XR2litre Zetec (UPDATED)

For all your resto & rebuild Pics.

Re: XR2litre Zetec

Postby Stu/RS » Thu Mar 26, 2009 12:48 am

Just a quick update, but no pics :roll:

The cooling system has been completely re-installed, ecu and all wiring complete, starter and alternator back on, exhaust modified but not finished yet and all small outstanding jobs done.

Just to finish the exhaust, fit bailey breather when it arrives and fix ignition problem.

A HUGE PAT ON THE BACK TO DALSY FOR DOING WORK ON THE CAR ON HIS DAYS OFF, MUCH APPRECIATED MATE.

Final post soon hopefully once its been on the Lanarkshire test track (sshhhhhhh, location is a secret :lol: )

foookin, blllllooooodyyyyy Fiesta XR2s.........never again :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

welcome to carnage time chaps, after trying everything to get the thing to have a spark, ripped out all the wiring , and put it into my car, and it started first time

decided to remove the starter to have a look at the flywheel, as the coilpack voltage wasnt switching, and found we had put in the wrongflywheel .....AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

So gearbox back out, correct flywheel on, and then couldnt get the box back on the engine, tried for an hour , and gave up last nite at 10 oclock, thats me peeped oot

Its gettin beasted this afternoon, and fired up for tonite, and on that foookin test track tonite :D :D :D

Back again. You will all be fed up hearing, "its nearly finished".
This time, it is.

Just the breather to connect and a couple of odds and ends, so this is the last lot of pics you will be glad to know.
How many pics can you stand of the same engine :lol: :lol: :lol: But thats where all the work was, i suppose.

All going well tomorrow night, it should be fit for Knockhill on Sunday. If not, its getting torched :twisted:
Then its time to tart up the Saph, OH NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

FINALLY, A HUGE THANKS TO ALL WHO HELPED ALONG THE WAY WITH PARTS, ASSISTANCE, BANTER etc.
YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE. CHEERS GUYS.

Breather just to be connected

The last engine pic you will see, promise :roll:

Think Dalsy should be my sponsor really lol

Thought it was time for a tidy up!!!

Now the Saphs away, going to get some fun out the Fiesta now.
Its been going pretty well, but was looking very tired. So time for some "show" instead of just "go".

Not going mad with it, just a quick refresh. Should be painted and put back together by next Fri, in plenty time for Croft.

THANKS TO SUPERALY FOR USE OF HIS UNIT AND ADVICE :mrgreen:
