ENGINE PROBLEMS -FUELING

[rado-fever 0]

hi guys

I own a 91 corrado 16v gti kr-engine code.ive rebuilt the engine(its taken ova 10 months!!) im having problems starting the car.few quetions

1. could any one provide wiring diagrams for this especially the engine side of it .not sure if i wired up correctly :(.and what votlage ,current and resistance i shud b getting( i think ther might b a short.

2. wat contralls the opening of airflow plate when vechile is cranking and also when u on the ignition to prime the injectors.

i put back all the induct pipes and took off 1 fuel injector,swiched on the ignition the fuel pump buzzed and then turned off there was no priming of the injector so i took off the induct pipes and lifted the airfow plate a little bit , the fuel squirted. while plate up i turned the ignition on and off it squirted. i let go of the air flow plate and switched on/off there was no fuel. why?

the same test i done above when i cranked the car i got the same results(that i had to lift the plate up with by hands in order to get the injector to squirt) why?

the timing is spot on ,the compression is 100% and theres is a very slight resistance felt when lifting the plate but not enough for me to think that its getting stuck and plate falls back in to place wen let go off

On the g/box end of the engine there are three single connectors. Placed around the outlet pipe. Looking at it, top left is Yellow/Red; bottom left is Green/Red; top right is Blue/White.

The single one 'just round the corner on the back' of the engine is Green/Black and fits the sensor sticking out the back just there.

(There are two earth wires connected to the top of the block just here as well, one is Brown/White and in the same sleeve as the sensor wire, other is Brown and comes down sleeve from the coil area).

The oil cooler has two sensors, front one is Yellow; back one is Blue/Black. There is an unused wire tied back which is Blue/White.

 

This helped me and boost monkey hugely, hope it does the same for you... :wink:

Not sure about new/2nd-hand or typical prices for a metering unit, but for wiring diagrams etc, look here:
