I would have no preference for bio or normal diesel. The idea was to get the efficiency of a small diesel in a small car and see just how good that could be. I bought a 1998 Metro today and got home a sad person. I had stopped for gas and looked under the hood of my new car in better light than I had had when I picked it up. The whole subassembly with the A frames had been welded back together and covered with undercoating. There is a piece of re-rod welded between the A frames to keep them from speading out. Has anyone tried replacing the whole subframe and A frames? I could try welding in a better brace. The one they put in interfeers with the exhaust pipe. I also discovered that there is not catalytic convertera and no second or third O2 sensor. If there is one, will the computer get enough data to control the FA mixture? I need some help and some encouragement. Thanks, Paul
