Last night we took the TriStar TDI and the camera to the Quesnel River and we had some fun! Today I learned about MS Movie Maker software and made a 30 second...
David, That looks awesome! So much torque to lift front wheels as if it is a motorcycle!!! Congratulation! Costica ... River and ... made a ... power! ... ...
I'm not sure if it is killer toque or if it is assisted by going off the edge a little... but it looks impressive! :-) David Marshall Fast Forward Automotive...
Probably because a 'taller' front suspension can't extend much more than static height in rebound. Engine sounds cool though. ... off the ... previous ... ...
All, Just before the turbo, on the plastic intake pipe, there's a sensor (AHU motor). Any clues as to what it is? I dont have any left over wires that I...
This is the air intake temp sensor, which is required to make the TDI engine function correctly. David Marshall Fast Forward Automotive Inc. 4356 Quesnel-Hixon...
uh oh, I thought the air intake temp was after the intercooler, so I put one in over there. hmmm. Maybe there's 2, as the temp sensor I got from VW was...
The air intake sensor IS supposed to be after the intercooler. The sender in the black plastic tube running next to the engine in the AHU Jetta (top pipe) is...
Just a newbie to this group who would love to participate in the fun since I got a trial by fire when I went to work in a VW shop last August. I put a '96...
Ask kennedy engineering for their input. I don't see why you would want the vanagon transaxle. Aren't a good selection of gear ratios available for the 911?...
Welcome Jeb! ... KEP will sell you an adaptor to put the TDI on the 911 box. I know this since I have one sitting here waiting for me to put the 911 box and...
OK, so Ive *another* sensor, that's after the MAF and before the turbo?? Ive looked in the Bentley, but it wasn't in the "unknown thingies" section. Costica,...
I have never seen a sensor between the turbo and the MAF nor between the turbo and the intercooler. David Marshall Fast Forward Automotive Inc. 4356...
Speaking of KEP, has anyone had problems with the lower tranny/adapter plate coming apart? Twice the lower nut and or studs have come apart while hundreds of...
(sorry if this appears twice!) For financial reasons I have to abandon this project, and am offering it to listmembers. (sorry for the re-list) Includes...
I have never personally experienced this problem, nor have any of my customers experienced this problem, or at least what has been reported to me anyhow. The...
Well, about all I can say is it has happened twice now, both seperated by about 3k miles. It is 'possible' a stud was bent during install, but highly unlikely...
Interesting response from KEP... the TDI weighs in about the same as the wasserboxer - on the wasserboxer the crossmember is at the rear of the engine where my...
True, but the stock setup uses through bolts and longer studs at the base. I really don't think the problem is the tdi, rather the strength of this fastening...
steel inserts sound like a pretty decent idea to me, if one plans to stay with studs. the have the advantage of more surface area of threads in the adapter ...
... if I am not mistaken, I believe I identified this as the CCV line heater. Or heater for something like that. It's the plug on the top of the intake for the...
... Just had my '82 stock diesel trans out on the weekend. The stock 50 deg mounts balance the engine *perfectly* when trans it out, unlike the waterboxer. As...
There is the heated CCV valve - not necessary to run the vehicle though. David Marshall Fast Forward Automotive Inc. 4356 Quesnel-Hixon Road Quesnel BC Canada...
Hi Douglas, My engine is a 1.9 TDI code AHU, made in 98 in Mexico. My engine has a rubber hose that connects CCV to Turbo Intake pipe, and in that spot where...
Thanks too all for the constructive ideas. I think steel inserts will do the trick. I have a lot of respect for kennedy, and plan on working with them- to...
