Whooo Its final Done Well amost everything all on ...

But ive got a wee problem it won't start..It just turns over but won''t fire up,ive took my walbro just incase it was that but its defo pumping fuel...

But im too sure on my battery as its been sat still for 5weeks with the battery connected and it hasn't been started since...

All the dash light come on but maybe theres no enought ummpphh to spark it up...Would it idle or even start up with the Lambda disconnect...I mean even plugged in? as mine aint...

 

[DaNnY_LaD]

Ive just done the fuel pump test by disconnecting the fuel line and turned it over and a 3 second turn over filled the Glass up..

So its without a dowt pumping fuel...so 2morro il have a look at the spark ....shame really as it turns over fine but just dosnt start up..

Didnt do it for 2 long as i didnt want to flood my engine..

Im gonna take a spark plug out with the coilpack still connected and see if i get a spark..plus il smell for fuel in the spark plug hole

 

[h17och]

you got the pump pumping the right way

 

[DaNnY_LaD]

you got the pump pumping the right way

hi hooch

I havent got the Walbro fitted i disconnected it and put the lines back the way they were..

 

[DaNnY_LaD]

Ive just took the coil pack and spark plug out of cylinder 1 and put the plug in the coil and rested it on top of the engine roughtly 10mm away from the rocker cover..

And it didnt even spark...NOTHING...

So the only think i can think off is i might have touch my WOT box wires going to the coilpacks...So will check them tomorrow...

EDIT:

Been chatting to cupra Matt..He's asked me to check the following

1: Circle Plug under inlet manifold
2: Wirers Going to the coilpacks (WOT BOX)
3: 10mm Brown earth wirer in ECU chamber..

Can't think what else i can try as i vag-commed it and all i got was the sensors i unplugged AIT,Lambda,TPS And battery thats it nothing that points me in the direction of spark..

 

[DaNnY_LaD]

Any ideas anyone on what i could try

 

[ChrisCurzon]

Have you checked all the stuff me and cupra matt suggested?

Write down everything you have checked so people know what else to suggest to you

 

[Spud_G40]

Not sure if anyone has suggested a USRT wiring loom for your walbro or maybe you want to do it yourself, but it makes things soooo easy in comparison. Anyway thats what I have and all it takes is to solder in a signal wire from the N75, and hook up the power wire to + battery and earth the other two and thats it.

 

[h17och]

n75?

 

[Spud_G40]

Yes

 

[ChrisCurzon]

No its nothing to do with your problem Danny but have you plumbed your n75 back in anyways, i just remembered cause i know you took that jubilee of it the other day, just came to me then!

 

[Spud_G40]

No, hooch is questioning me, not Danny

 

[ChrisCurzon]

No, hooch is questioning me, not Danny

Yeh i know, i worded it a little wrong, i just remembered it was unplumbed the other day when i was at Dannys, just came to me then to remind him, as i know he sometimes forgets as hes always trying to do 10 jobs at once! Ive re-worded it now

 

[creedy]

with my s3 and my mates polo gti after a couple of weeks with battery disconnected they both would not start until the throttle body was aligned

 

[h17och]

why would you wire your fuel pump to the n75 when the fuel pump has its own signal wire?

 

[DaNnY_LaD]

Good point lol...

Ive Cleaned and replugged the circle Loom Plug under the Inlet manifold and checked the ecu earth..

So it isnt them:

Now were is the Crank sensor? if it wasnt plugged in or was broken surely it would throw a code? as im gettin none with vagcom..

Gonna check the wireing to my coilpack 2moro...

I proberly fitted my 3'' Tip 2night put a longer length of 3'' in to make more room...So got 3'' from filter all the way to the turbo..Just gonna give it all a clean and repaint the rocker cover then i can get the DP done..

also what program can i use to scan the bracket in? as it would need to be the correct size if someone prints it out..

 

[DaNnY_LaD]

Thats Everything all Bolted on and is filled up with Oil and Coolant...

Just gotta find out why i have no spark but il trouble find that 2morro...

Engine Bay needs a Good clean now but here it is all done..

 

[DaNnY_LaD]

WOooooo Its alive.... im Prober made up...

Theres wasn't enough Juice in the Battery to make a spark....So it idles fine Theres no Oil or fuel Leaking....

Just Gotta Get a Downpipe made up now then im one step closer to it being finished...Ive Just gotta sort out my walbro as it leaking Fuel when the hoses are connect but when the Walbro isnt Installed in the lines it doesnt leak.
So il have to look more in to that maybe 2morro But im over the moon

Big Thanks To Curzon & lauren For helping us out..
