Someone has been busy then. I have just wrapped up the metering head to chassis leg brackets and remaining gear stick parts for you. Will post out asap. Lets get this thing rolling under it's own power soon.
YES!! i like the way you think, There was something i was gonig to ask weather you had or not but i cant remember....damn!! BUT! when people say weighted linkage i know its just like metal welded onto the gear selector rod, how much weight should i put tho?
yeah basically thats all it is. if you are unsure of the weght simply clamp metal to the rod with a jubilee clip and try it, play with the weight till you're happy then weld!
fair enough mate, thankyou. Just didnt wanna go put **** loads on then be like " oh...this is crap!" haha
do a google search for missing linkz he does a bolt on weight kit to give you an idea. the weighted ball linkages and bush kits can be bought off chaps on here now from the entrepreneurs section too
I DONT LIKE GEAR LINKAGES! I've put on the new stuff Danster has sent on me BUT....i must have done something wrong beacuse....well it feels **** and doesnt move eough basically.
It will need adjusted to operate correctly. It only takes a tiny change to the linkage adjustment on the splines to make a big difference. What gears can you get at the moment. And we like pics too. This may show any potential issues.
okay mate, well i can only get 1st and 2nd. but everything is abit stiff, i know i wish i could get photos too, i dont have a camera i my iPhone died about....45 seconds ago...
Ok, only 1st and 2nd gears sounds like the clamp needs slackened off and the linkage rotated slightly. If it is going in and out of 1 forward position (1st gear) and one rearward position (2nd gear) then that is good. You only need to adjust the across gate part of the linkage.
hopefully this will help, very last page covers the alignment measurements under the car http://www.vwgolfmk1.org.uk/modules.php?name=Content&pa=showpage&pid=44
anyone got like a simple wiring diagram for th Kjet? because the one in the haynes manual makes no sence to me and looking at it and just like doing it confuses the **** out of me, any ideas, links to pages that might help? Ian
have a read of my guide on how to read vw wiring diagrams, that'll make everything much clearer. the vw wiring diagrams are actually very good and easy to read once you figure out what everything on them means, they look more complex than they really are. the k-jet wiring is a piece o wee anyway, bugger all there! most of the wiring is in the bay anyway, nowhere near the fusebox. just have live feeds for the wur and iav, plus a starter live for the 5th injector thermoswitch. then 5th inj gets a live from starter, and earths to the thermoswitch.
