  1. if i plug a abd eds unit into my loom , which does not have it the eds part ,A : will it work and b: will i then get the eds . or the poor mans traction control thx jim
  2. id say you have a fault pete... have you put a multi meter on them , measure the voltages etc... it may be a start.. did you have to chop the loom at all?
  3. no worries nigel, i have a fair few meteres of nice blue vacum pipe, ill try replacing it..but im sure it the temp sender to the ecu, as the car never gets above 70, and i no that the fueling is related to the temp.
  4. arse thought as much, i picked up the one for the vr thinking it would be the same..ill change it tommorrrow for the right one... anyhting else nigel it may be, symptoms as above.. i persnoally think the zorst is blocked as its very raspy and flat, not at all like a good valver
  5. anyone no where the coolant temp sensor is located on the 2.0 16v abf lump.. we brought the car from russ vr6, and the car itself is great , but its suffering from poor performance and very poor mpg. also the temmp dont go above 70 ish degree's..so we are gonna change this first then the other little bliters.. any photos would be great , as its a little difficult to change it in the dark.
  6. dale, no need for you o damage your pride and joy , as its a fun weekend ..anyone that drives like theres no tommorrow, deserves not to make it round.. why not come for the trip and get some passenger laps in other cars..plenty of them going.. its a once in a lifetime trip for some people..camping will keep the cost down, and if you dont do loads of laps or any then your gonna save 100 ish euros there.. if the ferrys already booked , then its only petrol..and as we aint setting any landspeed records this year , then it should only be 4 tanks tops , for the whoile round trip. the choice is you
  7. yeah its getting close now, im off to raf woodbridge for a trackday this saturday to set my suspension up , and give the car a shake down...as it nowe sits in the garage all week long.
  8. i got the prices from the a google related page, although if its getting nearly as bas over there, then yeah fill up at the bp before you get on, and then we should be ok till belguim/germany..
  9. guys, as the last post failed.. anyone no what wires do what on a obd2 lambda sensor, i need the signal wore to get my gauge working..as they are 4 pin, im gussing 1 is =12v 1 is earth 1 is preheat and 1 is signal ...its the signal one that i need.. please help
  10. pull yourfinger out tony, you can do it...itd be a shame not to come now , so close yo the leaving date.
  11. hi has anyone got this, or whats the signal wire on the lamda sensor?? im trying to fit a air fuel gauge... thx jim
  12. yes , but that was 2 months ago, it seems to have settled at this rate for a few weeks now...maybe a intrest rate cut would do us a favour, as would no recession in the u s of a. it all plays a part anyhow, im still going, but the weaker the pound the more expensive.
  13. i doubt it, its constant at around 1.30 , depending on where you go.....
  14. yeah i nkow i fukced up the camping , my bad!!! and yah for no snow anyways, 1 of my mates cant go so, he has a ferry ticket up for sale...i assume we can get it transfered to another car..if so that means someone can get the ferry out with us mad bunch pm me if intrested jim

  16. ditto, happy birthday...my 32nd is just round the corner
  17. ah yes , how do i attach a .xls file... bloody thing wont let me, or can anyone host it for me..?
  18. i put together a sheet for the guys that are coming with me,. as they had no idea of rough costs, this is based on 1 person in a car with fuel prices as of 27 dec 07... it includes upto date ring prices and camping. it may help people , that have not been before..
  19. no, im sure if ytou ring them upo you can transfer it, subject to a admin fee.. its the same way that you can add passengers names at a later date. got to be worth a go
