Tornado red 16v ABF jenveys

Its running at last, fitted two s/h injectors and then the one that was working packed up so fitted another two spares i had and it coughed and spluttered into life, Misfiring as tappets didn`t have any oil in them, once it had warmed up slightly it did tickover of sorts, so i left it ticking over for a while and once the oil had come up to temp tappets finally filled with oil and all was quiet, tickover was still slightly lumpy but i can live with that i thought. But i restarted it this afternoon and when cold it will not idle so ordered 4 new injectors, as spray on them isn`t consistant and i think this is the main problem

 

pic of the gauges lit up, wasn`t really dark enough, heater controls have a new unit installed



rear seat with the paint on it



If anyone has a spare please give me a shout

 

To make the interior a bit more up to date i`m going to install heated seat pads in the front seats, and make the sunroof into an electric version to go with electric windows and will look out for electric mirrors to.

 

There's a decent sounding rear seat for sale here, but I'm not sure if it's the same fabric as yours:

Love it.

 

Lots of potential here, look forward to seeing it finished

 

Thanks i did see add, rainbow trim though

 

great work so far, keep it up

 

is there absolutely no way that paint wont come out?

Good work so far..keep it up!

 

I spotted that pattern of trim not so long ago on e-bay.ca - I will keep an eye out for you in case another one crops up.

A decent set of sports seat covers would get you out of a pinch until you can get sorted with replacement trim.

 

I have got some recaro's I can put in it for now, let me know if you see any trim.

 

actually drove it out of the workshop today, what a great feeling, I know its not far but gives a little bit more enthusiasum, still go cold start running issues but will sort the injectors then go from there.

 

Good oil pressure on start up, 1.5 bar on tickover when warm

 

rear part of the bbs rs rims

 

Paint may not have penetrated too far, could you reverse the cloth on the centres?

 

Centres have been slashed with a knife but a good thought

 

I`ve been offered a 1.8T 20v from a friend he was going to put it in his caddy but he personally isn`t capable of doing it himself so its up for sale cheap! do i by it for this car? what a dilema

 

Buy it

As long as the engine is in good condition (internally), you won't regret it

 

apparently good motor, so started reading up on wiring but got a bit lost, will need to find out what engine code and what it comes with, but i believe ecu and wiring and box, I`ve looked for installing guide but where is it? cheers

 

Don't do it. Abf 16v at the most
