Have managed to get hold of an old engine mount & thinking of cutting it down to use as a jig, with the idea of bolting into one hole & drilling then tapping & helicoiling the other hole, when done swap fixing over to sort original. Helicoil drill belt is a very snug fit in old mount so any other pit falls I need to be aware of?

Thanks Nick, was thinking about a jig but wondered if it’s worth changing thread size to m12x1.25 as that needs a 10.8 mm drill but m12 x1.75 needs a 10.2 mm & changing fixing to stud so may get away with just rethreading rather than drilling?

Restoring the Volvo 2.5 5 pot engine in a Focus but have found threads for the offside engine mount to be damaged. To far gone to restore with an m12 x 1.75 tap so will need to be helicoiled, block is Ali so any tips for getting this right first time as it is still in the car & is it worth changing fixing from bolt to stud, head size is 15mm, length is about 50mm & should be torqued to 115nm

General Car Chat / Solar powered battery charger
« on: 03 May 2021, 19:05:31 »
As SWMBO has been told no return to fun factory, keep working from home until August at the earliest possibly later in the year, was wondering if solar powered battery charger or maintainer would work if placed behind windscreen. Don’t always get the chance to take it out for a blast once or twice a week so wondered if solar power is the way to go in keeping battery topped up & could it be connected for two weeks or more. Have no experience of these so any help appreciated & if so any recommendations

Looking at the pic, was this a diy build using mountune parts or did mountune carry out the work themselves?

Had some success in cleaning both sensors with electrical contact cleaner, but both needed replacing in the end

Maf looks ok but wouldn’t hurt to pull it and clean if needed, could also be worth checking fuel filter

If he has ram air or cone air filter fitted the maf sensor needs to be around the 2 o’clock position, could also check the map sensor & o ring fitted near the throttle side of the inter cooler, if they get dirty they can sometimes be cleaned up

Another NO vote on changing the rear bush on the front wishbone for polyurethane, stick to original & don’t ask me how I know
