  1. yeah but the smell in my G60 seems to go once engine is warm. only time i notice it is first 10 mins of running car in morning. Any diagrams of ALL 3 fuel hose within the engine (overview?)
  2. I have a small hole just behind my CAT would this effect the running of the engine other then the car being a bit louder?
  3. cheers everyone. Like ive said in my first post im new to the forums, but im impressed so far. Loads of help and advice. NICE ONE :rambo:

    G60

    Hey guys. I have a smell of fuel when driving not long after first starting the car in a morning. It seems to come from the air vents but arent sure. If there isnt a leak in the fuel system, any ideas what it could be???? Could it be a sign that its not running on all cylinders and its the unburnt fuel i can smell. Saying that, i dont notice it all the time and when the car has being running for a while, the smell doesnt seem to be there. I seem to be forever going to the pettie station. Any ideas i would be grateful. Thanks :roll:
  5. yeah had super charger refurbed about 2k miles ago. everything else is working fine too.
  6. H100VW- when you say things should be in good condition first be fore installing chip and pulley you mean everything else works ok?
  7. kewl man. cant say ive seen you around. wish i had my corrado then. Big UP to ya!
  8. i have posted my problems on the engine bay section but thanks for saying anyway. i have received plenty of responses. The corrado forums are friendly and helpful. DUB POWER!! :2gunfire:
  9. Im originally from pendas fields, just before barwick, Next to crossgates. Lived there for 21 years. Im now up at colton with my girl friend, which is down the road from oulton. As for the night life, well i didnt mind leeds centre but now im bored of it. Saying that im into hard house and psychedelic trance so i went to those sort of clubs. Calmed down now and would much rather go to the pub and have a pint and a laugh. But yeah leeds is second best only to london, for everything never mind the night life. Did you have your rado when you were in leeds. I see a white, dark red and green ones regularly. I know what people go on about when they say rado drivers acknowledge eachother. :robot:
  10. by the way steve mac didnt notice you were a leeds lad too, where about you from in leeds? What made you move down to birmingham?
  11. lag technology, i take it you mean that the chip stops any lagging? you'd recommend the SNS then? what about a digifant 1 chip? Can you fit a 68mm pulley with no chip? which would you recommend a 68mm pulley or a 65mm? excuse the ignorance but what are torx bits?
  12. by the way are the jabba sport chips any good, heard a few people on here say they arent up to scratch?
  13. ah right ill give it a look. cheers is it simple to fit the SNS chip?
  14. can anyone send me a picture of a corrado G60 engine over view and pointing out where the ECU is located? Thanks :?:
  15. Supercharged- ive checked the fuses. no luck. The interior light also stopped working along with the sunvisor mirror light too, checked the fuses for that too but they havent blown. As you can tell my rado needs a tad work on it. Dubcahrged- yeah im looking to get a pulley and a chip!!! unfortunately im not near to Gwerks or pitstop. Im up in Leeds.
  16. does anyone know what reason the boost check using the MFA control wouldnt work. My time and trip reset themselves everytime ignition is switch off, would this be an explanation?
  17. CHEERS MATE!!! where any of you guys at lutterworth this year? First time ive been. Got into Veedubs cos my girlfriends parents are into them, but ive ALWAYS loved to own a corrado. And now i do!!!! :D RESPECT TO THE DUBS!!!! by the way whats different about the later front end on the rado?
  18. ah right kewl, Cheers for the info gavin, most helpful Gaz
  19. Anymore mods that would improve performance but stray too far from standard would be handy. 0X
  20. cheers for that mate. Where can i get the SNS chips from? How easy is it to fit a pulley and a chip, i also presume that ill need another belt to go with the pulley? thanks for the website ad. :mrgreen:
  21. I dunno when i first got it it flew like the wind. Saying that i had a 2.0 8v corrado prior to that, unitl i wrote it off, that was slow as Sh*t Seen a 68mm pulley on ebay for around 20-30 quid. not bad really. how about a chip? how much will that cost? what is the exact name of the chip im looking for? Cheers for the help and thanks for the welcome. Gaz :Fade-color
  22. Hey guys!!! im new to the forum so a BIG HELLO to you all! I do have a problem though. I own a Corrado G60 and it was running fine when i first got it pulled like a train. However after experiencing poor performance especially off the mark, i decided to get the supercharger overhauled, no great inprovement. Then i got it put on a rolling road and with no luck it, as running fine. However i feel the car is still sluggish and like i say not fast off the mark at all. There is a weird noise when i change gear especially at high revs (sounds like a rusty gate squeeking but only last about a second) driving along in traffic the car can start to jerk and sometimes gets quite bad. Is this a sign of the clutch being worn (reverse gear can be hard to select with out grinding the gear and first CAN be hard to select too). If not any ideas what it could be? By the way is it worth getting an upgraded ECU chip? Thanks
