Hi I am trying to figure how to set up a test equipment to test an ISV on the bench. What makes it buzz. When it is buzzing, is it open ? When on the car, when can I hear the click when it closes or opens ?
-
Hi Any clues/guide how to remove the centre console to get to this unit.
-
Hi What experience does the 'we' have in car-electrics. Which part of the fusebox was roasting. You can touch the relays and let us know the number on the hottest relay.
-
Hi What aspect of the car are you looking for ?
-
Hi Anyone know where I can get a technical drawing of the cutoff valve.
-
Hi whats the outside temperature where you are ?
-
Hi Right. Anyone know what the electrical connection does. I have establishhed that it is NOT a switch. Also, what is the small vacuum pipe for. How can I test it before I put it back in the car.
-
Hi You are a star. Well done and thanks for the lovely pictures and the how-to.
-
Hi Clean and tighten the spade connector to the starter solenoid. Oh, and get this thread moved to the engine section.
-
Hi Put up a picture of the fusebox showing the relays.

Hi Whats wrong with her?
-
Hi These are the wires at the 4-pin connector at the top of the fuel tank in the boot.

bump.....

Hi I take it you are trying to find if the pump has given up the ghost. Pick up the carpet in the boot on the drivers side, and put up a picture of the end towards the seat. It should show a round plate with three screws.
-
Hi What are you trying to eliminate by finding this wire ?
-
Hi Glad for you. I would chage the injectors and the FPR regardless, dont want petrol in the engine oil.

Hi 1991 1.8 16v KR How does the valve work, it has a 2pin connector AND it also has a tiny vacum pipe connection.
-
Hi The cog does not need to come off to do a cambelt change, surely. Glad it is sorted.
-
Hi Are both cars KR engine? If you are getting a spark from the coil to the dizzy and NOT to the plugs, then either the carbon brush is missing from inside the dizzy OR the tip of the rotor arm is not touching the 4 metal contacts inside the dizzy OR all the leads are corroded inside.
-
Hi Please put up a picture, a bird's eye view of under the bonnet.
-
Hi What do you call the vacuum advance ? And where have you plugged it ?
-
Hi Thanks all. Are you sure the vacuum switch (diaphragm pressure switch) is to control the cut-off valve. I thought it was to enrich the fuel mixture when cranking the engine at -35C.
-
Hi Tried the search in vain. On a 1991 1.8 16v KR, where is the control unit located,that controls idle and overrun cutoff.
-
Hi Is it a k-jetronic ignition engine ? I would dry/clean out the battery earth and the starter/solenoid connections and the inside of the dizzy as they are on the passenger side.

Hi Is the tank low on fuel once a week ?
