restoring 2g to 100%

[rtrocket59]

I go to bring my car to get tuned via DSMlink, the shop said my car wasnt in good enough condition just because a bunch of small things that added up. the guys at ivey tune were very honest and helpful and told me a bunch of things that my car needed...
injector clip harness
maf clip
cam angle sensor wire (6 bolt motor on 2g)
water temp sensor disconnected (car only works when not connected)

does anybody know where i can get these harnesses? and why the car wont run with the water temp sensor hooked up?

lastly they defiantly didnt like a loud screatching sound when the car would first start up and you pressed on the gas. we couldnt even figure it out because it was so loud! any ideas for that?

i wanna get my car tuned soon so your help is greatly appreciated!

I may be able to help you abit. I have a 1995 TSI AWD that I have been parting out and I still have the engine wiring harness. PM me if you are interested. Thanks and good luck.

Easiest place to get the wire connectors is a junkyard if you can find a turbo car there.

If that doesn't work out,

For the injectors.
Set of 4 Quick-release Jetronic/EV1 injector plugs with pig tails

On the sensor, might just need to replace it. Should > 30$ at any autoparts store.

In regards to your coolant temp sensor, it may be bad. If it is bad your car will not start.

im gonna have a dsm guy take a look at my car to see everything i need, than ill come back to you guys to see where i should get it all.

The squealing noise you are hearing is a belt. One of the accessory belts is either too loose or too tight. Check them all and replace any that are bad.

Plug in your temp sensor, then kick the key to "on." With dsmlink logging log the coolant temp and get back to us with what it reads. If it's -71 (or is it 74?) it's bad. Basically if it reads anything way off from ambient temp then more than likely it's bad.

That loud squeal could be the harmonic balancer (crank pully) might want to check that out.

thats exactly what im gonna do once i get the link installed.... havent got the chance to get it done yet.

and im talking to BoostBuddyGSX from jsm motosport so hopefully theyll want to take my car in and fix all these problems.
