tdi power

The op could try a different spec's t-stat from one of the other vw variants! i think i did this at one stage but can't remember which way hotter / cooler i went.plus the cr had been lowered considerably on this car.

Ending with not enough fuel or too much fuel and plenty of smoke?

A nice find and thanks for the info! i believe a lot have members have had this same issue over the years and never caught / sorted like you have.

Tick!!:)

I would guess at it being your clutch or and flywheel..........can i also ask if you have done any fueling mods recently cheers!

If the crank pulley sprocket location notch has warn slightly it will do as the op has described? I was very fortunate at one stage where there was only a millimeter or two left on my sprocket wheel , by this time i was setting the timing on a daily hourly basis lol. I remember just afer...

Nice work Rayan!! It's great to see someone (uk) picking up the baton from where Simon Cooper left off and taking it to a couple of levels on very impressive figures indeed!!

What about using a vent on the low pressure side and we unit for high pressure end which should have less to no lag plus no surge

Go with the 12mm cam plate and if you know of a good diesel pump guy! you can also get a plate with even more lift with less steep profile , plus the pop pressures needs to be optimised with head cam and size of nozzles used......................Also depending on how big you have gone with your...

Yes!! But if you fitted a larger turbo and injectors it can be made to work well with a good increase in output.

It looks like its in great condition and at a great price too for someone in the US who want a boost in power with an easy nozzle change thrown in.

I totally agree! Just changing the cam on its own will not bag you anything and make the bottom end lazy because it will prolong boost being made..........This type of modification needs other mods to be carried out along with. Even adding more fuel with larger injectors hammer mod will only...

I once jumped at the chance of having some Bio fuel made from the UK division of the company Nortech Petrochem , which was a 100 cetane GTL and gave a natural 4 degree's of advanced timing. The smoke output was very low compared to the average uk pump diesel , I had x2 50L drums sent to me via...

Did you really only want to address just the clutch point i made and forget the rest? You crack on!! no doubt the car will be up and running a 100% in no time:rolleyes:

You need to find the small leak in one of the vacuum hoses.

So more or less sorted then!! great.

After changing the EGR valve did you also clean out the intake manifold as it has probably still got a lot of crud in there = smaller air ways. Do you know if all the small vacuum pipes have been changed at all. Has the car got good power at the bottom middle and top end? If you take the maf...

WOW it looks like its been dragged from out of a pond..........No matter how much it costs i would replace the lot..........I do hope you don't carry your kid around in this motor:eek:

For one i wouldn't run fully Syn in this engine.............I did once and the top end got pretty loud i didn't know what it was until i realised the oil was the only change from standard i'd done on this service. Once we dropped the oil and put back some good old Castrol 15/40 semi syn it ran...
