General Car Chat / Re: First Vauxhall

« on: 17 November 2012, 23:01:47 »

My first vauxhall was a mk1 Astra 1.3 sr I think in copper metallic and as mentioned before yes it went like stink but smoked like a smoky thing lol to the point that if you floored it the road and everyone behind you dissapered even Q would have been proud of that lol I finally died when it started to make a ticking noise not very loud by noticeable so my mate had his head under the front as I blipped the throttle and it went bang big time he lost his eye brows and singed most of his head when we looked we found a big hole in the block and number 3 piston upside down in the sump strangely enough we rocked it back and forth in top and it in sezied and it started up on the key lol

I understand what you are saying about like for like when swapping the lights but both have the same fault no lights when opening the door or pulling out the light switch does anyone know what colour wire feeds the interior light so I can trace the wire for brakes it's a feed problem not a problem with the lights

General Car Chat / 100w full beam bulbs

« on: 06 November 2012, 21:25:34 »

I want to upgrade the full beam bulbs and was looking at some 100w ring bulbs it says not for road use so I have two questions one will the omega wiring take the load of a pair of 100w bulbs and two can you get done for fitting them . In my younger days I used to have 80/100w bulbs in my escort but I wasn't worried about getting nicked back then ?

Don't have a pic to hand the original one has got the alarm sensors in it and has a sticker with FE on it the second hand one has no sensors and has FG on the sticker if it helps the FG one the map reading lights work but the main light doesn't either by pulling out the headlight switch or when you open he door and the one with the sensors does nothing at all that's what makes me think it's a broken wire on the way up to the roof but haven't got a clue what colours the wires should be I have found a permeant live at the plug In the head lining but no switched feeds. Is there a multi plug in one of the kick panels that goes up to the roof ?

I should have said the air flow is very strong suggesting the vents are connected to something also the running gear is explod not the car but it was auto would the ducting be different now it's manual ?
