cheers,it was when i was fitting my spax coilovers,they were set at halfway,at a guess it was around 70-80mm in the pic there at the front,can go to 120mm i think lol.

cars back up at 40mm now though.took the coilovers off and sold them.

guys, i wrote a topic the otherday about my engine problems, now ive replaced everything that has been advised and im stll having the same problem.

Basically when i drive along my engine will cut out and make a popping noise. it will then carry on afterwards but will lose huge power during the problem. it was stalling but this hasnt happened since i changed my icv.

below is a list of what ive done if anyone can help in anyway i would be so grateful i could of dropped a new engine in for less than it has cost me to repair this one.

Renewed.
-ICV
-injector cleaned
-plugs
-leads
-distributor cap
-rotar arm
-fuel filter
-oxygen sensor (at rear of engine)
-lambda sensor (on manifold)
-air filter
-all connections (electrical cleaned)
-oil breather filter
-checked for vacuum leaks on two pipes(couldnt find anymore)
-checked air leaks at manifold (couldnt find an obviousleak)
-2x engine management diagnosis (no fault code found)one by vauxhall.

ive been trying to fix this for a month now and its seriously doing my head in any suggestions would be more than helpful

thanks guys


p.s what do you reckon on paint idea. standard flame red with a yellow pearl cars ready to be painted just cant decide what to do with the red?
