my 20vt corrado ... the saga continues
easypops replied to barryarginnraddo's topic in Members Gallery
very nice......very g60greeny :D -
Hello and welcome, all the issues you are having are quite common and have been discussed loads of times already......the search is what you need to use......click on advanced search .......then type key words......ie 2.0 16v hunting idle etc try these for a start http://www.the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/viewto ... 0+16v+idle http://www.the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/viewto ... ning+temps oh and get some pics up :D
-
Does this mean yours is now sold then Andy?.....and i guess you must be thinking of buying this storm? :D
-
No worries mate, the wires were broken inside the plastic sheathing and ,in truth just found it by luck.....I never even thought of checking for continuity as all bad idle problems i had read about on here were to do with the isv, fuel filter, fuel pump, 5th injector, maf, coil ,dizzy........and i had replaced all of these (unplugged the 5th injector). where would i have checked for continuity?.......only asking as it would be good to know.....and having followed mostly all of your posts, you seem to know the corrado inside out.....having turned one inside out :clap: :D
-
found this on autodata, hope its of help, best let someone in the know confirm also :D
-
That sounds good....so one end goes at the faulty plug and the other goes where? in the ecu somewhere i guess? Well I for one wont be doing any tampering in the ecu. and i dont think you'll find that many people on this forum who would be prepared to start messing about in there.....but i may be wrong. Quite sure there will be no school physics pupils doing it anyway.... I do have a multi-meter by the way :D
-
Would you be willing to put a few words down on paper so we can update the appropriate section of this draft Knowledgebase Article? yes , no worries mate.......do you mean actual paper? or put it on a word document? let me know what you want exactly and i'll be happy to help.
-
here you go mate, try this......and welcome to the forum :D http://www.the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/viewto ... 18&t=28708

Mate, I'm a picture framer.....before i had a corrado , when the car went wrong it went to a garage.....happy to get my hands dirty now......the problem that took a year to find was missed by 3 garages including a supposed vw specialist, so i was quite pleased that i was able to find the problem.....which was intermittent so didn't always annoy
-
My bad idle was caused by 2 broken wires(burst inside the plastic covers) on the plug that attaches onto the throttle potentiometer.....only took about a year to find :D ....that was after a new MAF, distributor, leads, throttle potentiometer, fuel pump, and a replacement throttle body and many times cleaning the ISV . This is a pic of the plug.....usually attached to the throttle body
-
I'd say yes......white wheels look 8) on the right car.......and the corrado IS the right car :D
-
Good stuff mate, I'll have a set anyway :D
-
i think so :D ......was it cold and windy at Knockhill by the way?
-
Ah i see, can i not just buy self tapping screws/bolts for that bit then?
-
I'll have one at £12.50 no worries.....could you explain about the "tap" situation for me as i'm not sure what it is :oops: and if need be i'll have that also :D Thanks for the effort :clap:
-
I don't think you will find anyone willing to help you if all you can do is give out abuse. Time to grow up :snipersmile:
-
i guess that didn't come up in the search then :D :lol:
-

-
I think you'll need to be a wee bit more precise about where it is coming from......welcome to the forum anyway :wave:
-
I can only help with this list of fuse positions......but i'm sure someone with real knowledge will sort it out
-
