Gaz6002 Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Welcome. I think the problem with it running might be the different colour piping. That does tend to affect the operation of the ejector seat rings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marc_p Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Drinking evens me out. I was actually directing it at the OP, although you may have already known that and I am now posting this for no reason whatsoever apart from to highlight the fact that your joke response went straight over my head and now I look like a tool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter P Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Throttle body looks like it's second-hand/not original? was this always a TT? or did it start off as an n/a? May be worth doing a video of it running, so we can hear how it's idling etc? I know my old car was quite irratic at idle , cutting out etc but I changed the throttle body for a polished one. Re-fitted the old one, and it ran fine again! Hope you get it sorted fella Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hodge Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 The problems with the car all stem from the company who did the TT conversion. And believe me, there are some problem for sure. I'll be on the case soon enough thoug and it will be as good as new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hodge Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 Si don't worry I'll get to the bottom of it next weekend. Off the top of my head this is what I think is wrong:- The car is decatted but had NO Restrictor ring or fuel cut defender, which is why it's hitting boost cut. The turbo vac lines were all plummed in wrong which tells me the car had a boost controller fitted and when they fitted your engine they did not put it in and also DID NOT know how to plum the pipes in correctly. The speedo is way out because your speed converter is faulty or missing. The rev counter doesn't work because an N/A rev counter doesn't work in a TT. The electric fans don't have a fan controller and are wired into the ignition The engine IS NOT earthed to the chassis correctly Battery tray is missing Battery clamp is missing. And also from what you told me about the missing plugs in the footwell the auto electricians found were gone (if they knew what they were talking about that is) the loom has been butchered. Due to the engine having greddy pulleys and a Titan crank pulley, I'm guessing (but I could be wrong), it's had some sort of aftermarket engine management hard wired into the loom and pulled out again without the wiring being correctly soldered and heatshrunk. I'm not going to know everything for certain until I get my head into it, but dont panic, it will be fine in then end dude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
