do you know anyway to diagnose it and whats the black plug for

hello there, can anyone tell me if there is a diagnostic plug on a 1.8 16v kr, i had a problem with fluctuating idle and a sparky said the 2 plugs should be under the trim around the handbrake, we found a black 2 pinned one but he said there should be a white one next to it, i stripped out most of the trims but cant find anything .thanks.

hi boost monkey ,it did smell of fuel , im abit new to this can you tell me how to get on your project thread thanks

i bought a second hand fuel distributor/air flow meter ,the guy said it was of a working car which he stripped because of bad bodywork, but same problem maybe worse :bad-words: it now sticks on 3000 revs for ages before fluctuating. ive now decided to ride my bike, it drives me mad, been sat at the traffic lights reving it's :censored: off and everyone thinking im wanting a race. anyone got any ideas ,please please help

i have cleaned out isv and checked out the pipe work ,all seemed ok. lifted the top of the air filter ,the air flow sensor plate was moving up and down ,i held it in place the engine seemed to idle ok , looked in haynes manual (golf/jetta 1984-1992) "airflow sensor plate and control plunger testing" it says if the sensor plate has resistance when you raise it the control plunger is sticking in the fuel distributer, if resistance is felt when moving it down the air flow meter is defective, mine was resisting when raising so i stripped the fuel distributer and cleaned the plunger in petrol , got it nice and free ,turned car over same problem , raised the sensor plate ,it was sticking again, so am now looking for a fuel metering distributor.

thanks will try all of them out and let you know what happened, priced up the single bladed sensors part no 027 919 501 its changed to 049 919 501 and they're £24 each :gag:

hello there ,my corrado has started reving when idle hot or cold, when i start it ,it revs up to 3000 rpm ,then fluctuates from 1250 rpm to 2000rpm. i have a feeling its a coolant temp sensor, but there seems to be 3 of them (black with single blade connecter part number 027 919 501) and a thermo switch (brown) all situated around the coolant elbow under the dizzy, has anyone come across this problem before .thanks
