come on guy's plse help a limey in need,i have done an idi to tdi and the thing will not run,i am ready to set fire to it,and in a rush, coz i is about to move so need it of my drive it my sister's car,what have i done wrong,guess will be gud????pls
Boost control problems aren't gonna make the engine not run... so as Andrew says, more details on exactly what you've swapped and exactly what problems you're experiencing would give you a better outcome.
Thanks for the response guy's,deep breath................right then,what i have done is swoped a td (aaz 1995)for a tdi (ahu 1997)so i thought that if i just swoped engine looms sort of plug and play, that i would have a running tdi the only part that i didnt have was the pedal assembly so i used the 020 g/box and clutch assembly from a 8 valve gti,the tdi engine turns over but will not start,i was told that i could have fryed the brain,so pluged a code reader into the old girl and no trouble codes found so don't think i have fryed the brain because it would not to talk to the code reader is that right?
??The plug on the pump has 3 wire's going to it of these 3 wire's i have a supply there while the ign is on,(black yellow trace)now just to add to my confusion if i leave the td clock cluster in i have dim lights on the binicale with the ign on but if i plug the tdi clock cluster in i have two warning light's on (water and oil)when the ign is off when i turn the ign on the glow plug light is strong and bright it goes out and start's to blink
so any pointer's would be a great help for a electronic diesel noob
many thanks jay
