Cheers will try and contact him.

Cheers. I don’t know of Mike Dempster, does he have a company or a member on the site?

Exactly what I thought! But he says it’s cold start only. Been having another play today and plug lead no 3 was not clicked on properly and refuses to. I’m ordering a new set from Just Kampers. Hopefully this will cure the problem.

Hi David, that makes sense the switch is brand new but was not connected I asked the previous owner why that was he said for some reason it didn’t work properly he replaced the switch and still no joy. However he said it’s only employed for a couple of minutes so can be left disconnected.search me! ...

Cheers guys for the input. It’s definitely running rich the plugs are jet black but it’s always run rich, the thermal switch is also disconnected. I’ve never had this issue before. The throttle valve is correctly adjusted as well. I wouldn’t know about cold injector, but no issue when first started ...

Nothing else to do so went for a spin bearing in mind the car has been running great! I join the motorway and accelerate to 70mph no issues drive for about 15 mile and decide to come off the motorway and head back. Drive down the exit ramp to the roundabout and the traffic lights are on red the car ...

I have a couple of NOS filters (square) I assumed it would be something to do with the flow guess I assumed correctly. Cheers David.

Wow, no idea. What I suggest however get yourself a copy of Volkswagen fuel injection technical manual, by Henry Elfrink. It’s very comprehensive, plenty of copies available on eBay.

Bought a ticket for Sunday show and shine will see you there if your staying till Sunday. Will be in my type4.

Great job, looking forward to seeing club members!

Hello I would fancy the trip in my type 4 / 411 le. That’s if there is available space. Rob

Sounds like a project I could manage. Many thanks.

Oil pressure gauge, I can see the reasoning behind that. Where would you plumb a pipi into the system?

Comprehensive, cheers will contact them and see which they advise.

Hi all and happy new year. I would like to set up a temp gauge on my 411, thinking it would be good to know. The engines FI anybody fitted one in the past? I need to know is it possible and where to begin. I don’t think I’m experiencing overheating but wouldn’t know if I was. Any input would be great.

That’s a “bahh humbug” I’m the lucky one got Christmas off this year and I don’t mean from work, no family in sight!!

Indeed! Hoping to get out and about and meet you guys.

Well can draw a line under this episode, the first garage responsible for the damage have finally payed up! I didn’t think they would but they have. No need to name and shame and no more stress ie making a small claim application. A massive lesson as been learnt any problems insist they sort it whil...

Googled understeer last night, main causes.... driver!! So will put that to one side I’m an excellent driver. However could be in danger of going down the boy racer route of bolting on every available accessory and convincing yourself you have the best handling vehicle on the planet.In reality it’s ...

Big difference to what I was quoted. This was all about handling and the reviews on the Toyos were very good, thinking now I should bite the bullet. As for the strut brace not sure on that, combined with a double anti roll bar, also bolt on item go for test drive see if it makes a difference. Don’t ...

Hi all re tyres got some prices to go on, was taking the advice of soft tyres so Toyo VW classic work out at £82 each or Nanking £39 each both soft compound. Going for the Nanking, also thinking of a strut brace just to start with this can be fitted and removed with no issues, down side it would nee...

I agree it’s booked in next week for four new tyres.

Mine are 22 psi according to the manual, however the tyres are twenty years old, no perishing visible but would be wise to change them I think.

Sorry! That should of been understeer.

Thank you for the replies that was interesting reading. A definite design fault then. That’s only my opinion! Probably best to stick to the motorway. I’m not experiencing any wheel wobble, fingers crossed it’s more a case of oversteer on tight bends.
