    ECMlink 1G ECMLINK V3 timing help

    Hey Jim, I'm not saying you're wrong, but when I compare the timing done with the cam sprocket markings to the timing on the cover, they line up in both instances. I have used an adjustable and verified with both. I was reading on this site and came across timing without the cover, so I decided...

    ECMlink 1G ECMLINK V3 timing help

    92tsi4x4,I looked at my logs, and at idle it seems to average about 10*. It hovers between mid 8* up to about 11*, but mostly stays close t0 10*. Not sure if that correct, but the car seems to idle fine. I timed the engine with an adjustable light like you did as well. I have followed some...

    ECMlink AFRatioEst spikes

    Stapl3,I will look into that. This log was the first cruise log after I was able to get the car to idle correctly on SD. I did a couple of more cruises and used the SD VE adjust tool in link. I think it has become more smooth.I want to add, that those spikes also occur during idle. Usually...

    1G Where to T, and when not (boost reference)

    I used my port that's next to the fuel rail for the Map sensor when I switched to SD. I moved the bov line to the empty plugged port on the side of the manifold (TB wide). Here's a picture for reference. It is a 1/4" bspt fitting. I couldn't get a straight 1/4"bspt to barb, so I had to get an...

    ECMlink AFRatioEst spikes

    Hello Everybody,I am having some funky random AFRatioEst spikes, which in turn throw off the WBfactor. The WB seems to be reading correctly, but is not showing any type of leaning out of the mixture during the spike.Can somebody review this log. The spikes can clearly been seen when I am...

    Going 420a turbo soon.

    If I remember correctly, you should be able to use Evo 560's as long as you wire in the resistor pack as well; you can find them for cheap and they should be good to cover you 7-8 psi plan. Www.2gnt.com has a ton of information about stuff like this. I think that's what I read (regarding...

    420A What 420a manual transmission fluid can i use?

    Amsoil synchromesh is what I used for years. Used it while I autocrosed back in the day, went on countless road trips, and daily driving (I still use it and never had a problem at -40* F up here on startup and daily driving); never had any complains with gear shifting or noise. It was cheaper...

    420A Turbo my 420A

    Stop. She didn't ask if she should sell her car and buy a turbo because of what you think. She asked about the amount of work needed to make the turbo happen. 4-5k doesn't necessarily have to be true either. You can still get a turbo kit set up with quality parts for about 2k (along with fuel)...

    1G 1GA LED Headlight Conversions

    Morimoto is in the process of releasing a set of 4x6 led lights. They look very nice and based on HR review, they are very bright and the price for them is really good. If I lived somewhere where snow accumulation on headlights wasn't an issue, I would buy them, but I am not too confident on...

    1G I don't think my water pump is working...

    How fast does it get up to temp (or hotter than normal)? Is it nice, steady and slow? Or is very quick and short? The reason I ask is because every time I drain the coolant and replace it, I know I will have air in the system. I notice a big difference between engine heating up times when...

    Could also be a bubble in the system and needs burped. Might be worth looking into that as well before draining all the coolant.

    2G Any tricks to help installing a crankshaft pulley?

    He has a 420a. the installation on a 4g63 is easy, on the 420a, though, it requires some effort. I upgraded to an aftermarket pulley a while back. When I have installed it, I've placed the pulley in the oven for some time and then installed it onto the crank while still hot. It slides right on...

    Hello all,I am in the middle of replacing the heater core. The issue that I am having is that the two replacement units that I have received from Rockauto are not right.

    1G Wheel Bearing Seals

    I will share my experience. I haven't replaced the front bearings/seals yet, but I have done the rears. When I installed one of the rear seals, I accidentally installed it backwards. This caused the hub to be incredibly stiff when trying to rotate. The stiffness became more noticeable as I...

    2G Help Me Diagnose my Charging System Issue

    Heat will directly affect the resistance of winding inside the alternator. If it's getting too hot, then that is the reason why the output may be lower as temperature increase. I still believe that you should investigate, replace or upgrade the alternator to fuse box wiring. A .8v drop is...

    2G Help Me Diagnose my Charging System Issue

    Like I mentioned before, if you wanna completely rule out the wiring, you are going to have to disconnect at the fuse box and at the alternator. Then "ohm out" the wires. One of the other members mentioned something about the ECU controlling the voltage. I cannot speak to this with a 2g 4g63...

    2G Help Me Diagnose my Charging System Issue

    With the car powered off, you could disconnect the alternator cables at the junction box and at the alternator, then measure the resistance. If its something considerable, then I would say start looking at those wires and terminals very hard.

    Hail Mary! Ive done everything I know.

    I agree with looking at the dowels. Both dowels should be pointing up. Also, if you have the valve cover off, there are two holes in the cams that should be facing up as well.Has any material ever been removed from the head surface for any reason? If yes, then there is a pretty good chance you...

    The resistor mod mentioned above might or might not work. I've read about it working for some and not for others. In my personal experience, when I did it, it did not work. The code would always come back. A better solution is to hook the system back up, but leave the block off plate on the...

    TURBO WONT BOOST AFTER ENGINE REBUILD

    First things first, before you count anything as broken and start spending big money and spending time tearing stuff apart, do a boost leak test.

    420A Engine install, where do these plug into?

    The grounding cable goes from the firewall to the intake manifold. I have mine connected to that flat piece that let's you adjust the tension on the throttle cable. The other end goes to a point on the firewall (chassis ground). I am not home, but if you still need help by then, I will look...

    The connector in the first pic goes to the reverse switch on the top of your transmission (kinda under the battery tray). The second and third pics I don't know ( sorry). The last one I believe goes to your intake to firewall (grounding point). Sorry I didn't have all the answers, but...

    General IDLE - ECU possible culprit

    I did. There was a couple of things wrong. The first one was that the idle switch wire connector was hanging on by a couple of strands of wire. That combined with some corrosion could've been causing part of the problem. The other part was that the throttle cable was not adjusted correctly...
