Well having repaired the jacking point, floor and other parts I was looking forward to driving my car during the short Swedish summer...but no (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)
I was driving along merrily when suddenly I hear a noise that made me think of bad exhaust header, there was also a slight loss of power. Back at the garage I got under the car and removed the tins under 3/4 thats where the noise was coming from, no sign of exhaust header leakage. The noise is really bad, the only other thing i can think of is head gasket but I cant see anything. The engine a 2.0 CG was rebuilt last year (by me) and I did use head gaskets, the engine has done< 1000 km since the rebuild If members have any ideas about how to go about diagnosing this problem then please let me know, thanks |

Check the spark plugs for one that came out.
Also check the air injection ports, although a missing plug in an air injection port shouldn't affect running - just make bad noise. |

I would like to give a big thank you to everyone who helped. Chris hit the nail on the head when he suggested taking a look at the air injection ports, I don't think I would have thought of that myself. One of the plugs had come loose. I didn't have a metric Allen key so I just pushed it in, now shes purring like a kitten. Surprising that so much noise can come from such a small hole...no joke intended |
