White VR6 in Windy Yorkshire! :)

Recommended Posts

You can gently move the slot that opens on the top , it's on a spring . Also use electrical cleaner on the plug and isv end . Like Jim says , it's worth getting another one too .

Cheers Rob!

Panic buying now! £££

 

 

Sunday meet with Sanky:

Ordered from ECP: Carb + Brake + Electric cleaners

Bought from eBay: used ISV [034133455B]

Airbox: No luck. Only a G60 one on eBay for £50 and a new one for £170 :eek:

Wayne, I've had a good look again this morning but I can't find the aiairbox. I must have binned it when I had a good sort out a few months back. Sorry mate.

As advised by Sanky:

Just spoke to my VR6 Specialist garage (who did the work),

 

He said ref stalling: 1st job clean the THROTTLE BODY

Ref scan code 513: Scan it with engine running (also advised by Sanky :))

 

 

 

 

ECP (Keighley) is ACE!

They just rung me to confirmed my order is ready!

How cool is that ?! :)

 

And they dead quiet (compared to busy busy Bradford)!!!

Wayne, thought I best let you know that I have a couple of working isv's in my garage, one of which I suspect was from a VR6 as it has one bigger hose fitting that my others.

D-Day -6

 

Deffo no stock airbox to test today...

 

Will see what we can find out today.

Today is the ONLY time I want my C to stall EVERYTIME!

So we can rule out what we have done each time :)

 

If it don't stall, it could be we fixed it or it could be it decided not to stall today :(

 

 

Stock airbox confirmed despatched :)

Still waiting for order on door handle bolts + foot depal rubbers ...
