you could have hoovered it out with the seats out. i'm going to ford fair if you want to follow me up, or jump in the passenger seat.

 

ha, yeh laziness is a terrible affliction! yeah that sounds good man, what are you driving up there? the escort or the orion? or maybe you have a new toy we dont know about?

Shouldnt those bump stops be cut down a bit?. If you drop the car 40mm+ it will sit on them before any travel, just a thought as mine did

i still use this because it has a race option for the display where u watch race cars go round lol, and the aux in is at the back of the unit, i fookin hate it when all u can feel when changing gear is a cable running over your hand

i also got the air con sorted out in the car as well on saturday...and i would now believe that air con is the best thing in the entire world.....29 degrees outside....hell now about 15 in the car!!!!

small update, pics to follow at weekend when i get some real work done

 

i believe i have found out why the car felt underpowered when compared to the green escort, i think the air mass meter is up the swanny, i went to start the car the other day and it wouldnt start for hell nor leather, it sat on my drive for like a week with me tinkering when i got the time. unplugged air mass meter and it started after a few seconds on the starter. and when i plugged it back in the engine speed slowed till it was practically about the stall then picked up again a few seconds after.

 

ive since cleaned the meter out with some good old wd40 and its a lot better but still feels way slower than the green escort

 

any ideas? or if someone wants to donate a mass meter for testing lol
