  1. chaps im still running mega rich. im literally getting less then 20 miles on 5 litres of fuel (shocker).



    ive ran the diagnostics and got the output here if you want to look over it - https://efiles.jerseypost.com/link/SnSM8hroYFhQ83qsrZ4AmD



    compared it with my diag from my 5efhte and cant see much variation but someone might have a keener eye for stats then i do.



    any ideas now?



    revised nearly everything:


    - map (tried 2)


    - rotor arm (tried 2)


    - dizzy cap (tried 2)


    - magnecor leads (and standard ones)


    - swapped coil pack


    - gone over wiring


    - timing


    - tested ECT sensor


    - lambda sensor



    havent looked at TPS yet however it reads on the logger the same as my 5e with -- null


  2. Never owned a starlet with standard suspension and after I realised the previous owner of my ep81 had cut the springs to the point it feels like it doesn't have any I put a set of standard ones in and now it feels like I drive an off roader.

    Not my pic but basically how mine sits.

    Is that normal?Posted Image

  3. Personally I wouldn't buy one without doing a comp test it doesn't tell everything but it's the minimum imop

    When I sell them as well I'd let people them take the thing apart if needs be I'm fussy as fuck myself so even when I buy them to sell I end up treating them like my own and doing way to much to it

    Wish they were all like u dude in that respectPosted Image

  4. Knocking = fucked engine (repairable).

    (black/blue) Smoke out back = fucked rings or turbo.

    White smoke out back (steam) = possible hg failure.

    Low compression (if u test it) = engine rebuild

    Plenty of dodgy sellers (see negative feedback area).

    But also plenty of good sellers aswel as forum people who will help you with whatever you buy

  5. Depends what you put in it I guess.

    Bought and sold my old one for £50, very handy extra for those who like to keep the interior tidy.

    Will have to see if it sits under my recaros if not £50 it is. Cheers

  6. All sorted boys. Was the lamda sensor that was causing the issue (odd cause that lamda worked fine in my gt).

    Anyway swapped it out for a 4 wire one and used the existing cabling for the signal and ground then even wired up a harness for the heater and now all is running as expected thank fook.

    Thanks to TrisK for the wiring diagrams and as always colin for input knowledge and guidance

  7. Ok so had another look today with the zf logger running and noticed that the ecu believes the engine is running full lean .

    So when I looked closer saw (and remembered) that the 2e engine ran a 2 wire lamda as opposed to a gt's single.

    So question is what to do with the brown one?

    Do I bridge it to an earth and run the single wire lamda it swap in a 2 wire lambda?Posted ImagePosted ImagePosted Image
