iv thought about a decat on mine for a while as i have an exhaust sitting in my garage waiting to be cut up and made into a de cat pipe but i seriously cant be arsed as people say the difference isnt that noticeable and as paul says lose's the torque so i decided to keep with the cat to save the hassle of changeing it over for mot's etc

its all up to you really, i suppose its a free mod but if your after the power your be best of waiting till you can afford to drop a diff engine in the car

Wouldnt it just be better to plonk in the 1.6 8v xr2i engine, then if you wanted to turbo in the future you can do it to that cvh engine

My clutch cable snapped agen last nite!

driving home from my girlfriend house at quarter 2 11, when to shift into 4th, bang, and the pedal was stuck to the floor.
pulled up on the side of the road, on a really fast bend, in pitch black. checked it and its snapped in exactly the same place as b4, just on top of the gearbox.

anyway i was half asleep and cudnt think what to do. i noticed there was a small pull in back down the road a bit on the oppposite side, so sillly me decided to put it into reverse with the engine off and roll it backward which as u know u cant do with the engine off (which i didnt think of coz i was so tired) it was then jammed in reverse. so it took me a while but i thn had the plan to bump it of the starter motor so i dun that to get it out of reverse then dun it in 1st to get the car goin agen.

goin up the road then i tried to change gear without the clutch (where u put it into neutral and try to get the revs right so u can slide it into the next gear), this failed miserably and i ended up on a hill trying to slide it back into 1st whcih also failed and i had to switch the engine off and get it goin off the starter agen.

i drove it in 1st gear doin about 15mph 4 3 miles to my grandparents house. so im gona have to tow it home sumtime and change the cable. i was lucky last time it went coz i was reversing outside my mates house.

i gota drive my mams 1.4 tdi polo now which isnt as fun lol

gutting man, atleast it isnt the ratchet, cable is a relativly easy fix...

get your clutch checked out dude, if this is happening often there could be a problem with it.

yeah agreed, there could be a more serious issue

i had this problem many times dan i found out it was the nipple end binding in the lug hole of the cable holder and cuases the cable to twist and turn puts loads of stress on it u need to use copper grease o nthe nipple end m8 wack loads in so the nipple end can move smooothly in the lug hole i had mine for a year now not one problem hope this helps u and the rest of the members on here with the same issue

i used two genuine ford cables phil and they both went the same as the pattern ones grease up the lug hole and see how you get on

wa u mean lug hole?

i know the grommet in the bulkhead dont fit properly if u remember i sed last time it snapped.
