reverse it goes forward ... funny in a way but aaaahhhh. i have tried doin it from scratch using a 6 ml drill bit and aligning it myself. Once aligned i ask mi good old dad to hold the gear stick to the left on lign with the notch and put the dam linakge back on. Hey presto cus sods law hates me it dont work so any advice wud be FANTASTIC.
Second is i thought my water pump was in pump heaven but i was wrong. it pumps but: 1 ... the car is not pickin up the temp. 2 ... the fan dont kick in.
I have replaced the temp sensor with the one form my old car cus i no that works n still no luck. Yes i do have the temp wire on the sensor just in case haha. Can anyone tell me where the clip on the fan wires go to? is it the wiring harness or of to the car somewhere? Basically do i use the same clip from my 1.2 wiring?
Cheers folks
