Hi, Puma 1.7 starts, runs for about 10 secs on idle, then stumbles and stops. If I try the accelerator, it stops immediately. I can hear the fuel pump going. Changed fuel filter, put in a non return valve, still the same. Should I try changing the pressure regulator, or fuel pump? Any advice...

Puma does as title. Changed fuel filter, no diff. I can hear the fuel pump go, but if I depress the fuel pressure valve, I only get a dribble - should it be strong?. Still get a dribble after the car has stalled. No response from accelerator during the idle period. How do I test the fuel...

Hi, I've got this leak at the back of the 1.7 engine, behind the first part of the exhaust. I cannot see exactly where its coming from, and I'm going to have to remove that part of the exhaust (plus the driveshaft) to see. Any ideas, anybody?

Following an accident in which the airbag was deployed, I changed the airbag. The warning light stayed on continuously, so I changed the module. The warning light now flashes the code for the pretensioner (4 flashes), about 6 times and then stays on continuously. Is this normal, or does it...

Hi, if my driver's side airbag has gone off, do I have to replace just the airbag, or do I have to replace the module, too?

Just a quickie - should the fuel cut-off switch be normally down or up?

Puma turns over fine, and good spark, but will not start. Should I be getting fuel at the inlet pipe if I turn it over? The car has been involved in an accident, and has been sitting "still" for several years. All repaired now, including replacing the gearbox. Checked the fuel cut-off OK. Could...

Hi, I've changed the geabox, and I have been left with this sensor/connector. Anybody know where it goes?[url]http://i1285.photobucket.com/albums/a595/Salvatat/DSCF0415_zps39180400.jpg Still cant place this thing. On a 1.7, it runs along with the main cable to the positive terminal of the...

Hi, I've recently changed my gearbox on a 1.7, and also the drivers airbag. Had to disconnect the battery, and on reconnecting, all the indicator lights come on and stay on,and the motor will not turn over at all (wipers, fan, etc work). Whats wrong? Also have forgotten where a little sensor...

Hi, Is there some trick to getting the circlip in that attaches the clutch line to the gearbox. It is in an awkward place, and just seems not to want to go in! Do you put the line in first and then the clip, or vice-versa?

HI, Is there some trick to getting the gearbox in position? I've got it aligned with the engine, but I cannot seem to get it to move that last half inch onto the engine block( the engine is in the car). Could there be something in the way, or something to align, or is it just a question of...

Hi, I'm changing my gearbox on a 1.7, but the differential cog that fits around the end of the driveshaft has slipped out of place, and will not return. Can I get to it by removing the drive shaft oil seal and the cog beneath that, or do I have to take the gearbox apart.
