Mitsubishi FTO GPX MIVAC type thing
What??? The Fto is a lovely car!! I used to have one and would own another one no problems. The mivec is the one to go for and once an induction kit is fitted the noise is unbelievable especially when the Mivec kicks in between 6.5k and 9k rpm:D , best sound i have heard. Not to sure as to what problems to look out for so no help there mate sorry, I am sure there is a guide on the FTO owners club site and they are a helpful bunch. I think these are lovely looking cars and sound great reasonably quick 6 and a bit to 60mph just a shame it is FWD. Cheers.

Please Help another b***** water pipe
:headvswal :headvswal Can someplease please give me the good news and say this is an easy job to do :rofl: . I have had the baggins bypass so water has been fine for a few months but now a different water pipe at the back of the engine has a slight leak I can see the water dribbling down on turn off :headvswal . I have used SPRAE's engine by numbers picture (thanks SPRAE hope you dont mind) to highlight the area of the pipe i mean, I can undo the top jubilee clip easy enough as the pipe in question is next to the back of the plenum if looking at it it runs to the left then goes at a right angle downwards. Hopefully it is an ok job but how long is this pipe or is it a big job to replace. Thanks everyone. Ant

Yay or Nah on these gauges?
Hello mate, By the sounds of it you did the same as I did and knackered the temp guage :headvswal I went out and bought the PRO temp guage and could not get a good reading with it, I was advised to stay away from the electrical guage and go for a mechancal water gauge, so i took my one back and got the auto meter mechanical one and spot on it is i might say, and comes with a pale silver face and the numbers light up blue. if you need these then i will send you a link as they are so cheap and work perfect plus i got the water temp and also boost guage for about 35-40 all in BARGAIN. :hyper: Cheers Ant

no whoosh coming from new fitted dump valves
Hello, Sorry I have not been following this thread for a while, the ones I sold to Krsmayo as said before about cutting the springs I also had to lube the pistons up. To do this you have to take them off the car :headvswal then unscrew the top and remove the spring and washers if you used them, now get a strong metal object that will fit in the end of the dump valve and push the piston out of the dump valve completely, if this is very hard then you have found your problem, with one of mine I had to get the hammer on the end to budge the piston out, if you think about it if you cant push it out how can the pressure of 7-10 psi push it up and down?? now lube up the internal walls of the dump valve and all around the piston, I used normal grease for this and no probs on mine (Krsmayo any probs??) then keep sliding it in and out until you can virtually push with your fingers. Then put all back together refit and hopefully problem solved and now you can enjoy the woooosshhh. :hyper: Hope this helps, Ant

5-40 or 10-60 - no wars please
Hello all, Firstly I do not want to start any mass-debates or anything just a quick opinion from those in the knowledge on which to use. :dance: I have always used Millers XFS 5-40w and am now due an oil change so was looking at the Castrol RS 10-60w would this be a good move or shall i stay using the same as always?? If it makes any difference my TT is running 12psi and has 67000 miles. Thanks again, Ant
