for sale 1993 Corrado VR6 Custom green QUICK SALE NEEDED
GreenRado replied to GreenRado's topic in Cars for Sale [Corrado]
Nah I replaced the slave during the Summer, and the master recently. I think its probably the old tube pipe feeding the master from the reservoir, but I haven't had the time to check it out. -
I'm amazed this is still for sale! I would jump on it if I had the cash and didn't already have a C on the drive.

Got the one off my '93, will post a pic tomorrow

The plastic trim above the rad on the slam panel, just realised mine is missing.

VR6 ABV crank position sensor question - now fuel pressure issue
GreenRado replied to fendervg's topic in Engine Bay
Sorry it's taken me so long to get back, the weather's been crap here for the past few days. Anyway looks like my results confirm what Vince had told you. I'm getting 3.6 bar at idle, 4.1 with FPR hose off and plugged. Residual pressure stays above 3 bar after engine is turned back off. -
VR6 ABV crank position sensor question - now fuel pressure issue
GreenRado replied to fendervg's topic in Engine Bay
Have you checked the continuity of the wiring behind the fuse box, like my issue turned out to be from? Really does sound like injectors are last on the list, but from re-reading your thread it sounds a lot like my issue, especially given the seemingly random nature of the stalling and no-starts. I'll check my pressure either tonight or tomorrow morning and let you know the values I have :) -
93 VR6 intermittently cutting out and intermittently not starting

Nail on the head right there! Live and learn though I suppose! And thanks :) -
Not while running, as its very quiet compared to an engine. Are you concerned that you can't hear it or that it's too loud?

You were right on the money! Decided I'd pull the fuse box out a bit to check the state of the wiring and instantly noticed a black wire fall down with a bit of solder on its end. Found a severed yellow wire on the end of a yellow connector more or less in line with the pump relay. Hey presto, holding them together and the relay clicks and she starts first time. Revs healthy, idles fine and then of course pulling the wire away and she stalls out after 10 or so seconds, with the exact hesitance she was exhibiting before. Time to get the soldering iron out and make sure that connection never comes loose again. No other loose/severed wires in sight. FYI that wiring was nothing to do with me. Oh how I wish I'd checked that sooner! :bonk: -

Relay 67 turning on and off as it should, tested a 167 in there as well, same story. Checked fuel hoses on the tank and they are correct. Took a separate hose off the feed line from the tank to test and not a drop came out. I have a battery I can test the pump directly with, so I'll try that next. -

Connector is getting just under 10V with ignition on and I've thoroughly cleaned both sides of the terminal with no change. Dead pump then surely? -

I thought the pump shared relay 109 with the ECU? -

Pressure is non-existent and now so is fuel. (Definitely just been getting worse and worse until now something has just died). Replaced relay 109 with a brand new one and still nothing. Popped off the feed hose to the fuel filter and a decent amount of fuel was in the hose. Continued to try starting with that hose off and not a drop came out. Would it be correct to assume the pump has had it? Anyone know if there's any tests you can do on it from the electrical terminals or even once removed?
