Greeting guys, just got the heater bypass valve replaced in my car. It's true, not too difficult a job just fiddly. But alas, I fear I may have done something to upset the engine.
It does'nt idle, it did perfectly before, but now nothing. what could I have done? Or what should I check for?
Plus, for some reason there is now a really loud tapping sound coming from the top of the engine.
Cam?
Hopefully.
As long as it will last a short time, as I am planning to do a timing belt, water pump, tensioners, and get the 3.0 cams fitted. Hopefully in the next couple of months.
I need to get a new locking wheel nut key, the irmscher one has siezed on a punctured wheel and now will not remove. (suspect tyre fitting garage + air gun)
Just to let you know, the pipe running into the heater matrix was leaking also, so that has been taken care of as well.
I have some pics, but cannot get them uploaded, I can send them to you if you wish.
One last thing, when I had the plenum chamber off, I noticed the 6 inlet chambers were a bit oily, not exceedinly bad but noticeable. Was thinking a dose of redex? Or have I nothing to worry about?
Hope you guys can be there for me again.
P.S. What sort of money do you thing a good condition Manual reflection can get? 92k on clock, good body and will have a years mot on it?
