Sparky Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 That heat wrap should be plenty mate And yes the first sensors can be removed from the bulkhead and the piping that goes to the inlet blocked with a vacuum with a screw or bolt in it.Not sure if I removed the lil black sensor near the brake cylinder though I'll have to double check for you ro check my thread and see if you can see anything.And charcoal canister can come out just let that pipe that goes to the tank breath somehow, the little black box is a different size so you'll need a big pipe.

nazzurro19 Posted March 23, 2011 Author Share Posted March 23, 2011 cool ill give it a shot after pod , ill get some biger pipe n then cable tie the small end down , it will pass mot wont it ? or will it be to fumey lol surely that charcol canister is just for the A/C gas stuff ? or am i a thosand miles off the principle of a charcol canister?

Sparky Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 Tbh dude I aint gotta clue but with yours being a mk2 it wont need the full emissions test so should be fine, but yea could cable tie the smaller end I suppose Link to post Share on other sites
nazzurro19 Posted March 30, 2011 Author Share Posted March 30, 2011 right well today i decided to take out the aircon sensors wiring etc , all was going well i undid all the brackets took off all the sensors etc, removed all the plastic tubing stuff and then pulled all the bits off the inlet and pull the tube off the pvc only took about 30 mins then i decided to take all the wiring out for the clips , so started to pull it etc then it got stuck and i thought it would be a good idea to cut it so i did and this then happendreally eratic idle, whilst panicking i then realised DUH! i hadnt blocked off all the parts of the inlet so i did that and guess what same thing so i come in absolutely in tears to search the forums , then "BING" idea i remembered i forgot to put the pvc back on and guess what it was fine phew!! haha so whilst at it i decided to sort out my high idle , now the cars running sweetso heres a few pics incase any of you guys shit ya pants too or get stuck so these are the wires to the clips that are up in the left hand corner of the engine bay, all i done was cut it and taped it all up and tucked all the wires back into the plastic box thing from the back of the enginei.e. these clips so heres the before pics and the after i also got some more goodies through the post to go with the build im currently building up parts for haha a gasket , thermal wrap etcand a lil gathering of the boxes and parts i have making the GF complain lolonly got gauges left to get and oil etc then turbo and ecu and jobs done anyway as the thermal wrap was here i decided to wrap my FMIC pipe before - crappy lookingafter all wrapped n shiny n nice ad lastly one nice tidied up engine bay and then really really lastly the amount of crap and weight saving from it all sorry for the essay Link to post Share on other sites
