Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Confused. Can someone 'in the know' take a look at these figures?

So, looking in the BGB I see that the igniter is connected to the tacho. This is looking more and more like the issue as when it cut out the tacho dropped like a stone to zero revs. Should I just replace this or do the coil at the same time? EDIT: Nevermind, I just found you can test them with a mul...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Confused. Can someone 'in the know' take a look at these figures?

Possibly coil pack / igniter? Had some weird running issues with mine recently, culprit was the igniter which gave good running one moment then flat running the next. Also had random starting issues (lots of cranking) and hovering revs (circa 4k) but not down to a stuck throttle. Aha - that would m...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Confused. Can someone 'in the know' take a look at these figures?

May be out, but are you still using the Rogue/Radtec CC? Wasn't there a flow issue when used over 1.4/1.5 bar or was that a different one? Is your spec still as per your garage? Interested as there aint many of us T67 users about! lol Hmm... I was wondering whether I should take off the turbo -> CC...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Confused. Can someone 'in the know' take a look at these figures?

Went back to the RR today and still no joy. I replaced dist. cap, leads, rotor and plugs yesterday - did an oil/filter change at the same time. Drives smoother on the road but still down on power. Patrick @ Rogue suggested that the exhaust baffles might have collapsed, resulting in back pressure, so...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Help with wiring for charge cooler pump please!

I have mine wired up to the old IC fan circuit. This puts the light out on the dash during normal running and lights it up if the pump fails :thumleft:

Received mine today from Dallas \:D/

£149.90 delivered and only took 6 days from ordering, they also put the value down as $30 without me even asking, so no duty :clap:

Yes mate, as long as you have a compression tester of course. I picked mine up from a local motor shop for about £20.

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Confused. Can someone 'in the know' take a look at these figures?

Thanks for the replies guys. I think this runs a little deeper than just different tuners/dynos as I can't see the figures being that much different - i.e. a loss of almost 100 bhp and the torque peak moving from 6000 to 4600 rpm. I have a couple of things to try, will keep you posted on the outcome.

Yellow MK2 **** YEL & Cosmos Blue MK2 behind dentist in Wootton Bassett

Yellow one drove past me as I was pulling in to my garage (Just outside of Lyneham, Wiltshire).

I also see a Cosmos Blue regularly parked up round the back of Cottage Dental clinic in Wootton Bassett.

Anyone on here?
