hi guys just bought a 205 with a gti6 engine and noticed its been tilted to allow for the exhaust to fit, just thought i was see if any one knows if this is ok as i no people did this to the mi16 engine and it sometimes starved it of oil.tryed doing a search but didnt seem to be working. any advice? ________________________________________ 178bhp 205gti6¼ mile in 14.2 |

not really ideal, best to get an altered exhaust manifold and run it at its intended angle.Mi16's weren't starved of oil due to this alone, its an inherent problem with the Mi16's, plus they are getting on a bit. main issues you get is driveshafts wearing out especially on low cars. ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

As said, it's really a Bodge but because most people think 205's are cheap it's OK to do this, But as said the engine will be fine, Just tend to eat D/S's for a past-time unless you;ve got some good old ones fitted.________________________________________ 306 Rallye Sptint/Race Car, 205 CTI 1.9 8v to name a fewRoad, Track and Race/Rally car preparation to your personal requirements, Full Workshop & Diagnostic Facilities New and Second parts, from Plugs to Turbo's We now also carry out Routine Servicing www.pugracing.com & FB Page, https://www.facebook.com/PugRacing Ebay; http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Pug-Racing-Shop 2012/2013/2014/2019 Class Winners at Gurston Down Speed Hillclimb & Joint overall, Class record too along the way, |
