VR6 Fuel Pump Relay clicking

11 December 2012 - 10:43 PM

HI guys,

I am helping a friend out with a mk2 OBD2 VR6 conversion and i've come a little stuck.

I've ran the car up to temperature today and everything was going swimmingly. Radiator fans kicked in when it was hot so it was running fine for a good 10 - 15 mins just sitting there.

All of a sudden it just stopped. I've tracked it back to the fuel pump not getting power/not sending fuel. When I crank the engine I should feel just one click as i am turning it over. But as I turn it over, the relay is just clicking like mad.

Any one have any suggestions? I have swapped out the relay's for another 167 and another 67 with the same persistent issue.

Gotti Dishes - Where?

13 November 2012 - 11:40 PM

Hi guys,

I'm looking into getting  a set of 16" gotti splits but I know they will need to be made wider to fit my car. I think they come in at 7' all round and Id be looking to make them at least 8 - 8.5 all round.

Does any one know if any other dishes (BBS, Schmidt etc) will fit gotti's since these are more readily available? If not, where or who can I get dishes that will fit gotti's?

Any help would be great!

No dipped beam mk2 golf

06 September 2012 - 11:16 PM

Im having an issue with getting dipped beam on my gold at the moment.

I have replaced both the switch and loom to the fuse box but I can only seem to get side lights and full beams.

There doesn't seem to be any voltage coming out of the fuse box on pin a1 at all. The fuses and bulbs are fine so I cant seem to work out what is going on....


Any ideas???

Shopping list for car cleaning after re-sprey

15 August 2012 - 10:35 AM

Hey Guys

I am due to have my hands on a shell that's had a very recent re-sprey. My Current car I have always looked after and had various standard cleaning products to hand, but the paint was never the best so didnt require too much looking after.

Since all my products have pretty much depleted  can you guys recommend me a full shopping list for someone that's new to looking after a FRESH re-sprey but with out going mad on getting everything. Just the essentials for keeping it clean/maintained.

I have a pressure washer already...

  • Snow foam adaptor + snow foam for my pressure washer. What product to actually use? Both adaptor + soap
  • Grit guard bucket
  • 2x new buckets
  • new Sheep wool wash mitt x2 (what make? Been using meguires mitts for years but find they fall apart)
  • Multiple microfibres. Ebay? How much should I be paying?
  • drying towels? No idea.....
  • water scraper? Been using meguires one for ages again but don't find it that effective at removing water
  • Speed detailer
  • glass cleaner
Can any one else think of anything else I would urgently need?  Reccomendations on where to buy this stuff for sensible prices would be great too!

Re-pinning Lambda plug

21 June 2012 - 04:22 PM

Hi Guys,

Basically two wires have been pulled from the ecu side of the engine loom out of the lambda plug.

Since they have only pulled out I was wondering if any one knew the correct pins that I need, and the tools to remove and then refit the cables back in?

Thanks!
