I was scepticle about it at first. thinkling how the hell can a poxy wire make the engine run faster..... But. Believe me. it made my car go like a rocket. Think people on here said to use isopropynol (or however you spell it) but I thought I had some but couldnt find it. So I had some 96%...

WHOOOOOOOOO Ive sorted it. After having the water pump go then the starter motor everything worked.... Well apart from the age old problem of it take about 1/2 mile to get to 30mph first thing of a morning. Well I purchased a new MAF sensor a while ago and didn't fit it, so went to fit the...

ooh. don't heat it and filter it as it will go through with no problem and take all the crap stuff with it..... filter at ambient temp.

How long have you been running veg for in the car?? As it will clear the crap out of the tank for a fair few miles to start with and then get better. So in all honesty you will change the filter quite regulary to begin with

Cheers Clivvy. Will have a bash over next few days.

Didn't go buy a new battery. I had one thats only a few months old that I got for a Merc I had. But it was slightly lower on the amps than the one I got on the terrano. But what I have got is a set of injectors (used). Am thinking of buying another starter motor. Was going to get one from...

Need to check and clean the battery clamps, are you on about the solenoid on the starter motor? Is it just a case of cleaning the contact points up. Trying to find a nice little battery charger at moment but in mean time will try to borrow one from work (20amp) super boost charge thingy with a...

UPDATE.... Think we are getting somewhere now.... Thought I would start the car this morning, Key in turn over same old sluggishness. off and then try again. 1 turn and boom, it starts. whooo. Let it run for 5 mins and then stopped it. restarted straight away and it kicks into life on the...

Think I need a new charger lol... think mine is so old and rated at 5amps.... not sure of other one I have but know its older. Will get a multi meter too (then try to learn how to use it) Will also try the taking it for a run and the stopping and trying to re start it right away. Will report...

No. No clicks and no diming of lights......

Eek....... Sounds bad dropping a battery. Ok then.. lol. whats a drop test.....

Latest update....... Car would to start this morning. Also would not start at lunch time. Disconnected the battery and put on charge yet again untill I got home at 5pm ish. Connected it all up and turned the key..... Nothing. Well a really sluggish turn of the starter motor (you know the one...

Done them yesterday

Ok. Here goes. Had battery on charge all night and connected it up this morning and hardly anything in it. Turned over a few times but not enough to get it to start (same yesterday but managed to jump it from other car). Left it connected up while went up road and hour n half later went out to...

Does it matter if its - or + gary

Think you must of miss read... Lol. I'm NOT getting a warning light on the dash while driving or running the engine. This leads me to believe that the it's not a charging or battery issue. I think it's an earthing issue. I spent a while this afternoon taking off the main earth lean and...

I have another battery. But it is not as powerful as the one on the car, but it is relatively new. Could I still have an alternator problem if I'm not getting any lights (red not charging light) coming up on dash. I don't want to go all guns blazing at the garage only to be proved wrong...

Ok, silly question..... Where would I find the CKP??? Got to recharge the battery again before I can start it again lol...... I'm sure it's not the battery being ****ed but an earthing fault..... What else could drain a battery down so quickly.....

Ok. Got started....... Another story altogether that is... Anyway, went for a run and have just rechecked the fault codes. Whooo. I got 1 fault code showing now and not 3. The only thing is that it's a new code altogether lol. Got fault code 47 which is crankshaft position (CKP) sensor-...

Ok. Just got codes cleared. Just trying to get it started now....... Bloody motor lol...... As soon as started I will take it for a run and then re check codes and report back. Cheers Gary
