right new to the rado scene! gone to view a few corrado's and some haven't been anything special. how much should i expect to pay for a 1.8 16v corrado? the paint is swirly and the rear dash lights dnt work, theres no mot or tax. on the plus it is lowered, nice rims, and a custom exhaust, rear spoiler works fine, back to bad. but sunroof only tilts, doens't slide., door electrics arn't connected and tints are coming away from windows, the bootlid has been smoothed over, and there is signs of crackin in the fibreglass/filler. all i really want to know is, how much should i pay for it? thanks again. Jim

went to look at a corrado today, and the gear stick was a lil floppy? is that normal? is there a short shifter kit that can fix this? also noisy fuel pump when turning the ignition, when it primes it self- are these normal or should it be something to look at? thanks jim -

could it be a engine speed sensor? or were these not fitted as we are going back some, just at work when we get audi's and vw's in and there reluctant to rev, usually the speed sensor, altho they do tend to idle rough or, sound like a chug boat. just an idea! JIM

i'll browse through some stuff at work on tues, as im not at work monday, i'll look through E.l.s.a and see if theres anything in there, if so ill print it off and scan it over to you.

as said above black smoke is excessive over fueling, might want to check injectors and any temperature sensors around the engine, as this can cause the ecu to run sporadic and blind, pissing fuel into the cylinders, *check injectors *check temp sensors, *make sure all plugs are connected properly and that no wires are hanging out. good luck sorting it, it shouldn't be anything serious at all!
