Rover 200 & 400 Owners Club

Thanks mate, I'll give rimmer bros a bell tomorrow.

By the way, has your 214 got a purge valve?

No luck on the pipes from the red arrows which joined together on a t-connector and then onto somewhere else though... any ideas where?

Thanks for any pointers

Its a '92 214 GSi with air-con by the way.

My 214 looks identical to yours, so I would imagine it has a purge valve. My dad had problems obtaining parts from Rover main dealers even in 1997 for it, many parts even then had been rendered obsolete for the SPi. models (perhaps Rimmers have found new stock for them)

Cheers

I always used Rimmers when I had an old rangie so I know they're good, fingers crossed!

The purge valve is the left arrow on the pic above. I'm guessing now that it should connect as so...



Sorry to keep asking you R8 Man- its just that I think we must have run out models which were made for a very short while; 99.9% of the catalyst cars must be MPi. Might explain the slapdash vacuum pipes!

So far I've been used far larger washer jet tubes which I've raided from a 3-series (my mate is chopping a few up every week for his ever so slighty dodgy engine conversion! ), I wonder if they need to be narrower to create the correct pressure or something? But anyway, fingers crossed on Rimmer Bros!

Cheers R8 Man & Co.!!!

Haha back on the case!

Rimmer Bros only stock for the multi-point cars.

Anyone have thoughts on my (slightly iffy) diagram?

Cheers
