Renault 5 GT Turbo / Renault 5 GT Turbo Raider PROBLEMS

« on: 13:02, Fri 18 March 2011 »

hi all ive joined for a friend as he has no access to the internet

he currently has a renault 5 GTT raider which he bought for a £1000

quite clean reli apart from the boot and bonnet

now cut to the chase hes having alota problems with it atm one minute it works next it does,nt

hes got a spark and fuel so my guess it either electrics or fuel mixture is way to rich,he bought new plugs drove 2.6 miles and they were jet black

after cleaning the plugs put them back in and still does not want to start it would fire every now and again but as soon as you use the tottle to rev it to help tick over it just cuts out

if anyone could suggest anything it would be great!

me and him are both from devon and based in a small town called bideford so if anyones kicking around the area with some spare time on there hands im sure my mate would apreciate some help
