Regarding MPI clutch fitting is there a particular orientation I need to use when refitting the pressure plate and drive plate?
Thanks

Hi, can you enlighten me on this please? I didn't mark the assembly when I took it out of the car. I have a feeling this might be my issue.
I appreciate the flywheel can only go on one way. Not sure how to align the clutch and inner boss correctly. Car is missing and wont rev over 3000 rpm.
Thanks a lot. Mark

inner boss you prbably havent takent off, if you have and its wrong the minimum it would be out is 60 degrees, so wouldnt run,
if you have used a non injection clutch cover as a replacement this can put the timing out about 20 degrees and caus the symptom you describe, or the reluctor ring on the back of the fly wheel can move causing issues.

double check plug order, andf timing at no1,
plugs 1&4 should fire together, and 2&4 together

Yes sensors will be my next stop. It bugs me that I haven't got the know how to test the components at an individual level and instead have to do this by a process of elimination and buy components

You cannot assemble the clutch any other way than the right way, that is unless you try very hard to make the parts fit the wrong way. Everything is dowelled, Keyed and orientated to prevent wrong installation.
The centre boss will only fit to the clutch outer one way, the holes only line up in one position. The clutch outer only fits to the flywheel one way as it is dowelled in two places only. The centre boss will only fit into the crank one way as the key slot is offset.
That however doesnt stop some people still installing the flywheel and key washer incorrectly such that the key is not even in the slot on the end of the crank!!!!...... that is not the fault of the parts lol
