Re: rs fiesta tapping
i know you have the right! there your parts and you ask for them back and they hace to give them to you!
the cam that was in it was a newmans one yeah, from you other reply i've assumed thats been taken out? or will be taken out, and if its not worn then its worth considering selling it, and you tell them before its removed, take care of the cam your taking out as i want to keep it so dont damage it, unless there some sort or c**t they will do just that.
remember, your the paying customer, and they have to respect your requests

Re: rs fiesta tapping
who said you should of got a original gasket? cos if they knew what they were on about they would know payen supply fords
anyhow, best off setting it to zero to start with and go from there.
you can get timing discs from anywhere, i think you might even be ablke to download one to print out, dont quote me on that though

Re: rs fiesta tapping
have you checked fused to see if ones blown hence the horn not working? i would also check there still plugged in.
as for the door handle "i dont feel why u did put a a6 door handle and complete cut out the part out so i carnt put fiesta back in it"
sorry but that did make me chuckle
you have worded it like he put a6 door handles on his car (at the time), to fcuk you off in the future
