MarineIguana Posted January 31, 2011 Author Share Posted January 31, 2011 OK, Got bored at work so started fitting new polished (by me) fuel filter and doing the fuel pressure gauge still has a leak on the fittings so may need some PTFE tape to seal the threads up but looks nice under there Old and new filter Gauge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Lee81 Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Looking better by the week now. Avoid using the ptfe tape on fuel lines. It won't withstand petrol and could cause blockages in the metering unit. New copper washers are cheap and should seal fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarineIguana Posted February 3, 2011 Author Share Posted February 3, 2011 So water coming from heater matrix I assume Least i know where it is coming from Only other problem I have now is the bloody thing boosting at around 16-18psi which is quite a bit form what I thought was a standard ECU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gavintwopies Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 (edited) Well better you find out now than re-fit everything with ya nice clean carpets and watch them start stinking of antifreeze. While your that far into the interior strip down get the dash lashed out and swap it while its an easier job.

gingergman Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 my ones of them were nackerd, i found it hard to get replacements lol, for some reason some diddnt fit, dunno if tin top escorts had diffrent ones or i think it depended on what speaker covers you had fitted at the front, as thats where mine differd. hopefully mk3 are all the same and you get some easy!
