Did you fit new rubbers when you did the engine mounts? That might have an effect if they're worn out?

whats the suspension set up like particularly at the back?? if its very spongy its possibly that the weight is coming off of the front end causing it to lift slightly, obviously making the steering feel very light and casuing it to pull all over the place, failing that, the suggestions above are possibilities

205mm width tyres make it torque steer even worse.

Unless tracking is spot-on with XE power in a corsa it pulls you all over the place. Mine was slightly out when i'd had the conversion & it was almost lethal in the wet when accelerating hard...

Get it to Basford Nottingham Allignment Services, £30 & they give you a full readout and set toe so its spot on.

in the wet the other day, pulled out to overtake a wagon and it lit up the pass side wheel on the white lines in the centre of the road. its great fun, lol.

my xe tourque steers in 1st and 2nd. sometimes depending on road surface have to have a lot of right lock on. everything is tight, tracking bang on. it just does it. novas are the same

Yeah i'd say get the tracking checked, the extra weight over the front end is sure to have affected it

Did you have your tracking re-done after fitting the engine?

posted on 29th Jun 05 at 19:16

It feels like front end is floating all over...
