Mk3 Cavalier Owners Club | Vauxhall Cavalier Dot Com

So what they are saying is that you need to have 2 insurance policies, one for your new car and one for the car you are selling so you don't have the hassle of sorning it, you then have a policy you need to cancel and incur a surcharge or you have to sell your old car for less than you wanted for it...

My Diplomat used to do this with the heated seats and heated rear window turned on but that was down to the current load.

As suggested above, i would use a volt meter and check continuity in the earth leads and the leads connection to the engine, chassis etc (ring terminal to its fixing bolt)

Hey Squig, i'm back! lol Well the transmission manufacturer is Aisin Aw (no surprise a Jap company) and the AF13/20 (under other numbers like 50/42LE for example) were also used by other manufacturers (Volvo & Saab are 2 that come to mind) with the differences being the bell housing so maybe cut...

Hey all, how you lot doing??

No i haven't got another Cav but as i haven't been here for a while i thought i would poke my head through the door.

I see a few changes in Mods too and not as many

So what have i missed??

Get rid of the Vec, I can't i'm not allowed. Its being good too atm especially with petrol, much better than any of the Cav's i've owned. I've been having weird wants Cav wise. I've been thinking of finding a Cavalier Concept as i know they are rare. Nice cheap Tax too :lol: vectra fail cavalier win...

Its sad isn't it. Theres a bloke round the corner from me with a Viva on his drive which has been there for the past 8 years yet he won't sell up. Its not as bad as that S1 yet but its getting that way. That S1 is worth quite a bit now anyway if its the one without the extras (elecy windows etc) as ...

Yeah i'm cool people. I wish my other half would let me buy another Cav. Could have got a GSi 4x4 last week but no, i can't have it. Mind you its been standing for 3 years on grass so i bet its rotten underneath and i don't have 300 notes atm

Leon, i don't know who Dave is either

Hey all how you all doing?? have you missed me??

i see the forum has a new look

scrapyard grabber the last thing my old Cav had

My Veccy has many 2.5 parts on it and also GSi doors

Go buy some more

I thought so, the messages on the Pm's are at the bottom of a very very long list of names

Its a bit far from me

As it seems some of my mod rights have been removed I would like to thank everyone on here for everything and also i hope all the best for the future of the club

You'll see me in other places so not all will be lost

Squig has a V6 so thats better than an XE imo

Could use the auto leveling suspension pump from an omega
Electric rear blind on the parcel shelf

Awww lol

I've a pair of hamsters here

i've got one of these

A Gsi box will fit a calibra but not a beam type cavalier

My mum had one of the 2lt 8v 4x4 Cavaliers, its a shame its dead now. Transfer box went pop at 56k (which was when it was sold to the scrap man, thanks Mum)

Thats an Isuzu lump so its safe to tune. If it was the Vauxhall TD (which i dont think came in Cavaliers iirc) then the rocker cover and physical looks of the engine are simular to a Petrol 8v. Its also the same engine as Rich C's on Vxon which has turned up fueling and boost and it also runs nitros...

I've heard that XE injectors fit the old 8v if thats any use :lol: Ye, there is a bit of a difference in the bosch range, Squig. I've fitted a set of Bosch Super Plus plugs last xmas in my Cav, i'm pretty sure the engine feels a bit smoother. Not sure about any others though. I think squig is saying...

I couldn't grumble with buypartsby.co.uk. I got the fuel tank for my old Dippy from there.

The only problem i had with it was that when it was full the float unit would get stuck until you went over a big enough pothole which would free it but that was probably because i fitted it myself

lol im the ackward one, id keep the blitz but ditch 'Opel'

My old man had this problem with his 97' 2t dtl Vectra. The cure was to blank the return that goes to the pump and Tee the leak off pipe from the injectors to the return feed that returns to the fuel tank.

Thats nothing compared to Stanwell, Middlesex. Usual things to get broken are door mirrors, windscreens from pissed cyclists or nice long scratches down the side of the car when you accidently park outside someones house that they claim they didnt know it was your car when they have seen you enterin...

It dont work in my household
