  1. As promised, a few better pictures of fuel tank in car, pump and filter, and a few of my new brake lines, bias valve and battery cables. And i've made my own short shift by modifying the original gear selectors on top of the gearbox. I just drilled a new hole closer to the pivet point of the selector, cut the old pin off, then welded it back in its new hole. I did that on both of the selectors, and i tell ya thats some serious shifting power!!! I've also mounted some gauges in the center console, oil pressure and temp, boost pressure, and air/fuel gauge (WHICH IS NOW FOR SALE-OFFERS
  2. Hey looks sweet mate, got any pics of it the motor?
  3. I'd say pump then mate. Injectors are quite reliable, and a pumps probably cheaper?
  4. oh ok. just out of curiosity, what was it?
  5. I'm not sure on this but you haven't swaped any wires over on the coil, that would cause it to go live with ignition off???
  6. No, pretty sure it won't. You can't mix an match 6cyl and 4 cyl gearboxes and engines
  7. Why don't you change the sump gasket an see if that cures your leek? There cheap enough, not too bad to do, might be worth a shot?
  8. Did you bleed the system through when you changed the filter? Sounds like theres loads of air in the system if its only bubbling through.
  9. I know its a long shot, but have you checked for play in your thrust washers on the crank? It may sound silly! Can you get a pry bar between the block and the pulley on the end of the crank, and see if theres any movement.

    Any ideas as to what size wastegate i should use with the 60-1??? Is bigger better?!
  11. Thanks for the enthusiasm and support! You can see why i didn't need that fuel flap part that i sent you
  12. The 1 i had on my 1993 odb1 was a 4bar regulator, and it was a genuine vw item. IMO i'd go with the 4 bar reg
  13. What a minger!!! Liking the red interior detailling....
  14. If there only for 4 cylinders its because the vr engine is heavier and needs harder springs up front. Can't get link to work! Why not look out for second hand lowered springs if moneys tight??
  15. Lambda wires will go straight to the ecu mate as it requires that signal

Fuel filler cap, From inside, I'l get some better pictures at the weekend of it in, changed where the pump and filter are going. Moved them to underneath the fuel tank under the car.
  19. that the 1 i've got, by peter russek. its good enough to re-build an engine by, but pics are a bit vague
  20. i've got a different 1 but its just for the engine. What do you need it for mate?
