  3. gman...how do you define "tuned"

    Lambda probe

    fitting a new one is easy....just like undoing a bolt (almost)...cut the wires off and use a socket to undo...i found a cheep oem one on ebay.com
  5. looks good...trouble is everything else looks worse, youd better do it all 8)
  6. kr apparantly :roll:
  7. set the timing to just before pinking....then ajust the idle
  8. ive tried the drilled box on a g60..too noisey for me....does the big hole in the airbox and a tube to the carbon canister hole make the same noise...or better worse???
  9. got a link for this turn2 place?? do they do other vw stuff i.e g60/16v
  10. intresting to hear you get no more vibration...id always thought youd get a little more with all 3 mounts
  11. if you do get it sent from usa,,,,insist they mark it " comercial sample" or "gift" and value it $20 or so...that way no vat/duty
  12. hmmm didnt think of a sticky cable...im still thinking its a result of the idle switch going on /off
  13. know anyone in the states? get it sent to them then im pretty sure it'l be cheeper fot them to mail it here.....theyre prob quoting with ups or something theres some decent guys on the vortex ....anyone help out??
  14. yeah its had new vibra front mount and std others....cheers anyway
  15. my g60 seems a bit jerky at 2000k -1500k at very slight throttle openings....any ideas ? the throttle switch is working ,but im thinking it could still be that....its jumpy when going from slight throttle to no throtle like when creeping along in traffic its a 91 g60 ,68mm pulley,sns chip,red inj blah blah....good plugs/cap/arm/leads etc
  16. yeah mine never take a full 2ltr..i put it down to the box not being bone dry
  17. are you sure cr1623 is the right number?? ive just found packs of 1616 's but no 1623??
  18. have you seen the g60 /16v golf keys on ebay? i guess the dealer still sells em how do you get 2 batts in the key...and what voltage led do i need
  19. any info on the led swap? what led do i need :roll:

    engine 'flush'

    he means to use an aditive in the oil to flush out built up crap...some say it works,some say it dislodges dirts and makes things worse ive had good results using 1 ltr of atf(auto trans fluid) in the oil for a few days then a oil change im not sure id do it on a g60 though??
  22. i brought my pulley from jabba a few years back.he told me they use steel cus the alloy ones tend to sharpen up from belt wear...which sort of makes sense now i realise jabba are bandits ...i just wondered if anyone has any opinon on steel vs alloy

    signs of damage

    look at the condition of the bores..is there a ridge at the top? any scores ? is the surface of the block good? any damage where the gasket went? cambelt is easy to do,maybe a tensioner as well flush it out with a hose pipe in various hoeses ...youl need a oil change too
