Re: Au motor in the EA SVO

Hey guys, haven't been on here in years, thought I would finally finish this thread..

The fuel pressure difference didn't have any negative effect. The car worked a treat in the end. But the final touches were;

The temp sender for an AU motor didn't work with the EA/NC gauge.
I wired the gauge and computer in parallel at first, then the computer got no temp reading, and the gauge didn't work, so it ran really rich for first few weeks, melted the Cat Converter. Thats why it was slow.

I fixed the temp reading problem by putting the AU thermostat housing and temp sensor on the AU engine and then ran the gauge separately and the block temp sensor to the computer.

Bashed the insides out of the Cat and hey presto!

Then it went like stink and I crashed it into a pole.

If anyone wants any info. fire away.
