Hello I am Dirk from Deventer k am since January in the possession of rx July 85 fb this was in a shed to rest and wait for someone who wanted some money in stabbing car did not look very dirty and he stinks a bit musty inside anyone have a tip to remove the air? Anyway battery picked up the needle placed first motor questioned these ran very easily around oil controlled cooling these was empty but equally without cooling, can thus start but after a few minutes hit he said.
So when the owner made ​​an offer and purchased car.
There had to be done to make conventional brakes and new master and slave blocks koppelingspendaal vervangen.maar yes first MOT on it and it fell into two bands and it was ok
Engine tuning but this was not without a fight I got him not to run max 120 was under protest.
Pulley was not good to sit on this four ways (mireck info) so sideways and marks visible again.
First to measure compression Hoebeke been 7 bar but seemed Spitz said engine is not anything more he is on time but he has not power enough Anyway back to Deventer on the ambulance because I thought the motor is not good so not too far away with him.
When Mireck called but yes that is busy building but I could bring him who has been doing and took him to a long search and check again awakened pulley still had a stroke.
So now some refurbishing here and there and drive but this is fun I ever had a Renault 5 Alpine which was fast but this is rapper rx so I hope there is still much to do with km and frequent this forum visits and much more to do on the rx. mvg Dirk ps car was 10 years still.Image
