  1. Sorry but it's PCV or PRV? I read from other drivers that have a problem with PCV when does not work properly.
  2. I want to make an experiment to remove it just for few kilometers to see hoe the engine will work. As for the hose that drives emissions to the throttle what must i do? To put a small filter as previous or the emissions must turn back to the engine to be burned?
  3. Just an intake pipe, nothing ''special'' about the turbulences -the specific air pressure etc that some drivers say? As for the hose that drives emissions to the throttle? A small filter can do the job or the emissions must turn back to the engine to be burned?
  4. In the past i have read many opinions about that cover, some say we needed some say it's not necessary. Leave it as is, the factory knows better Remove it, you can make inspections work better without it Leave it, cover some crucial parts Remove it because preserves heat and does not let the engine cool faster Leave it, covers the noise from the engine Remove it does not protect from the noise at all Leave it because driver the incoming air with a specific pressure to the throttle Remove it because the air will entrance to the throttle without any obstacle Leave it, protects from air turbulence as comes from the filter box Remove it as the same do the guys with cold air intakes. plus some other opinions that i am not remember now. Another issue is the hose that begins from beneath the engine oil cap and goes to the throttle. Leave it, it is ''oiling'' the throttle Remove it, transfer dirt inside the throttle Keep it but put in the end a small filter No the filter after some years gets dirty and the dirt returns back Put an oil catch can Leave it free No that's not good for the environment Keep it but not block the end because the pressure will make the cap pop-up plus some other opinions that i am not remember now. Gentlemen, what's your opinion about those matters?
  5. Let's hope that vibrations + cables ties won't hurt the thin metallic folds of the radiator in long term use. In high speed driving (national road) the auxiliary fan will spin alone?
  6. We can screw the upper part of the new fan on the plastic radiator duct but what about the lower part? Bracket of some kind of patend?
  7. Hear at 0:53 till 1:27. We can not use Puller fan since we have that factory metal cover but isn't risky to cut it and install one?
  8. The one with the 6 blades? Replace the stock (for example) with one like this? https://www.autopartsnow.gr/wateradiator/1271--spal-36cm-12v-.html The high performance fan can be used to replace the factory product for more efficient cooling. It allows more air to circulate around the radiator so less horsepower is needed. It also has an ultra-slim design so the fan can be easily installed in your cooler, in the most convenient position to allow more room for other aftermarket components.
  9. I thought this auxiliary fan will have one scale only (manually by a switch from the driver) and will be used for harsh traffic situations only.
  10. 1) The position of the auxiliary is crucial? I mean as we look the radiator left or right? On the right is the stock fan and the auxiliary will push air to him. 2) Will work independently or together with the stock?
  11. I don't know if a local car refrigeration technician wants to start such a project (cutitng and diversing pipes etc). Usually they start the excuses ''don't do it, leave it as is stock, don't mess with modifications, you are looking for trouble'' etc because they don't want to envolved, they prefer the easy tasks which bring them easy money. The 1.9 hasn't that rectangle plastic duct in front?
  12. To install the 1.6 radiator i had to pay a guy to modify the front duct to make it wider and pay a mechanic to modify the condenser pipes to gain few cm. On the other hand some cm will be lost on the other side since car's body metal sheet covers them. So only few cm (with such a cost) will provide remarkable thermal efficiency to say that the project worth it?
  13. @Thefeliciahacker : Is this what you have? https://kritosparts.gr/Part/PSYGEIO-NEROU-6U0121251C/e2876U0121251C
  14. Yes, it has been mentioned elsewere that removing this plastic duct only makes things worst, the inclinations on the sides makes more incoming air to "hit" the radiator and not lost in turbulances around it.
  15. This is the front-left the front-right and the Inside-right side. I see an empty space down there, the hose is from the end of the radiator estimated about 8cm plus at least 3 from the other side is 11Cm From the 1.3 radiator (485mm) to the 1.6 radiator (590mm) we have 105mm (10,5cm) so it may fit even a little bit tight.
  16. The black metallic plate where the fan is screwed, that cover has 2 bolts on top and 2 below the radiator. So we keep the radiarot fan, the cover and we install a bigger radiator from 1.6 which is few cm wider? I will take a photo tonight of mine from that spot since this old photo is not good.
  17. If i can "steal" 1-2 cm from one side and the 3-4cm from the other (which i can based in photos) then maybe. Must i buy the 1.6 metal cover too or i can keep what i have?
  18. Keep in mind that ''Gay'' in your language was meaning ''the happy guy'' and we have read this word even in poems of 1700 but now means something different. Also you use the word ''Idiot'', do you know that isn't a slander word and it's Greek? The meaning of it is '' the private person" (the man which does not want to bother with State matters) ? Now if you call a guy ''idiot'' in public you may have a legal problem although originally was just a simple term. If some Americans don't like British or some British don't like Americans or some Belgians don't like Germans or some Belgians don't like French or some Irish or some Canadians or some Polish... blah-blah...(I have no time for such things) __________________________________________________________________ OK since we finish this let's proceed to the radiator matter. This is for 1.6 without a/c https://www.skoda-parts.com/spare-part/007601405-radiator-china-2761.html Another one https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/172603331395?fits=Car+Make%3ASkoda|Model%3AFelicia&hash=item282ff5d343:g:RKgAAOSwuxFY3iey CORE SIZE: 590x322 plus this example https://www.car-parts.ie/car-parts/skoda/felicia-i-estate-6u5/1-6-glx-55-kw/radiator-parts/5259 I don't know if and how a 1.6 radiator can fit in a 1.3 engine bay since things are very tight.
  19. Here are 2 photos from my radiator, the back (the smaller) has only 3-4cm space till reach the bolt. I don't see how a bigger radiator can fit in there. 😟
  20. For us that term means ''girlfriend in a not serious relationsip'', it's not a slander and every young person here use it (in speach or writing) plus you can find it in song lyrics. Sometimes parents use it when talking in their children ''be careful don't waist your time and stick to your examinations, don't spend your money with them, you have been in vacation with them?'' and many times grandfathers-grandmothers reffer to that word. For married Men means ''the woman which have an affair'', it's a very common word here and even young women use it for themselves. I am 56, family man which served in the Army so this age i have no time for ''shiny gadgets'', i don't make jokes easily and i don't provoke others as many times young ''i know everything via internet'' people do. I will post photos tomorrow, i have gap of 3-4 cm till the plastic end of inner radiator reach a bolt with a hose from the outer radiator and i don't know if a bigger radiator can fit in there.
  21. I took today some photos from my radiator and when i post them i will ask some things about the 1.6 radiator but keep in mind i have a/c so things are a bit "tight" in there.
  22. Do i look like a teenager which installs things just for show to the broads? You came second, the Americans fo that, check for Rat Rod car or Hot Rod car. Why don't you make a strictly notice to them?
  23. I don't think that there could be a ''miracle solution'', a little bit from this-a little bit from that and we can make some gain. I wonder if the thread fits to our existing caps.
