need some help pls!!! about 2 weeks ago i noticed knocking from the engine. its coming from bottom end. can feel it thro clutch peddle. doesnt keep consistant rpm on idle. it goes up and down all the time. can hear tapping from top off engine. i would think it would be around crankshaft. brought the car off a member of this club who said engine was rebuilt by ryan at zedtech. tried to contact the member but doesnt reply! nice chap!(dont want to mention any names) ryan can remember doing it but he said it was about 3 years ago. could it be bearings or shells?

Hi Guys, Can anyone tell me where I can get New heads from ( apart from main dealers and MJP ). Cheers, Ian.

People I've asked say the Zed was never fitted with one as standard, but I keep seeing cars advertised with adjustable steering wheel. Presume they don't mean a quick release wheel. Has anyone actually got a zed with an adjustable steering column, ie up and down and in and out?

Any1 enlighten me ???
