Re: 406 sri engine idling to high?!

You want to fiddle with the plug to the beige squareish lump mounted on the side of the throttle body opposite where the linkage turns Try unplugging it and see if it makes a difference to anything. It should make a huge difference for the worse. If it doesn't, you've likely found your culprit. I h...

406 sri engine idling to high?!

I fitted the 205 1.9 gti inlet manifold while I was waiting on my new coil pack to arrive, After I fitted the coil pack and inlet I started it up and it idles just below 2000 revs. Can anyone tell me what the problem could be as I have tried everything! Idle control valve is fine.

Thanks

Re: Does the 205 1.9 gti cam fit in the sri turbo?

I dont even know if I am going to do it know, as I was speaking to a guy the other night who had researched it and says the flow is not that great and pretty pointless to do, so he never done it, but then again my mate had it done to his, only thing is that it aint running to see if it feels differe...

Re: Does the 205 1.9 gti cam fit in the sri turbo?

Yeah I know that theyr wont be huge gain, but I have got the 1.9 inlet manifold to fit onto it and got offered the cam, so may aswell see what difference it makes. I am going to ecosse at the end of the month to get it rr before i fit the cam, so will be able to see the difference after.
