You missed me also , #621 is still with me in guildford , I have owned her since mid 2018. Cheers puddy

Bought my 3rd vrs a few months ago , always wanted an se but did not need it on the road straight away. Its a 2 owner bog stock car so decided to do the usual mods to compliment it. But before that i did a little remedial work , polished the faded headlights , replaced a smashed front fog , replaced a bald gear knob lol, replaced the tailgate cos mine had a crease in it and replaced one faulty glow plug. Luckily i had picked up a cheap set of 17" dotz alloys which i have had refurbished and fitted 215 40 17 s along with some vrs centre caps. Fitted heko wind deflectors which go very nicely with the factory tints. Fitted later style skoda nose and tailgate badges. Also fitted a seat leon front spoiler for looks rather than performance i suspect lol. Then to get the stance right bought and fitted a set of direnza coilovers along with mondeo drop links and new top mounts. Then for looks i have fitted the later vrs badges front and rear using an old grill shell centre which had to be cut about for the studs to go thru. Lastly had it remapped to 170 bhp + 55nms of tourque last week by a mate of mine . Overall bang for buck i am very pleased !

a couple of pics of 621 as she sits now. Juat got a couple of late vrs badges to fit and a poss remap but well happy. puddy :)

I have been in the motor trade since i left school in 1979 . Only ever worked at main dealers , Renault, bmw , ford , jaguar until a few years ago. I now work for an independent gearbox specialist and wild horses would not drag me back to a main dealer. Little wonder they cannot recruit or retain staff ! Puddy

Sold .

621 picked up today in Colchester Essex. Looks like a very stock 2 owner car. I will be personalising a bit , splitter , alloys and possibly lowering it. It now resides in Guildford Surrey. Cheers puddy

Can't believe nobody wants these. I will update the ad at the weekend with individual pics and tread depths. Mind you the price will probably go up Cheers puddy

If its trying to run then it will be burning most of the fuel off of the electrode. Best thing would be to read what the engine is seeing for throttle position and engine temp etc rather than guessing at it. The things i suggested were fairly easy manual checks.

Still sounds like too much fuel/rich mixture to me . Throttle butterfly wide open will introduce more air , thats how you start a flooded motor. Like i said a couple of days ago taking the hose off is offsetting a rich mixture. I would check fuel return from the fuel pressure regulator , pinched fuel pipes , injector stuck open and hosing to begin with. Cheers puddy

Just remembered why i dont normally get involved with giving advice on forums .......

Where the hell does it say what engine is in it ? Thats why i said PROBABLY fyi . No offence.

Sounds like its running too rich . Likes the extra air with the vacuum pipe open. But probably a cam timing issue with a home mechanic, no offence. Cheers puddy

I probably have one on my fabia 1.9 sdi i am breaking. Cheers puddy

Is there an echo in here lol Puddy

Arb 'D' bushes. Had to replace them on both of my fabia vrs's. Puddy
