Owned it a year today, and ticked over 157,000 miles this week! I ventured down to S-Bits to pick some wheels up from l1ca. For some reason, I had the idea of throwing them all in the MR2 and journeying home. Silly mistake. I ended up making 2 trips and having a nice chat with Peter while I was ther...

Barnsley's not too far for me. 7J front, 8J rear? Or are all 7J?

Where are you located?

If you decide you want one pm me. I know of one that'll shortly be for sale in perfect condition.

We we're at it again tonight. All cylinders are between 165-175. So fine. Decided to try fire it up again, ben had given up at this point. Nothing the first and second try, third one with a bit of gas and some magical whispers and it fired back up. Ran fine. Left it for about 15 minutes and it staye...

My bearing kit from Peter arrived today after he generously sent another when the first didn't show up, crappy Royal Mail. Started fitting tonight, lower one came off and new one on in 5 minutes. Upper one however left the brass insert on the peg. Two hours later and i still couldn't get it off, so ...

Attempted compression test tonight.

1 - 170psi
2 - 165psi
3 - couldn't remove spark plug!
4 - wouldn't crank

Think he's just going to rebuild it.

Apologies, it was on the electrode.

Friend called me today saying he started his car and after two minutes it seemed to run lumpy and then cut out. Now when we try to start it, it coughs on the first crank and then nothing. Just cranks from the starter motor. Pulled the plugs out, they're covered in oil but still sparking. Fuel is sti...

Yeah, sure!

It's an absolute doddle, you need a screwdriver and 10 minutes spare. Easy, cheap and decent mod that improves the interior.

May pop down then!

Swapped the dial bulbs over to white LEDs today. I'll more than likely do the heater controls at some point too.

Crappy photo but you get the idea.

What time? Working till 4.

Yeah I just spliced it into the ground on the stereo harness. Video while driving is for the girlfriend so she has something to do on lengthy journeys.

Impressed with it so far.

Bought a Sony XAV-602BT, got it in quickly yesterday. Going to sort out the handbrake wire today so video will display. http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk115/ewan1992/IMG_20140828_224405.jpg Also took got a panel to replace the stupid scoop, off getting painted. http://i278.photobucket.com/albums...

Awesome, thanks!

Anyone know the size of the screws that hold the Engine Inspection Panel in place?[/b]

Got the engine back together tonight. Looks much better, just need to clean the exhaust heatshield up. Battery was flat so had to jump start, nothing at first, realised no fuel was getting through. Gave it some throttle and it burst into life in spectacular fashion, scaring the xxxx out of a toddler...

Found on the inlet manifold of the 3SGE.

Anyone know the name of part number? Or even better - a spare one?

Also, is the foam between the cam cover and intake needed?
