lockdown

Ya tagged andy and josh and it popped up on the side of my fb home

Just see this pic pop up on facebook :lol: I normally just weld a bolt to the top of them and use a breaker bar on the end of the bolt

Are black carpets common? I've can't remember seeing a corrado with one. Ebay is just throwing up boot carpet

Just a thought that popped into my head. My grey carpet in the rado is looking a bit minging and some of the various marks and stains don't want to shift with the spray and scrub stuff I picked up in halfords. So I was thinking, could the colour be changed e.g. dying it black? Has anyone done anything like this? I know of people just spray painting the head liner and parcel shelf etc but I don't think that would be very durable on the floor. Or did vw do a black corrado carpet worth sourcing and swapping it for that? Thanks

Yer both have stopped working. Mines 1992, still the same fuses?

Couldn't find any info with a search. The electric adjustment on my recaros has stopped working? Was working fine before the engine work. Where should I be checking first? Which fuses are for the seats? Thanks

Its all finished now mate, but thanks for the offer

Wasn't an engine swap mate. Just the head

Im going to have a play with the dizzy in the morning to see if I can get it running a bit better. My mates dropped off a timing gun, so i'll have to learn how to use that tomorrow. All else fails i'll ring a pro :lol:

Don't think I could drive it how it is. Probs have to get someone to come out and have a look i think

I have no clue how to do the timing. Think I need to find someone with a lot more knowledge than me. My be time to ring the professionals haha Thanks though guys you've been a massive help

Well I managed to put it back together to the best of my knowledge (and alot of help from here). IT RAN! But like a bag of crap :lol: Could this just be the timing?

Im also having trouble getting the cam belt tight. I have it round all the pulley's like it should with the tensioner in but it doesn't seem to want to go back how it was. Any tips for doing this?

So the thing coming out by the airbox is the fan switch? Where should it be going to?

ok i'll leave that off then and see if I can find with its goes later. Thanks for the help guys

Thanks arnau I found where they go now. Any ideas where the screw in thing with the brown wire coming from it by the airbox goes?

Bit confused with these aswell. The 3 metal pipes coming from the airbox. Im sure at lest one of these goes on the end of the inlet manifold with the bolt with the hole though it. Is the one I have bolted on right and where do the other two go to? I have have another bolt with a hole in and its a larger size. I did take pictures before it came apart but I seemed to have missed these bit out :(

Thanks mate The blue and white wire in the 2nd pic?

This bracket/earth type thingy has a strap coming from the coil Any help with where all these things go would be much appreciated Thanks

I'm in the middle of putting my engine back together in the car. There are a few plugs that i can't remember for the life of me where they went. This comes out on the left hand side of the car (as or standing in front) by the airbox. This plug hangs down in the middle just behind the radiator. This plug/bracket comes off of one of the HT leads The wire from this plug goes back to the bulkhead near the coil

thank you

Am I right in thinking that when piston 1 as at the very top of its stroke, this is top dead centre?

How do i find the mark on the flywheel? Is there a bung or anything to pop out?

I did a search but i typed in locating tdc :lol: . There arn't any marks on my aux belt pulley :(

Sorry for the assault of threads today. If managed to set the head up at tdc off the car but the bottom end isn't. Where are the timing marks on a kr for the bottom end? Got the socket on the end of the crank pulley but no ideas where to move it to. Please help Thanks again :D
