Hey Guys,
Ill get straight to the problem, got the car Rolling Roaded today for a power run and all was going well until the fella asked what I had done to the engine, (i thought he ment what sort of engine work had i done as they was good results, but he ment it because the results were very strange)
The car was ROLLING ROADED today at 95Hp @ 6006rpm
So any ideas were 1/3 of the standard power has gone?
I came from a 1.2 8v clio, so i didnt really notice it underpowered as such
I bought the car from a fella who had no real service history or anything with it, he bought it and had it garaged for 18 months with the intention of converting it for rallies but then bought a williams.
He told me that it had cams fitted by a local guy (who had a very good reputation for engine work) but i have no proof of this apart from the characteristics of the car : lumpy on start up from cold.
Ive a pic here of the cams (see below) Can anyone tell me if these are aftermarket?
The car is a valver ph1 with 60,000 miles on it.
Done a compression test and all four are the same @ 13 bar each
oil pressure is fine as is temperature (oil and coolant) when driving
It has a scorpion ss exhuast with decat, and an Airfilter with standard box
Any ideas on what it could be? The fella that Rolling roaded it said it may be that the cams are not timed correctly? Anything else to check or change?
Cheers in advance,
Darren
