    Awesome progress! How come you're not using an Idle valve?

    • @ukmotortalk
      @ukmotortalk 3 месяца назад

      Good question, there is a valve in the inlet manifold, but it’s not got the wiring in my loom. I’m not sure if it needs a MAF to work, but I don’t have that either. In theory as soon as the base idle is ok, the fueling can be adjusted for each temperature set and we should be ok…

  • @simonmanchester84
    @simonmanchester84 3 месяца назад

    Great job getting it running - looking forward to the results of the mapping! how many ponies are you expecting? The 1.6i CVH felt fun and nippy with just the 108bhp but the 16v DOHC should be even better - I'm betting 140bhp at least?

    • @ukmotortalk
      @ukmotortalk 3 месяца назад

      Thanks Simon, theoretically this engine should be capable of 170bhp, though they rarely quite get there, it’s in Michael’s expert hands at Ignition Advantages, with a brief to make it drive ‘nicely’, rather than going in for peak power. He reckons it’ll be torquey low down, which should be nice. BHP? I’m hoping for somewhere around the 150 mark, twice what it was originally on its 1.4. The Onion’s kerb weight is something mad like 888kg and there’s little insulation from the outside world, so it always feels that bit quicker. Last time I drove over a weigh bridge with a tank of fuel and me in it, it was 964kg

  • @mr_ecoboost
    @mr_ecoboost 3 месяца назад

    I've binge watched the whole onion playlist over the last few days, and what a journey! It's given me loads of tips and has massively influenced what I'm to do with this ST170 I'm breaking and my Orion. I was thinking of building a zvh with the st170 engine to keep the oem look, but with me seeing how you've been able to use a focus inlet for the ST170 engine, I've gone ahead and ordered one! Good luck tracking the air leak down, and I'll look forward to the next update!

    • @ukmotortalk
      @ukmotortalk 3 месяца назад

      Wow, I’m really touched by that - thank you! Just a novice hammering away in the garage. Yes it fits together all ok, once you grind the profile of the top mounting points to match the angle of the head, it’s all good! If you need the rest of the setup, The inlet pipe is mk1 focus 1.8/2.0 (be aware the auto has an extra hole underneath) I used an exhaust reducer and fitted it to an ST180 Fiesta intake pipe fitted backwards and then a 1.8 Diesel mk4 Escort airbox. Thanks for watching, there’s more exciting stuff soon! Mike

    • @ukmotortalk
      @ukmotortalk 4 месяца назад

      Yes it does, although the sandwich plate/dust shield that goes between them both doesn’t, you need to trim the Zetec/170 top section as the starter is the wrong side. The Escort mk6 GTI rear starter box would be a better fit and means the starter isn’t so closer to the alternator.

    if the tyre is just partially deflated, with a slow leak such as this. Should you fully deflate the tyre first? Or will it be ok to inflate from where it stands? Is there a chance of overinflating the tyre? Nice presentation. Thanks.

    • @ukmotortalk
      @ukmotortalk 5 месяцев назад

      Hi there, Instructions on various products might vary but, no, don't fully deflate the tyre (this might cause sidewall damage). You won't overinflate it with a can of emergency puncture repair, and, in fact, depending on the size of tyre, the damage, how deflated it is, etc, you might have to top the air up with a footpump or garage tyre inflator. Check the tyre pressure once the can is fully empty. If you are concerned that the tyre is overinflating, stop the can (you can always keep the remainder just in case the leak continues). If possible, check the tyre pressure. If ok, no need to add more, but do drive carefully on it, checking regularly. Holts, the manufacturers of Tyreweld, say a maximum of 50mph/80kph for up to 100 miles, though I would suggest that if you are only a mile from a tyre repairers, go slowly straight to it! The important detail is that you get the tyre changed/repaired by a tyre professional as soon as is practical after using the emergency repair can. These are not permanent repairs. Hope this helps.

    I've driven that road many times before and after the tunnel was opened. I really don't remember much about the old route. I didn't strike me as remarkable. Just a bend in the road and slow traffic. I've been to the conservation area recently. Some old tarmac road still remains. Not sure if this was the original A3 or a service lane alongside it. You can still see 'SLOW' painted on the surface. I went on a bank holiday weekend which was a big mistake. Far too many people, their screaming kids and dogs off the lead. The green welly brigade were out in force as well as the £3000 mountain bike riding, lycra-clad cyclists.
