16v conversion going wrong
hi, have a 16v kr engine fitted in my mk1 golf, but the guy who fitted hasnt wired up the CSV or the ISV and didnt change the fueltank or fit an accumulator !
the engine was running but stalls when u try to drive it im guessing this is down to the fueling not being rite ? can any 1 help ? and where can i get it wired up correctly in birmingham ? the original car was a 1.6 carb so im guessing the wiring is not easy
any ideas thanks ?

What Fuel pump has it got? GTI spec? Have the fuel lines all been uprated to injection spec?

When the guy did it he used the original carb lines and tank but I've changed the tank at the weekend, and gettin new lines from crazy quiff !
Will the engine run properly if it's not wired up correctly ?
If I get a mk2 fusebox and loom will it just be a case of pluging it in ? Does any 1 know anybody in Birmingham who could wire it up for me ? Thanks for ur help

Sorry yes I've also got a mk1 pump and accumulator to fit I'm guessing that it needs an accumulator !

needs the accumulator, and must be k-jet spec pump or it wont supply enough fuel. dont need the csv and isv to run, csv only helps it start from cold once engine runing it not used. isv just makes it idle better, if you up idle a bit can get away with it if you can live with idle a bit poor when cold.
