today i aligned the bonnet and both front doors on the mk1. i cant believe how much better it looks pics soon
cant get the mk1 to run properly it barely idles, any g60 experts on here?
the blue temp switch was new last year
co pot is 650 ohms
timing is spot on
coolant is full and bled
its overfueling badly but cleans up when revved up soon as you let off it hunts and splutters and cuts out
i also fitted new injector seals, a new inlet manifold gasket, throttle body gasket and the 1 meter hose from the throttle body to the ecu

Also what ECU are you running? Digifant in your 16v g60?
If so a worse case scenario is the injectors drivers have gone in the ECU due to a bad earth.
Try the lambda first, on mine the earth lead snaped with age and caused those symptoms.

Hi George try running with the lambda disconnected. Check all the wiring to this is OK. I had a similar problem with my 8v g60 corrado.

Hey rich
I've had it with the lambda unplugged and it runs the same.
Il double check the wiring
It's a rallye 1h 8v setup
It has a superchips chip in the rallye ecu, can a chip go bad?
I also drained the tank and filled with 98ron just incase it was bad fuel.

Next check and clean the main earths. The ecu is very sensitive to poor earths.
Also check you definitely don't have any vacuum leaks.

Try cleaning the ISV with some carb cleaner, make sure you disconnect the battery before unplugging this as I've heard horror stories of it killing the ecu.

i heard that too, although i dont see it making a difference as i have a check valve between the isv and breather to stop it bleeding boost.. - always been like that, im gonna check the earths properly once more
