  1. The remains. There is nothing left to hold the axis so it drops to the right side, useless. I don't think that i can do anything even with epoxy glue for metal components. ☹️
  2. No, everything looked normal (although many times in the morning i have seen it rised) but when i pressed the lever did half move and next time 1/3 of the move and then stopped. The weird is that when i removed the windscreen blade and put a tie wrap to see if the axis could move compleately then it did, from left to right but after further inspection saw that the thread was in his ''last time". Could not ''carry the weight" of the windscreen blade any more so i think it's the rotor too, 2 failures in 1 damage.
  3. Due to multiple vandalism from young people in after midnight hours (those which don't go to school next morning), add a 24 years use and my Felicia has no more a wind shield wiper, the thread it's broken. Normally looks like this: Few days ago i saw that it could move properly and after i checked the bolt i found this: I will open the 5th door cover for inspection of the motor and the bracket but i am not optimist that i can fix it.
  4. Yes, a plastic tank used instead of an Oil Catch can. I wonder what is the budget of @Camera for this project? How much can he spend?
  5. Skoda Favorit Turbo 130 PS There are guys which took it to 160 or even 200 PS. Watch the green garden hose. 😁
  6. @Camera Have you ever thought about engine swap with a more powerful motor?
  7. @nta16 This (small village) road here in Greece is characterized as ''abandoned" from us, the white lines have been erased (from weather conditions, age, no maintenance), has not potholes but you can not drive fast except if you are a local guy. The visitor must be careful and drive slowly although is enough space for 2 cars. Even me that i know this road don't drive ''sport'' style, yes one click faster than a visitor but of course this road is not for testing tyres-suspension etc.
  8. Oh..so you are saying: first you make a custom exhaust, then you work with the engine and then with carburettor or ECU and the air intake?
  9. I remembered the "you have lost power and torque and that's a fact". How the @Camera will make one? Is he a metal technician? The exhaust manifold and the pipes-muffler is the last piece, first has lot (and expensive) things to do with the engine.
  10. There is no "fun to drive" even when you are in a Mountain Route when the situation is like this. Especially in summer the situation was awful, 8 cars at lest behind a heavy and slow vehicle, sweat, the car had high coolant temperature, slow speed and irritation to the maximum.

  12. Obligation to mix gasoline with biofuels According to article 15A of Law 3054/2002, from 1.1.2019 the gasoline consumed domestically in vehicles contains pure bioethanol or bioethers produced from alcohols of biological origin. The percentage of bioethanol or alcohol of biological origin used for the production of bioethers was set at 1% for the year 2019 and 3.3% for the year 2020 and subsequent years. By decision of the Minister of Environment and Energy, this percentage can be increased after the year 2020. https://ypen.gov.gr/energeia/prasines-metafores/viokafsima/ In general, the hot climate of Greece does not help mixing gasoline with bioethanol. From what I have read, it is mandatory in Greece from 2020 onwards to mix at least 3.3%. Unfortunately I don't remember the source or if anything has changed. Second stop comparing with Holland and Germany, they have a much colder climate and mixing is much easier. Academic debate, of course, since here in Greece there is no E10, nor do the companies announce the percentage of ethanol content of the gasoline they sell. https://www.insomnia.gr/forums/topic/804379-βενζίνη-ε5/?do=findComment&comment=59585534
  13. For sure but everything must balanced together and not separately. After lighting all those parts plus work on manifold, valves, carburettor etc is going to be an everyday car?
  14. https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/442987-felicia-carburetor-tune/ https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/262854-felicia-13-carburetor-tuning/ https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/131673-need-info-for-13-carb-na-tuning/ @Camera you will need a lot of money and lot of time, does worth it?
  15. I don't work in laboratory and i have no time and money to send gasoline examples abroad for tests. https://bioethanol.nl/el/2022/05/03/is-there-bio-ethanol-in-shell-v-power/ https://support.shell.com/hc/en-gb/articles/115005935369-What-is-Ethanol https://www.drive.gr/news/ti-simainei-i-ypohreotiki-anameixi-benzinis-me-bioaithanoli-apo-2019 https://www.insomnia.gr/forums/topic/804379-βενζίνη-ε5/?do=findComment&comment=59585534
  16. A 3-3,5 hour trip this way could take 5 hours, i have seen in the past even 8-10 cars behind a truck-bus-tank truck. Especially in summer was a nightmare, lots of accidents when drivers tried to make an overtake, now with the wider road NO accidents.
  17. I stopped using Shell when i learn about Ethanol in their gasoline.
  18. Not always, here in GR when you buy a car with no factory unit intalled the electrician always asks you: Do you want the stereo to work anytime (even when the car is Off) or only when you turn the key? Some people want to hear music while the car ir parked and engine Off, ruins a bit the battery but i some cases helps (romantic dates 💗 ).
  19. One of the major problems in North Evia was this, in front of you a truck or a bus and all the other car behind it, no space for an overtake, here we call that as ''train line". The latest years the situation improved. Now a visitor can make an excursion without a ''traffic'' problem and a local guy can run a bit faster.
  20. I ''know'' it by first hand, i have tested in my Felicia 4 different fuel additives and i have done many amateurish experiments in the past with plastics-hoses-O rings-washers-metal parts etc to see the affect of those additives in those parts.
  21. The driver's lock is the first victim of an amateur burglar, mine is destroyed thus and i wish i was remote central locking without the alarm. Now every time i want to lock my car for a while i have to go to the passenger's side or open the rear door push the drivers pin lock and close the door so all the locks are engaged.
  22. ''be nice to America or we will bring democracy to your country'' The try to destroy-ban the tobacco farms there and now everything is aboput Corn and ''climate crisis'' although those which preach about is travel with learjets, have luxury villas with tennis court, swimming pool etc. They use in Brazil ethanol many years ego but here in GR i hear nagging from some drives (with experience in tuning) about this.
