Change the middle sloted rotating clip ring ball bearing and it'll work.

Its a bitch to get to without removing inlet manifold.


I did mine with the Lexmaul inlet in place - removed the header tank though.


Fcuk that, its even harder to get to on the Corsa.

Sounds like your whole engine needs replacing.

Best change the gearbox too. And ECU, loom, etc.

it is a bitch with the standard inlet but ur throttle body has now been moved so its easy to get at. just get standard carb cleaner mate, comes in a spray can if im not mistaken!

u have the velos inlet? if so then its easy to get to, its a small black cylinder attached to the throttle body with 2 screws, remove it and spray it with carb cleaner, just keep cleaning it till it looks all nice. then refit
