You need to lighten up Geoffrey. Right now, i can only see one dick on this thread. To save any misunderstanding, it's the guy who took his engine apart without taking photos or making notes beforehand, and now needs help from others to get it back together again. As to my "Guess what" op...

Should be obvious if they are there or not.

Its not right to be calling any member a dick. Place for learning and sharing and enjoying our cars. Peter is a top bloke highly regarded on the site and often gives accurate free advise to members where other specialist garage ( other makes ) would charge. His humour can be dry and possible to mis...

That's the cold start switch, not temp. sensor. Thanks mate. Would the cold start switch not let the car idle when hot? would you know lol Guess what - the cold start switch only works when it's cold - and switch the 5th injector on for easier starting. So it has nothing to do with idling and nothi...

Dont worrie about the EGR vacuum or exhaust gas recirc (EGR) valve, thats for the us.. Do worrie about your fuel pressure regulator , the vac line should run from manifold nipple to regulator with no t-pieces fitted . The other goes to map sensor... A t-piece to boost gauge if you have one is fine....

This engine bay pic's quite helpful .. http://www.mr2oc.co.uk/ku2/mk2enginelocations/engine01.jpg .. Those two ports are for the map sensor (you know now) and fuel pressure regulator (make sure this is hooked up). Good luck mate :thumleft: Ps. if the car fires up then dies 5 to 10seconds later, thi...
