    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- just had my golf vr6 1992 MOT'd it passed on the CO emmissions at 0.91% non catalyst test even though its got a CAT on it thats new. i thought the CO emmissions pass was below 0.30 % or am i wrong??

    cheers ash' date=' my lambda sensor is brand new. well im waiting for my multimeter to come through so i can test power to ignition coil, but from searching the ignition switch causes havoc! where is this ignition switch located? steering compartment im guessing? regards[/b']

    0bd1 ive got a few 109 relays ive tried.

    try the MAF mate if it runs better without it, it points to the MAF i believe,.

    no joy anyway budd, tried the spare relays. waiting to get my multimeter so i can see if im getting any voltage to the ignition coil. also from what ive read ignition switches play up, im guessing thats it the steering wheel compartment somewhere?

    im trying to get a spark but have the fuel pump relay out as i dont want to pump fuel into the bores, so pop relay back in you reakon if 167 and 109 only work together?
  9. paceo
    i bought them relays off you didnt i? ill try swapping with my old ones buddy. 109 is ecu and 167 is fuel pump relay.

    not sorted guys, engine speed sensor code was the only one that showed but fitted a brand new sensor and its still not firing up! still getting no spark at all!! have taken spark plugs out and dryed them as they were wet with petrol

    just out of interest? :-)

    all sorted guys, had it on vag com and its the crank position sensor 05113 fault code coming up. thanks for the help peeps!

    temp sender not sorted it, was only £9 so no big loss. getting no spark now it seems and wont fire at all now.

    only replaced it 2 years ago, but spoke to vince @ stealth racing a minute ago and he said possibly temperature 2 pin sender is faulty.

    update guys- left the car overnight so the engine was stone cold, started up fine and drove 1 mile round the block and left on the drive to idle, as soon as it gets to operating temperature it cuts out and wont start.

    sold my old 4 bar regulator on ebay the other day for £8 quid! :-(

    cheers russ got it from ebay non genuine done about 500 miles on it, bloody just got rid of my old genuine FPR!! im thinking could it be the CAT causing the engine not to breath right, but ive drove 20 miles or so on it and its been fine???? lambda is brand new as well budd.
  20. paceo
    cheers russ, FPR was new about 3 months ago. just got it running again after i let it cool down drove it for 1 mile driving perfect and it cut out again. i did put some fuel additive in it, 400ml of injector cleaner that reduces emmissions etc. maybe the engine doesnt agree with it??? link below- http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/221057506741

    weird one, fitted my brand new catalytic convertor for MOT the other day and was running fine. got home today after a 6 mile drive home from work and went to go out 5 minutes later and the car wouldnt start and smelt of fuel. left it 15 minutes started it and it ran fine then 3 to 4 minutes later it cut out again and wouldnt start. had a look at fuel lines from tank and engine and no splits etc... any ideas? ive replaced all sensors like temp etc... a year ago.

    just fitted my catalytic convertor back on for the MOT and it was blowing a little, so i smeared some red high temperature silicone over the joins and now all is good after a few days. i take it they wont say anything?
  23. paceo
    thanks sankys, its a bit blurry, will strip my doorcards off soon though!

    as title silly question really, golf vr6 has MOT next week and was wondering if the better fuel brings emissions down a bit? also had a re-map @ stealth racing a few weeks back, will this also reduce emissions? thanks guys for the help :-)
