Had another busy Saturday doing little jobs that were narking me, think its my OCD cos if it doesn't work how it should I get the face on!
Firstly sorted out the electric aerial as it wasn't retracting. After much faffing about it was found to be the wiring that was slightly different than on the donor car, so made a change of wires and it works as it should.
Then swapped the drivers door handle so its back to all original locks and being able to use one key for all. Found out that the previous owner had replaced all the door speakers with uprated Sony ones, so replaced the factory ones.
Had to do a bit of door alignment as when we fitted them, in the dark they weren't quite right and had wind whistle at owt over 10mph, now sorted.
Changed the Oem top mount bush for a Poly, makes such a difference and sounds so good, never thought it could change the sound so much. Have been looking for an OBD 1 compliant remapped ECU. not an easy thing to find used, but as im spending hand over fist on bits at the minute £150 to Hamish is not happening. Been offered a Rica chip put into my Ecu for half that from a forum member so took mine out and replaced it with a T5r one that big Pete had in his large pile of ecu's in his garage. So gutted his MTE stage 2 won't fit mine or would have that when he get the forged engine custom mapped. Dunno if I'm biased but it seemed to fly compard to standard, I know there's a few more bhp but it went and sounded great.
Jobs for next weekend are new plugs, expansion tank, samco blue hoses, thermostat and new coolant then gonna get on with cleaning the engine bay up a bit.
After we had finished the car started making some horrible noises from the alternator / belt area. Frightened the hell out of me, especially as it has a brand new alternator on it. Works out, after investigation it was the osf headlight wiper motor that's graunching. It was unconnected when I got it, but seeing a plug unconnected wasn't good so I had plugged it back in...it ain't now lol
Will look at getting the motors off the donor one day this week.
Once again I was masterfully guided by the Barnsley Ogre, so thank you T5Pete and no, I don't want to buy anything else out of your fecking parts locker as its bread and water till payday lol

It's surprising how long these little jobs take and people don't necessarily see much difference, good on you for getting them all done mate.
