1200, slowly unravelling
Posted by jPhright rs t, Jan-26-01 03:57 PM
well- today we looked at the fuel pump
the fuel pump now makes noise- why??? maybe because the fuel line isn't being suffocated anymore...
it's not that loud though- it's just sortof a high pitched sound
but nothing that unbearable...it's cool- you can hear it from outside the car...
in addition to this i noticed that the fpr was installed- super ghetto...rigged on with little tie straps...
so- the car will be heading back to hocus after i recieve my vc1
well- we cleared all lines and the fuel flows very well
drove it- still had the same problem,
so now we know the problem is the vc1
we also spotted an oil leak coming from the oil pan- not present until turbo install
going to get the turbo timer fixed too...
so- when i see my car next time in march/april everything should be cool...

When you get it back to them, ask them what the VC1 clamps at. Anything about 4.7 will cuase fuel cut.
