Hey Hull Rover, Good to have you on board. You've inspired me to look into adjusting the throttle housing thingy on my clio 1400cc 8valve. Does anyone know if i can do this? I've not yet looked at it in detail, except when attaching the induction element. Many Thankyous Jeff :-S

excellent - ill get my g/f to compress the throttle whilst i try to find any faults. ( i knew she'd come in handy one day ;-)!)

so did u notice a big difference in performance ?

wezzel, whats the butterfly? is it inside the throttle housing?

ok opinions noted - many thanks :-)

Would anyone like to pass comment on one of these gadgets I've come across on eBay? Is it worth buying one du think? Thanks :)...

Yeah i think thats the general feeling. Ok well i was just curious, i havent parted with any cash so yet another bit of good done by being a member of this e-oracle!! Thanks again :-)

absolutely prevtec. A worth while experiment. put some new spark plugs in today and a little helping of injector cleaner in the fuel tank, so she's running charmingly. Oil, oil filter and fuel filter i'll just get kwik fit to do as i (me and lucas senior) had some trouble find the fuel filter...

Crikey - im only comfortable to get 65/70mph out of 3rd gear, any more and im too near the red! I'm glad im not your engine :-)

there was only a 6lb difference in weight between the 15" and standard 14". This along with the additional traction of the wider tyre, caused a noticable drag effect. Wezzel I'm amazed to hear your performanced improved, and you must have the 60bhp engine correct? Anyway, im just pleased...
