General Comments

How much fun is this car....
I have had my Fiat Punto GT3 for about a year now and have only just got it running again, as for the last 6 months it has been off the road as one of my exhaust manifold bolts sheared off in the head, therfore resulting in a 600 pound fee and me putting about 60hrs into it putting it together.
One problem after another, manifold was cracked, camshaft shims and buckets also broke but finally got it together.
New shims kent cam buckets etc, got head skimmed,
And finally got to drive it.
Now though I seem to have a few problems.
The first being the injector light wont go out and secondly my turbo doesnt boost properly, and dump valve no way near as loud as it used to be.
CAN SOMEONE HELP PLEASE!!!!
Fantastic car, the more you spend the more you love it.

    injector light won't go out probably the sensors needs changing, or clean/change injectors.

    Drop me an email on derek.hazard@ntlworld.com (for attention of Jack) if you still haven't got your car sorted. I've had this problem before and it could be a number of things, might be able to help.
