Guy Lowe Posted December 28, 2006 Author Share Posted December 28, 2006 What about the Clutch we are all so concerened I was a little concerned when I heard a loud crack when trying to disengage it for the first time, but I have now been reassured that it was probably the centre plate stuck on the splines I took your advice Delbert, I had a strop to lower it down, not the right hook 😬 Guy SB Lowe o *arrowup*o The ZETEC Conversion has begun here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I.Mupferit Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 Guy, I'm away for a few days now so I'll leave the loom tape with Ben in case you want it. Brent 2.3 DURATEC SV Reassuringly Expensive R 417.39 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy Lowe Posted December 29, 2006 Author Share Posted December 29, 2006 Sorry Brent I have been spending too much time in the garage. I am sure I have a couple of rolls somewhere, just got to find them. If I don't find them sometime next week will be fine as I have not got the ECU loom yet ☹️ Guy SB Lowe o *arrowup*o The ZETEC Conversion has begun here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tre Zarcoff Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 So, where did you put the old engine? I hope you supported it well, so that the sump does not risk hitting the decking if it slips. You can help support the engine by it's webs, as long as you protect them slightly first. From this experience, you guys must be able to set the record straight. Is it possible to change a clutch without removing the engine first? I like cream... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy Lowe Posted January 26, 2007 Author Share Posted January 26, 2007 Good morning Brent, I have just this minute reurned from Raceline with the new silencer and will be fitting it later today. I am hoping to drive the car this Saturday or Sunday, but don't tell the wife because she thinks the reason I cannot go shopping with her is "I have a lot of office work to catch up on" Guy SB Lowe o *arrowup*o The ZETEC is now running here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I.Mupferit Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 Great news, good luck with it. 🤔 Weather doesn't look too bad but beware the icy roads over the Pirbright 'Ring with all that extra torque.

Guy Lowe Posted January 28, 2007 Author Share Posted January 28, 2007 Slight charging problem, car cut out in Woking with flat battery thanks to Boz ans Steve for the offers of assistance I managed to limp home after charging if from the wifes car for 10 minutes. If you think the Pirbright bends can be scary, try them in the dark with no lights Done 12 miles with the ZETEC and I am very impressed with the torque and I haven't been over 4000rpm don't know how long the R48's on the rears will last 😬 Guy SB Lowe o *arrowup*o The ZETEC is now running here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy Lowe Posted January 28, 2007 Author Share Posted January 28, 2007 Brent Gearbox is good, 5 forward and 1 reverse and no leaks that I can see.
