Short story, changed my 16v engine for a willy lump, willy lump was siezed so put the 16v back in and now it will turn, but wont catch and start.

Does it have anything to do with these two random plugs i have left over?
I cant find anywhere for this one to go to...

And neither this...it just behind the passenger side headlight, clipped in place.

There is also a random clonking (how technical :lol: ) when turning it over, sounds like its coming from the starter motor. Could i have damaged when trying to turn the siezed willy engine?

Will try and get a video of it turning over later.

Someone help, i dont want to be carless over the xmass period :lol:

First pic looks the the idle valver heater wire which isn't on most clios so don't worry bout it.

Not sure on the 2nd but think its the diagnostic connector?

2nd plug is for the bonnet sensor when the car has the standard alarm fitted.
