    vr6 rado/twin fan

    my car seems to build up quite a heat when left to idle... after looking into it the fan on the left(the one without the motor) does not come on, just the one on the right does - is this belt driven? if so how much and how easy?, my rad also seems to have a few small bashes- i assume this wont help ? cheers for any help
  6. cheers again, its appreciated- hope all is ok wi the job...
  7. LOL!!! lets say its not working- what are the posible causes, switch thermstat- what can i check ? cheers
  8. not sure my fan is kicking in, any simple checks i can do ? also is it possible to connect it to a switch so i can turn it on/off manually if need be ? cheers
  9. Right...IT WAS THE COIL PACK!!!!! thank god for that i was beginning to worry..... £133 but at least it is sorted, took the old one off and it looked pretty rusty on the inside,old looking-it was a Beru that was on it- but im affraid i had to put a Beru back on!! lets see how long it lasts... !!
  10. right= i have sprayed water around the coilpack and saw nothing... however it is now spluttering even more i think,,could that be an indication?? spoke to a local garage who are supposed to be quite good-they said they could test it but i never got a price.... is it worth buying one ???? cheers...again...
  11. not tried the coilpack yet(mist of water....) but trying to get some prices.... main stealer £225 +vat euro carparts £117 + vat...beru ??!! i know folks say the beru can be problimatice but i hardly use my motor say 4000 miles a year... what do yous think...any other places i can try.... thanks again...
  12. ok..well just checked the blue temp sensor and its not that... i have reseated various conectors and still no joy..i will try the mist of water on the coil pack...tonight..!
  13. its in a mk2 golf...there is a funny looking connector under the glove box..think thats it.. no water or oil leaking... car had been running fine too...it does sit around alot sometimes a week at a time as i have a company motor.... what about this temp sensor thing...??!! cheers
  14. OK folks i need your help on this.... Battery was flat and has been playing up for a while so i replaced it. put new one on and left disconnected for about 15 mins... THEN AFTER GOING FOR A SPIN FOR 10 MINS IT STARTED TO RUN VERY SH*!E. NOT RUNNING ON ALL CYLINDERS...??? i have changed the plugs and checked the leads with a meter-all seemed ok.. still poo?? what hell can this be..coil pack...some kind of sensor???..i really dont know.. sometimes it seems to clear but most of the say 85% it really struggles... help...thanks very much folks..
