ive taken a few pix of certain parts of the motor, i just need to know if these are anything that i should be looking into getting sorted.....

Image

this is a lone black wire coming off the coil, should it be going anywhere??

Image

there is 2 vaccume lines for the wastegate, should both of them be occupied?

Image

this is a line (vaccume??) coming off the rocker cover... should it be going anywhere? or is it just a breather?

Image

this is what looks like a bosh BOV it doesnt vent at all and it looks like stock from a diff motor..... possible intake leak???

Image

There is a terminal ontop of the thermostat housing with nothing going to it.... is this right?

Thanks for any input guys =)

Yes, That wire runs to a little voltage regulator thingy which is earthed & located on the distributor (behind where your hand is in the pics)

See Below.....this is a line (vaccume??) coming off the rocker cover... should it be going anywhere? or is it just a breather?
It should be going to the base of your inlet manifold at the front, But there is a hose going from that already i can see in the picture going towards the front of your motor over the top of the rocker cover. If that hose is going to your wastegate (which i will bet it is) Then the hose you have in your hand needs to go on the other wastegate nipple.

Depends, Fix up all your other issues first and if all else fails block it off and see if that works
There is a terminal ontop of the thermostat housing with nothing going to it.... is this right?
Dunno bout this one.... My thermostats are different to yours. Does your temp gauge and thermos work? It can only be a sender to one of those so if both work, Dont worry about it someone has got the signal from elsewhere.

Thanks for any input guys =)

also the hose from the rocker cover isnt long enough to reach the waste gate, i should get a longer one??

and ill connect the wire from the coil to the screw thats situated ontop of the dizzy... the screw looks like its not serving any purpose.. so im guessing thats the earth point

Yes you'll need a longer hose, But please DONT just attatch that + wire from your coil to the distributor, It needs to have a resistor-voltage regulator on the end of it!!! If there isnt one on your dizzy it could have been moved to your firewall like mine, It doesnt particularly matter where it is as long as its screwed to metal. That wire is the positive feed and the screw to metal is the ground. If you cant find one in the vicinity of the length of that wire then i have one here you can have. Whatever you do dont earth that cable though or you'll fry your coil at the very least

1. From the pic it looks like the capacitor on the side of the dissy, for noise suppression.

2. Do not route this back to the inlet manifold as the wastegate won't operate, it's the vent for the internal diaprahm, if required ensure its routed back BEFORE the aircleaner.

3. This is positive crankcase ventalation (PCV) there should be a "block off" bolt in the middle of the inlet manifold below the injection body.

4. The blow off valve should operate.........does it have a strong enough vacuum signal?

5. The sensor is for the imported model, if your temp gauge works don't worry about it.

Ah man :roll: Come round to mine if you want and i'll give you a coil and the capacitor? :D Next time read my post properly "DOH!!!"
All good man, Just hope its only your coil......... :shock:

im not to sure it is my coil, my thermo fan was setup to work whenever my ignition was on... now it doesnt work, i tested the coil with a multi meter while the ignition is on and got no readings..... any suggestions?

Andrew, His Block off bolt for the PCV has a hose running to the Wastegate. So in a sense he is just running an "open" Crankcase at the moment. Could he just put a PC valve on the end of that hose to at least stop dirt and nasties from sucking up that pipe into his rocker whenever that hose sees - pressure? IE: High rev shift changes etc?

Are your dash lights coming on? Is the car cranking? If so its more than likely its a relay, Fusible link or fuse.

I personally would just splice the PCV hose into the wastegate hose, at least that way positive crankcase pressure is not vented to atmoshphere.

yeah ill try that andrew..

ok propperly explained this is what happened......

i had the engine running.. whilst it was running i grabbled the loose wire from the coil and i accidently arked it on something, the engine idle dropped and sounded like it was missing, so i turned the engine off and it wouldnt start again after that.... i used a multi meter and the coil with the ignition on and there was no power, if it is the engine relay where in the engine bay is it??.. and what else could it be? i doubt it would have effected the ECU or could it??
