  1. well here's some pictures for you to look at but things are not great i have lost the spark and i'm having alot of trouble locating the fault but i'll get there but i do need to get it started before the 11th as it's booked in for the exhaust to be fitted. http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj104/badger180/017-1.jpg http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj104/badger180/019-1.jpg http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj104/badger180/021.jpg
  2. hi people has anyone had trouble with crankshaft sensor on efi mk4 i have taken it out and tested resistance across pins and it stands at 400 ohms which is correct just seeing if anyone has had one thats ok on resistance but still didn't work.
  3. fuel pump relay is under the dash drivers side and it could be either the red relay or yellow one as both need to be working for the fuel pump to work,one is power relay.
  4. ********************************************NEWSFLASH*************************** ************************ We have power, it started at long last..yipeeeeeee. so now its back together with suspension/brakes/driveshafts etc etc and of to powerflow to have exhaust fitted. nearly time to get her on the road.
  5. you will need to change wiring loom for efi or go aftermarket ecu but fuel side is fine and so is rad you just have to do a few little mods and thats it the mk4 loom is the best from what i'm told but tony is the main man on these and has been a real help to me but if you need any help just ask and if i can't help i'm sure there will be someone who can
  6. sort of, i had the cvh 1.6 carb in so if you go back and read the whole post you'll see i had to change everthing including petrol tank /lines ,wiring loom,etc etc.
  7. well i thought i'd catch up and let everone know whats been going on with the cab. since instalation i couldn't get it to fire so first things first SPARK NO FUEL NO good start ? looked under dash and remembered there was no relays in holders so sourced some and hey i had both spark and fuel (get in there) but yet still wouldn't start. so after a little head scratching i decided to check timming and bugger me the bloke i brought engine from had only put inlet and exhaust cams on the wrong way round so striped it down and put them back and reset timing. still no start ERRRRRR so swapped everything i could think of ,edis,map etc etc NO NO NO BUGGER after another long talk to tony (thank god his about) i compression tested and NO all were good 155/155/155/165 after further investigation i found one injector not working so swaped it. still a big fat NO so today was check crankshaft sensor and apon getting it out OPPS it broke so that was it. i disconected everything and dropped the engine back out. i stripped gearbox off and took clutch off. and bugger me some idiot (the bloke i brought engine from) had only put flywheel back on in wrong position and could only get 5 of the bolts in, i also found that crankshaft seal was gone so there was a little oil in the bell housing so i stripped it out and i'll replace that and sump gasket while i'm at it. so the moral is don't buy an engine if you havn't heard it runing or you know and trust the person your getting it from. i'll get the camera back out and take some more photo's asap hopefully i'll be back on track soon.
  8. well i am lost as i've just fitted a mk4 efi loom and the relays are under dash as above so i don't think your quite right, but i do appriceate the help,many thanks for that.
  9. just a quick update i've looked again and the red one is purplie-pinkish and i belive thats the fuel pump relay the green i think is abs but still not sure on yellow or blue so if you know TELL ME please.
  10. come on gang help me out will ya
  11. right i'm doing my zetec conversion and have fitted a mk4 efi loom which myself and tony striped out of a scraper. someone had raided all the relays from under the dash and i would like to know if you can help me to indentify them and also if you have codes for relays so i can purchase some new ones. under the dash in drivers footwell are 5 relay holders colour coded as well there is a . yellow red green blue and light blue which i know is heated front screen. can you tell me what others do.
  12. i'm the other end of essex near colchester so it'll cost ya more in petrol than to pay someone local, sorry chap

  17. hi mate sorry about the darts but it had to be done and yes i modified the engine mount at work today so all i need now is fuel side of things.
  18. well, inbetween the rain today i have now removed the engine and strip out everything looking at having the engine bay resprayed but after a recount on funds i have decided that it'll have to be a good old clean up and touch up job but never mind you can't have everything. here's some more photo's http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj104/badger180/006-2.jpg http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj104/badger180/001-1.jpg http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj104/badger180/002-1.jpg http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj104/badger180/003-1.jpg

  20. well things are on the move now, i've been to chelmsford and striped out a mk4 efi loom with the help of tony (many thanks) and boy that was a quick lesson learnt. i now have to strip my loom out and insert this one. but i do need to be a little bit more carefull as i'll need to put the parts back on again not chuck'm in the boot. i'll bet some more pictures up as and when i do it so you can all see.
