    So last night i drove to tesco after work and noticed a odd whurring noise and noticed everytime i put my foot on the clutch my lights dimmed, then gets into tesco carpark as soon as i stop the car the dashlights go out battery light comes on. So this morning on the way to work all was fine ? No odd whurring noise pulled into work When i stopped i switched all electrics on windows going up and down and all was fine ? So could it be the altenator or belt or just need the plugs cleaning ?

    Also does anyone know the standard amp power of the st205 altenator ? In work we list a 80a or a 70a ? Think there both the same otherwise ?

  8. how do these work ?

    This is the exact problem we found when designing ours.

    The slimmest you can go with our spacers/supplied nuts is 17mm. This gives enough meat in the spacer to secure it, and enough depth in the hole to fit the nut into.

    Any smaller and the nut will sit proud.

    the ones we sell will allow the wheels to sit flush without the nuts sitting proud, but you will still have the issue with the studs poking out of the face. If your wheels don't have gaps in the casting, your issue will be there. Only way around is to ground off the ends of the studs.

    I dont mind taken the ends of the studs but id prefer not to take some off the nuts lol i‘ll pm you in abit about some replacements ;)

    How much do you want? They would work fine with my alloys.

    will pm you ;)

    Could well be a stupid question but sod it im asking anyway lol

    My 20mm spacers turned up today and i notice the nuts provided dont sit flush or in the spacer ? So if i put them on like this the wheel will be sat on the 5 nuts not on the spacer (and ypu dont need to be a rocket scientist to work out that aint right?)

    Ideas ? Lol

    Been playing with it again today, took the HT lead off spark plug 1 and it was full of oil, only a few mil of the spark plug visible. Looks like its new engine time as I dont really want to get rid of it. Shall be on the look out!
