so been fettling...lots of little issues I am trying to sort out. still not got round to having fun with the pump. But on inspection I have found I have only 80% throttle due to cable... so looking forward to 100%
Got me a fan switch sorted out....
Temp fitted my cool VDO dials...from a audi quattro for all those VAG lovers.
All wired in nice and neat as those dials sit on a circuit board and it came with the part loom
Once I have sorted some other trim bits out, it will all come out, be glued in and filled/smoothed and painted to match. Should look nice and OEM.
Note the speedo/dials standard match the VDO gauges....wasnt a coincidence!
Also note, much nice steering wheel! Its lovely and sits exactly where I want it. Can just reach the column controls
Still none the wiser about my boot lock...sometimes not open. Always locks though. Wiring is fine. Guna try new servo next.
Next thing to do is replumb in new EGT and boost gauges which royal fail are sorting as we speak.
Also I have no fog light or glow plug warning lights with ph2 dials and I miss my oil level gauge....so the ph3 dials are in bits...will get the ph2 dials apart when take it all out for smoothing/painting and will make some Frankenstein ph2.5 dials!!
Aux auto tensioner has decided it doesnt want to run true anymore, wearing edge of belt rather quick...so up early to whip it out and replace with manual.
Otherwise its running just fine need to get fuel/boost sorted though!! and get to a local RR for proper setup. Ruan rekons remove use of LDA....but that scares me too much!
I also need to raise the rear, just 10mm or so, sits that little bit too low that it irritates me. But all came apart quite well and we cleaned it all up and greased it...so cant see it being too much of an issue.
Still looking for a new bonnet
