Hi Thanks for the reply and you are right the induction growl is great with the cone filters but i was after one to go in my airbox Cheers Andy

Hi is this a panel filter to go in the airbox or a cone type thing? Thanks Andy

Hi I had the same problem with a valver in my old scirocco i took the dizzy apart and took the seal to a seal shop in stafford they couldnt supply a single one the right size but told me to just fit two instead that together were the same size worked a treat! The seal wasnt availiable seperately from vw although i think they could give me dimensions of it but it was nearly 20yrs ago all they could do was sell me a new dizzy for a failed 20p seal! The dizzy has to be completely disassembled to get to the shaft seal i remember it was abit tricky but i found a guide online somewhere Hope this helps Andy

Hi Andy,
I am certainly not a mechanic! So I'll need assistance to remove the engine and box! This shouldn't be a problem as I have a few mates who are in the trade... But I will have to give them some financial reward for devoting their family time to me! they'll be able to do the compression test too...
I'll also research the delivery part...
Let you know early next week hopefully, cheers

Hi ashley
Im up in cannock staffs so a fair old jaunt away from you and i just dont have time to come down and remove an engine and box wifey just wont go for that
Soooo how much would you want to remove the engine and box and pallet carrier it upto me
I can have it delivered to work (im a mechanic anyway) so an engine in the corner untill i can get it to my house or maybe my mates unit who is also a mechanic, or my house but that would mean a weekend residential delivery which i belive costs more!
Dont suppose you could do a quick compression test for me to confirm the condition?
Thanks
Andy

Hi Andy,
Yep it's still there. Radiator and fans gone now so I've given up on getting it running!
If you want to come and remove it you can take it for £150.
Cheers,
Ashley

Hi Why did you change the airfilter was it wet? If it was do a compression test
-
Oh and new vac hose isnt going to do any harm they dont usually need clips as long as its a nice tight fit it will be ok I used some silicone vac hose i had lying around from previous jobs

Hi They probably will be as if has run but if its a non runner standard checks are spark and fuel so if is sparking the next check is fuel,you have fuel at the rail so are the injectors working? You should have a constant live and a switched earth at the plug i have a set of noid lights for this but you can use a test light or multimeter to check them and make sure the ecu is switching them As it was running just before it stopped its unlikely they arnt switching so as youve got a fpr on order just pop that in and try it Mine was abit stuck in the rail be carefull not to damage the rail too much when you persuade the old one out Andy

Oh just check you have a spark first if you have then thats pretty much all it can be! Fuel to rail Injectors switching? Andy
