ive got three different metering head air boxes and two different filters it depends on the size of the filter box!!

i was gona say i hoped that wasnt the shed that you were building today coz if it was you were quick lol pics look cool it was good to get the dubs together lol ive just fibnished the clutch on the mk 4 wat a job lol still i can clean my car tomorrow :luvlove:

I use snap on :ignore: lol but i use mine every day so halfords just dont cut it lol! the annoying thing with halfords spanners is they always miss 15 and 18 mm really bugs me!! :cuckoo: :D

I think you mean air is more dense at cold temps (more dense = more power potential), VW's are designed to run pretty hot as that makes the engine run more efficiently, fuel definitely doesn't atomise better when and engine is cold, why do you think carb engines have a choke? yeh sorry the air is more dense sorry ! :bonk:

The fuel atomises alot better in cold/damp consitions !

new brakes always look satifying when on a car! looks really good buddy well spotted tho would have been a right pain up north ! :(

please mate that would be great a couple on months wages will cover it !!!! cheers

HERE HERE well apart from the bits that go wrong of course ha ha

i really want one but funds are soooo tight!!! :( :( :(

please someone must of had a prob like this haha :grin:

hi chaps/chapesses ive got a problem that i really cant get to the bottem of ill start from the top! about a month ago i was having idle problems and could not find the fault it was like a small vaccume leak and the only way of keeping the revs donw was to clamp the front vaccume hose so i did ! time went on and it got worse cant really remember what was going on tbh lol but then it started to breaking down on me and the only way of starting it from warm was to unplug the right hand sensor on the metering head but it wouldnt start from cold then so ive been basically nursing her! i now if i start her from cold i have to plug that sensor in let it idle for 6 mins then the revs drop because it wont rev and unplug the sensor then i can drive off if i plug it in when its hot it will idle but will not rev its like a hunting situation when i toutch the throttle brum brum brum brum so i cannot run it with it plugged in but i cannot start it in the morning with it unplugged!! :censored: ive expelled everything ive changed the metering head, 5th injector, checked the knock sensor, replaced the distributer, and its really :censored: me off!! its a late 2.0 16v sorry for the really long explanation but its the only way of explaining it !! any bit of light would be sooo great !!! thanks liam

no idea lol looooked sweet mate thanks for doing that it made my morning seeing that :D :D

its no good for mine i need to open my bonnet every 6 hours :lol: :lol: looks cool tho i was hoping to see it this morn but it wasnt there :(

SWEEEEET! looks ace buddy done a good job got that throttle body sorted out?? (btw i havnt got any txts so cant txt lol :lol: ) does it fit on your bros astra? :D :D

and i second that lol :lol:

it goes on the top as it slides into the heater box!!!!

the foam part goes around the matrix and the other bit is to insulate it in the heater box!!! you will see the old ones when you take the old one out you will see where they go sorry but i cant help you on the plastic pipe but i never got one when i did mine i recon you should file it under B (BIN) hope it helps! :wave:

good lad stick it in the bin!! :clap:
