driversdomainuk 8 Posted November 21, 2007 (edited) Hi Well its taken some time from an oily engine bay to what it is now...but here is a pic of my engine sitting in my clean engine bay. If anyone remembers the mess it was before this is quite an improvement! http://www.driversdomainuk.com/images/engine.jpg PS - look out for the new brake pipe setup, done as rears run thru the car. Cheers Edited November 21, 2007 by driversdomainuk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

driversdomainuk 8 Posted November 22, 2007 Crikey mate that is one shiny engine bay, nice job. Have you got your brake problem sorted? Hi Yes I have now a rear brake bias fitted, running inside the car If you look at pic: http://www.driversdomainuk.com/images/insidecar.jpg You will be able to see the bias value. After fitting it (with Steve Bailey, guy with white Mk1 Escort) tried it out on the road and felt better - so hopefully we have done the job...need to go and when it is dry and really get used to it and play around with the adjustments. cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't suppose you have a black n/s front wheel arch trim do you as some scrote tore mine off. Edited November 22, 2007 by rescue dude Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BossHogg 0 Posted November 22, 2007 great engine bay, can i ask where you got the oil breather tank from ? (i'm assuming that is what the alloy box with the weber sticker is). AS currently i have 2 hoses from the plastic tank venting to atmosphere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry mate - I threw my old arches out now I have the slightly flared ones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
