KarlosG60

Sorry, I mean +0.2 or +0.3mm wider on the gap.

Hi, I struggling with my G60, not running well. I will change the spark plugs. I have BERU from 2010 and they look too bad after a lot of issues and years. I got the ETKA ref. number: 101000006AF But which are, today, the spark plugs that should replace old ones? Can't find BOSCH (or at least at decent prices), and DENSO or NGK models dosn't fit the gaps as Bentley says (0.6 - 0.7mm). Is this so important that 2-3mm wide, can do to spark getting worse? https://www.denso-am.eu/catalog/part/IW20TT What about cheaper models? I'm in progress to keep running the engine, so I don't want to waste new expensive spark plugs. Thanks.

Update: I keep working on 😤

Update (yes, i'm slow. I do it when I can. Don't have own garage/good place to work on it) Next step. Mount them and we will see what happens.

Hello I have the O-rings sets. But I don't understanding what is talking about here. What I should replace? Which part is yellow here? I only see ORANGE. Am I daltonic?

I just bought a pack of 4 seals set por 8EUR from BOSCH. Comparing references it seems the same. But didn't come with the micro-filter like this set does: https://www.ebay.es/itm/332423959672 What size this filters has? In AE there's a lot of them

Hi, Today I cleaned injectors one by one using syringue as a fuel ramp, and a lot of PTFE to keep the pressure inside. I saw how the spray on every injector became from 3-4 streams to a visible an audible spray. So, for me are cleaned and ok, but didn't check for leakings. Maybe in the future. First I want to know if the car will run well. My doubt now it's about the seals replacements. My injectors reference are: 0280150905 and this is the reference ETKA says: 030 198 031 VWClassic has stock, but I don't know where the gray seal and one of black seals are fitted: My injector: Two of black seals, one orange at the end. But the other two? I don't have here the injector, buy maybe the gray it's near the orange?

Nice advice. Thank you, I will check it.

I just asking because the car is not running now, so maybe I can install the mirror myself. But I will do that are you saying, @Wullie, and bring it to my workshop to do that. They already know me. Thank you guys.

What type of drink do you think should be

Hi, I just bought the mounting for interior mirror (after years searching it for a reasonable price!). So, what I need to do to mounting? What type of glue I need? Thanks

No. All four are dirty, but if i'm not wrong, piston head are black, so I can't assure you 100%. BUt looking at how spark plugs came out every time, it's very possible they are. I have pending to buy a mobile endoscope accesory to look inside the cylinder.

Before I open the thread there (no time now), this is what it need to be replaced on every injector? https://www.volkswagen-classic-parts.com/catalog/en_global/search?q=030 198 031 This item x4 times? 40 euros on that? There is another option? I saw Topran one, but this brand is not reliable I think... And we talking about fuel is an important system of the car. Cannot mount poor materials.

Thank you @Popeye775 I will open a thread on Vortex, to talk about bad fuel mixing. I know this a so talked topic about, but not always they are good. Thanks for the advice for AFR gauge, I will definetely take a look.

They are OEM, Beru. But +10 years old. They don't have too much mileage (I'm sure < 3000kms), but they are old and a lot of cold start-ups + fuel supply issues + ignition issues. The mixture I'm sure is not good, because before I found wiring issues, I manipulated CoPot and so... I will set to 500ohms. Yes, I have Bentley. But before replace spark plugs I think I'll check/listen with stethoscop/clean the injectors. Also I will check if exists spark on every spark plug.
