If making enquiries dont forget to tell them it is fuel injection motoras I think the normal City E ones are different.
Maybe your tank has water in it?
Drain it then pour in a litre or two of meths.
Leave the cap off and the meths evaporates taking out the water as vapour.

How do you get all the beer in and out of the cage? Bit late for the dry ice I'm afraid, looks like a good trick though. On a very positive note I have my car back! Here it is with the new seats sitting in place http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f50/MikeShallcrass/P8070011.jpg All structural rust re...

I had a look at the D16 thats the V tec one? What about the weight?Is ther much difference? The xtra HP? would the chassis have to be stressed for that? If you have a welder and want a nice engine thats going to pull hard for years then I would put a d16 in. They are fantastic engines, really torque...

Thanks for theoffer. I have all the bits on the wheel which seems to have disappeared inside the house now[ it will turn up] ( :Its just a matter of fitting the new shaft but in the absence of a T1 shaft I wondered if a city E would do as I can get one of those.

I tried getting fatter pipe made to replace afaulty one but they fitted a thin one. 3GCVC can you check your PMs? I think an exhaust shop would charge around 4-600 for the 2.5inch exhaust in mild steel, mandrel bends will be extra but would flow better, I would suggest upgrading the dump pipe as wel...

windscreen trim

Sometimes you can get these parts under a different search process. You need a tame or cooperative assistant with the Honda parts list or similar parts supplier. May get it under Honda Civic perhaps? Genrally they just look up the city turbo numbers and thats it ..not available. Its also a matter of...

windscreen seal

Yes I have but I see you have it sussed. Most glass places just glue them in and thats it. The glass being a structural part of the cab as a whole. The seal they fit is nothing more than cosmetic air dam of a larger rubbery type than the orig black nylon/ plastic. Your car is awesome did you chuck s...

Hi, The TI & TII run on low octane because the compression is 7.1. If the head has been planed at any stage it will be slightly higher compression ratio. So 98 ron would not help your problem. I think I have had this in my TII and it starts surging but no other problenms when running. My 81 TI w...
