  1. For those mounting their alternators under their chargers.What ribbed belts are people using on their 16v g's? Standard belts? cheers.
  2. Well done Wayne,this will make a great reference thread. Well done CrazyDave.
  3. My job takes me to new places everyweek all other the south of england and wales.The tomtom serves me very well to this end.
  4. cheers cheesewire. I will invest.
  5. Can anyone recommend a good manufacturer/supplier pls? thanks.
  6. what state of tune/service is the car in?
  7. 30 mpg if driving reasonably. :)
  8. I 4 one would like to see a picture of this car. I think it only fitting after you've managed to breath life into it. :)
  9. tri-locks.Pieces of $hite. local tyre and exhaust got mine out for me. I won't say the firms name though so I don't get them in trouble. :0)
  10. does the knock sensor look ok?
  11. one off the fp relay and one off the main ecu relay as per that version 3 wiring diag. This also mimics the standard wiring setup.So it just made sense. :) My o2 sensor will be supplied from the fp relay. Megasquirt and my injectors will be powered off the main relay.
  12. very soon. I'm doing my g60 engine initially. Ive already spliced into my loom for my two switched 12 volts feeds. Tomorrow I want to make up the engine loom.. Anyway,good luck with yours.
  13. A really rich red.very nice.
  14. this will help. http://www.corrado-club.ca/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4198

    1.only for abs faults if the car has ABS 2.under the gear stick gaitor ta.
  18. yup,thats what i'm goig to be setting mine for.6 degrees b4 tdc. Good luck,I'm going to be embarking down this road very soon so you can be my trail blazer. :wink: I'm sure your almost there ,just keeping imagining that momment when it starts and you play the air guitar or do the moon walk or whatever you do in times of joy. :) NOTE TO MODS Can we have a moonwalk avtar pls? 8) p.s its not something silly like firing order is it? No offense mate,but u know whats its like wen u are working on stuff like this and u 4get silly things. cheers
  19. are you using a pull up resistor between the + 5 volt reference (I think pin 27) and the tach input signal (pin 24). On a g60 type dizzy the hall sensor works by sinking say 5mA if you used a 1k ohm resistor.This pulls the voltage at pin 24 low to create a square wave. MS just passively reads this signal to determine engine rpm. Hope this makes sense. Best of luck to yah.
  20. I would have thought it would need to be just after for a MAP sensor no? I have left my mark3 haynes manual at work. I'm off at the mo but should be passing in there at the end of the week. I remember thinking that the later Haynes manual has quite alot of technical data about the abf engine so ...
  21. Yan.Do u mean these ? http://www.airlines-pneumatics.co.uk/we ... de=S010142
  22. So you going to make 3 holes and t-off the other two connectios a-la g60!? How do you make these taps air tight Yan?
  23. I'm talking about head to cam timing.Not cam to cam timing. shouldn't take u long. I've only done it on a raw block on a valver i.e head emoved from engine so its easy to set each component to tdc.I'm sure someone will be along to tell you which pulleys or engine faces have what timing marks on them for reference.
  24. you can check the cam to head timing though mate. :)
