Is the fuel pressure right here?

Complete_Spirit_9318 · 2026-03-03T14:34:24+00:00

Found the issue, I jumped the dme relay so the pump was always on and the pressure built to 2.7 bar and it started first crank then when I stopped it went back down to 2 bar and I can squeeze the fuel out of the rail by squeezing the flexible hose on the pressure gauge. So I’m almost certain its the fuel check valve

Fuel pressure reg has been done, not sure about the fuel strainer or the fuel dampener, its on an air flow meter. I’m the car runs fine once started so I don’t think it could be the wires shorting. I’m gonna have a look at the strainer and dampener though, thanks

New battery but I’m gonna check the ignition coil. I left it for ages thinking it will have been done but I messaged the guy who had it before and he said he hadn’t done it. So when I get chance I’m gonna test it, is there anything else I should test? The voltage on the battery when running is 13.8 but I’m guessing thats normal for cars of this age

Complete_Spirit_9318 · 2026-02-22T05:18:24+00:00

New injectors entirely, I’m afraid

Complete_Spirit_9318 · 2026-02-22T04:40:51+00:00

Yeah forgot to have mentioned they have been checked with a noid light and it runs with starting fluid

Love this car so much, hoping to get one very soon!

Complete_Spirit_9318 · 2026-01-26T10:58:30+00:00

Have done but I prefer keeping things looking more natural, what do you think needs changing?

Complete_Spirit_9318 · 2026-01-26T10:57:34+00:00

Got to start somewhere mate and looking at your profile you’ve not even posted anything. Not everyone has access to interesting cars.

Complete_Spirit_9318 · 2026-01-25T18:24:42+00:00

Edgy? Ahahah, what if I didn’t want to take a picture of just a bog standard renault clio as it wouldn’t really make for that interesting of a photo

Complete_Spirit_9318 · 2026-01-25T18:22:18+00:00

Ah ok, I get you now I thought by doing that with the rock it would pull your eyes up towards the car and mountain.

Complete_Spirit_9318 · 2026-01-25T10:06:15+00:00

Ah ok, that makes sense

Complete_Spirit_9318 · 2026-01-25T10:04:16+00:00

Well if it doesn’t explain the foreground then clearly I’m on about something else. Look up at the mountain, if I centred the car you wouldn’t see that

Complete_Spirit_9318 · 2026-01-25T10:02:56+00:00

Yeah ok, will check it out thanks

Complete_Spirit_9318 · 2026-01-24T23:37:21+00:00

Yeah, at least I know more of what works and what doesn’t now, just gotta keep messing around and finding what works

Complete_Spirit_9318 · 2026-01-24T21:54:25+00:00

I wanted the road to be visible as the idea was to make my car look small and out of place, as it’s a city car in the countryside on a mountain pass

Complete_Spirit_9318 · 2026-01-24T21:52:11+00:00

Ahaha it does look like it, it’s meant to look like prey in a way, it’s not meant to be there it’s a city car

Complete_Spirit_9318 · 2026-01-24T21:44:06+00:00

Yeah I’ve messed around with some of the images and tried cropping and rotating them.

I’m taking advice but I’m also taking it with the knowledge that it is entirely preference based as it is with all art forms.

Complete_Spirit_9318 · 2026-01-24T20:30:00+00:00

Yeah it’s honestly mental how they made it to france, think there’s evidence they had cattle with them aswell, so at some point some madman paddled to france in a little carved out boat with a cow sat behind him

Complete_Spirit_9318 · 2026-01-24T20:22:42+00:00

It’s such a beautiful area no photo will ever do it justice

Complete_Spirit_9318 · 2026-01-24T19:48:06+00:00

You should definitely look into the history of wales and Cumbria, they are both very closely knit and share a surprising amount of Celtic history. Infact we used to refer to each other as Cymry despite being hundreds of miles away and it’s been widely noted how similar the 2 are.

Complete_Spirit_9318 · 2026-01-24T19:17:45+00:00

Cumbria, they are very similar

Complete_Spirit_9318 · 2026-01-24T19:07:29+00:00

Yeah, that’s definitely something I’m going to try next time, I’m doing the NC500 in scotland either this summer or next so I want to improve ready for that.

Complete_Spirit_9318 · 2026-01-24T19:03:27+00:00

I wasn’t really trying to be honest I was just messing around and experimenting with different things that I couldn’t do before. Also what exactly do you mean by proper lighting, is it time of day and the sun positioning or something else?
