hazell ep91 sr Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Long story short Ive done 4efte conversion. Took ages lol. Went to drive back home from my dads. Engine management light came on. It was in limp mode. Then overheated in minutes and coolant bottle exploded. I think limp mode is caused by not having map sensor o it and using an n/a one? And overheated from not running on tickover with cap off to get rid of air locks? Also had to unplug one temp sensor because fan would be on as soon as it was started. What should i do? Would be helpful if someone could post pics of temp sensor area of loom as my loom has spade connectors for all plugs in that region so need to know if Ive got them right.

Asad Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 N/a map sensor doesnt see boost so yeah you need to change thatThe fan issue may be due to the air conditioning not being present hence it runs the fan all the time, youll need to bypass this its been covered before Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hazell ep91 sr Posted August 13, 2012 Author Share Posted August 13, 2012 Any links to bridging a/c? That would solve fan problem. And lambdas are plugged in. But the 3 water sensors are the ones Im getting mixed up i think. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

hazell ep91 sr Posted August 14, 2012 Author Share Posted August 14, 2012 How do i bridge the wires? Cut plug off and twist them together or? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hazell ep91 sr Posted August 14, 2012 Author Share Posted August 14, 2012 Done! All temp problems were caused by faulty thermostat. Changed that. Bridged ac and changed map sensor! No eml. No limp mode. Running a little warm still. Juat over half way. Maybe becauae Im using my na rad?. But now i have a big boost leak! Only one turbo light comes on. Think its because we put instant gasket on hotpipe flange? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Asad Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Good news mate, could be the smaller rad but deffo keep a close on her for the next few miles....check all your piping/clips are tight...instant gasket would be fine mate aslong as it was applied and cured properly....

hazell ep91 sr Posted August 15, 2012 Author Share Posted August 15, 2012 How long does it need to cure? Hope it is that as this is either a boost leak elsewhere or just boosting low.

Asad Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 id say leave it for a good couple of hours/overnight...if its not dry and you put some boost thru it...it will leak Quote Link to post Share on other sites
A L 3 X Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Make sure it's a setting gasket as well none of that non setting bollocks.Can you hear a boost leak? When I blew a boost pipe off it was extremely loud and the car wouldn't pull at all lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hazell ep91 sr Posted August 15, 2012 Author Share Posted August 15, 2012 It seems to just be boosting only up to 1 turbo light. Like low boost mode but i havent got a boost solenoid so maybe vac lines are wrong? Also its stilll running hot and fan is coming on alot. Thinking my water pump may be on the way out?.

hazell ep91 sr Posted August 15, 2012 Author Share Posted August 15, 2012 Ive got some gasket paper now so will put that on hotpipe instead and see. Just need to sort this running hot business out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
