For thos with similar symptons tried the coil pack and hey presto she is running perfect, turns out the earth problem on the starter relay is unrelated.

Still not having much luk here however the problem is getting worse. The car now misfires regualarly at idle to the point that it will stall.
Going to try replacing the coil pack first.

Folks Ive got a really strange problem that hopefully someone can help me with. Basically the engine was out of the car and had a new clutch and turbo at the same time. Put it all back together and she ran fine but required the AVCR to be reset. After a few days this was done and the car was making ...
Hi running 15psi, or at least trying too :oops: AVCR is taking a little time to set. Fuel is usually optimax but sometimes BP 97. As regards timing I aint got a clue just what ever it was set too before. Long story but bought the car from a cheat who sold me a pup which Ive slowly been getting useab...
thanks gents. Ill get a plastic bottle rigged up today and monitor it. It could actually be the gearbox as you say, I used flushing oil to clean the engine out so now the engine oil is a lovely gold and cant tell if its gear or engine but must say it didnt smell like engine. Put a new rocker cover g...
So after replacing my turbo which has cured the smoke on overrun I started to set up my AVCR which had lost its settings. So after some high boost runs I find lots of oil over the gearbox, engine oil that is. I have the crankcase vented to atmosphere via a KN filter, no catch can and it seems to be ...
Gents I have a 91 rev2 tubby and only have one key and fob which is in a very sad condition, still working but I fear not for long. I have the above alarm in my car but dont know if its the original fitment so wondering where I can get replacment fobs? I dont have the original key card either but a ...
Thanks Bob, Since the turbo is making boost okay Im hoping its just the oil seals. What would the typical rebuild costs be and can anyone recomend a suitable place to carry out the work. Also the turbo is a CT26 Hybrid although I dont know who amde the Hybrid. The car makes 310 BHP so guess it must ...
Sorry Sir, Heres the car, http://i1090.photobucket.com/albums/i364/craigwallace1/mr2/PICT0013.jpg http://i1090.photobucket.com/albums/i364/craigwallace1/mr2/PICT0002.jpg I love the car itself. It looks like the engine is okay just got a leak but the turbo is probably gone since it smoke on upshifts,...
Gents I am suffering fairly heavy smoke only after releasing the throttle with the turbo making boost. Is this typical of the seals in the turbo failing or would this smoke constantly? It def sees turbo related as I can drive without any boost and theres n smoke.
Thanks Craig.
Please excuse my first post as being of this nature. i was a member several years back when I had an Mk1 but cant remember ny details. So here I am around ten years later having just purchased a turbo Mk2. Something Ive always wanted and got the chance of one with built internals and hybrid C20B tur...
