Ok thankyou :-)

Is the gasket for the Idle Control Valve on the 1.7 a rubber type or a paper type and can it be reused? If not what is the part number for a new one? Reason i am asking is because my idle has gone rough so want to take the valve off to either clean or replace.

Would the light need resetting with a code reader or would it eventually come back on again?

My mate has an escort rs turbo and it is running at 200 bhp. He changed the bottom end to a 2 litre zetec but i dont know what car it was from, uprated his injectors and had it remapped.

Just changed the Lambda sensor on the manifold due to poor fuel economy, hesitation and the occasional misfire. Problem is though after i finished i disconnected the battery for half an hour to reset the ecu and then i went for a little drive to test it which went well until i got back and...

Are there different shape plug connectors for the front lambda sensor on the 1.7's as i have just bought a ntk and it has a black square connector but my car has a green round connector?

Better start buying my brake bits then for when i fit larger wheels :grin:

Are the mk3 mondeo calipers from a specific model or are they all the same?

I am also going to give the icv a clean to see if the power picks back up a bit but have read about replacing the gasket. Does this need to be done and if so can someone tell me the part number for it? :-)

It was this pulley I think its the idler pulley. Was yours making a noise and do you have a part number for the tensioner underneath the pump?
