    Mitsubishi 4G93/T Engines

    Just wondering if there are any Mitsubishi specialists out there that no what the big differences between these engines are. My understanding is that there are a few variants of the 4G93 which seems to have gone into a lot of Mitsubishi derivatives including Protons. As far as I can tell...

    Can I fit a different model's bumper to a 440?

    My Volvo 440 got clipped just over a year ago, resulting in the top offside corner disappearing. Duct tape got it through its last MoT so I thought I ought to pull my finger out and get the bumper replaced. I've trawled eBay daily for months and can't find any 440 bumpers (and of course mine...

    Burning Oil?

    I'll see if anyone knows the answer to this? I've identified the problem - I'm using around 3/4 of litre of oil a week (which is at least 300 miles). When the engine was running and hot yesterday there was smoke coming from the dipstick (which is not damaged in anyway). There's no puddle...

    Suspension Bushes - EJ2

    I got my car back from the MoT garage. He wasn't happy with my tyres but they went through as advice instead of a failure. He also gave me advice on one of the suspension bushes perishing. Is it hard to fit poly bushes for this application? I don't really want the car on axle stands...

    Faulty Sunroof

    Well, I've had the car for about a month (95 Civic Coupe Lsi - (EJ2)) and the tilt and slide sunroof has given up the ghost. I checked the fuse and it was fine and the right amperage, but I replaced it anyway. Still no luck. I can see that the rev counter dips and the internal light...

    Fancy a Laugh?

    Here's a picture I dug up of my first car. 1988 Fiat Panda Super, sporting a carburetted 999cc SOHC FIRE. http://www.torquecars.com/forums/members/twamgl3-albums-misc-picture2517-fisherprice-my-first-car.jpg Note the Halford's grille to replace what couldn't be fixed after a smash and the...

    DVD/ Sat Nav/ Single DIN

    Where can I get this package and not spend loads of money?! Had a quick look in Halfords and the only ones they had in there with Sat Nav were near the £1000 mark! I don't want a stereo that's worth more than my car, even if it does have sat nav and plays doovides!

    Mid 90s Honda Civic LSi

    Having been relegated to my stalwart (yet boring and uncomfortable) Ford Fiesta yet again, I thought it might be an idea to get a 1995 (or thereabouts) Honda Civic Coupe. There seem to be quite a few LSis about, but I don't really know much about these. What's the best UKDM Civic Coupe...

    Driving in Floods

    At the moment here in Essex we're watching some flooding subside. It's not major flooding, yet there are a number of vehicles abandoned on the road as they've broken down in the water. There's twelve cars in one stretch alone in Mashbury! What tips sdo you have for driving in floods...

    CRX Del Sol vs CRX

    I bought my friend's MR2 when he 'upgraded' to a 1990 CRX. That was a beautiful car (the CRX - the MR2 was good fun, but alas that's gone now), and I remember for some time before he got it we used to stand around talking CRX specs and aesthetics everytime we had a couple of drinks. He got...
