got mine. thanks for sorting this out. class gob :thumbleft:

are we pm you adress details? cant wait for the improved results. much needed in my c :dance:

whats the goss on these then mate? any ideas of when they will be ready?

had a break through today. literaly. the top coolant hose has a small split in it and is shooting coolant out right at the coilpack. so nows the time to get a hose kit. what colour would you say is best to go for? ---------- Post added at 5:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 5:18 PM ---------- looks like somebody has been there before by the look of the random jubilee clip in the middle of the hose

ok. pm me if not. just had a hose blow out today so need to get it sorted

samco's still availible?

is this engine only for £200

any pics going?

damn if only i had a the spare dosh. good luck with sale mate

so whats the best kit to get. do all the bolts and washers need changing as says in 2nd post or can yo reuse what u dont get in option 3 of the febi kit?

went to my local mill auto and the aux pump is 30 quid. checked water today and it was low, as i was undoing the cap ot fill it i got the usual burp back but this time before the cap was fully off it shot a load of coolant out the small spout at the side. does this mean excesive pressure some where.

spoiler is cool. any more info on that

i work in a body shop and seen the screens cut out of many cars. myn also needs doin next month. have you seen the size of the knives they use. no joke the blade is 6 to 8 inches long. its inevitable that the paint around the edge will get scratched and damaged. even those cheese wire cutters make a mess of it all. our glass fitter said it was a w****r of a job and saidhe wont be looking forward to doin mine. i have a few rust spots and stone chips on the roof so gona do the lot anyway while im there luckily. as above the sreen sealant needs to set properly form a water tight seal.

its a 95 vr6. that was my first thought about a faulty wire but before i went pulling it apart i thought id ask :bonk:

been happening a while now, occasionaly the rev counter needle will drop right down to nothing while cruising along or will go excessively high. fixed by a liitle love tap on the dash but getting a bit anoying now. any ideas on how to cure the problem. it isnt a constant problam but when it happens it will hang around a while unless i tap on top of the dash area. thanks

any luck withe the pump?

looked on ebay and they all seam to be american sellers. vid gives a clue to its location lol ---------- Post added at 10:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:40 PM ---------- does yours sound like that does it, mine doesnt

ideal thanks. i got a new cap today. 9.22 inc vat so couldnt complain at that. asked about this electric pump and they said it would be 102.58 + vat on top! am i looking at the right part. the part no he gave was 251965561b. also where is the electric pump situated.

got another cap of a mk 3 golf gti. fits ok so will se how it goes for now, not heard of this water pump mentioned above. anybody else heard of it? if i dont get no joy il try a new cap as it will be the cheapest place to start. my symptoms are the same as mentioned by g11 owl tho.

i see what ur saying. il have a good look around the head. might be leaking under the manifold or behind by exhaust manifold were its more difficult to see. ---------- Post added at 4:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 3:40 PM ---------- just been out for a drive and to the jet wash as it is nice weather. when i got home i had a look under bonnet. couldnt see no leak from head gasket at a quick glance but the header tank was hissing so does seem like the seal has perished or not sealed properly. looking at the cap tho there isnta seal on it. just a real thin band around the neck of the header tank neck. doesnt even look like it touches the cap. should there be a seal there?

dont think its head gasket or there would be that milky mark on the dipstick and or oil cap. thanks il try a new cap first. what sort of pressure do the hoses normally get to. when its hot i cant hardly squeeze the top hose at all.

i dont see it escape. there doesnt seam to be no steam. i put some blue towl next to the expansion tank. there is a small hole next to the suspension turret and the rag was soaked next time i cheaked it.

blue.
