Awesome Stuff Dude! She Fires and Purr's!

These little issues are easy fixes now im sure! Onward and Upward!

[rob_bower]

Yea I sorted the fuel leak yesterday and fitted my bov bung but then it wouldn't start again think I might have flooded it though as now I have fitted my fuel pressure gauge I could see the fuel

Pressure at 6 bar. Lol

I also had a look at ro55ifumi's v to compare wiring and vac lines etc just a few to block of. Need to look at tps,s to are they all the same or do some have 3 wires and are square and some have 4 and are oval. Anyone any ideas?

[turbo Grant]

The turbo manual tps are all 3 pins. The n/a and auto ones I've seen are 4 pin oval. Bet you can't wait to have it ready to drive

[Rob H@RCH Engineering]

6 bar you just need enough boost to match it lol

[rob_bower]

Lol don't think the engine will take it.

The turbo manual tps are all 3 pins. The n/a and auto ones I've seen are 4 pin oval. Bet you can't wait to have it ready to drive

Strange as the looms are out of stroudys v which is a manual. I need to have a dig about see if I have an n/a tps anywhere to try then. No I can't mate got alot on at the mo but once its running ill tale it up and down the private drive just to move it.

[Socks]

Yes... I do believe there are 2 variations in TPS dude... Oval & Square do ring a bell to me... Bit like the inlets on some have a water port and some dont!

Yeh way too much fuel pressure dude, think standard fuel pressure is like 3.4bar lol

[rob_bower]

Yea I thought as much. Yea I'd not set it at that its just what it was at after I rebuilt the fuel reg. I turned it down now but think it might have flooded the injectors ill try it again when I get chance.

What shall I set the pressure to till it's mapped? 4 bar?

[Socks]

stock pressure and drive it off boost until u get it mapped!

[Rob H@RCH Engineering]

I would set it to stock pressure and set it up when its been mapped.

lol socks bet me too it

[rob_bower]

Cool it won't be going anywhere for a while yet. lol

[sharki_p9]

yeah man ! con gratz!

[rob_bower]
