I was using this map for my ignition on 16V engine. Use with 98 octane fuel.
Compression ratio was 10.5:1.

Check that the mixure is rich enough or else you'll get slight detonation over 5500 rpm. ...

Hi!

Is it possible to change the rear wheel bearing on a 33 with a rear disk brakes and ABS or you need to change the entire hub?

I've been looking for the bearing in the SKF catalog and there i ...

I have one. I`ll post it when I get home from work.

Ok!

Thanks!

I think that the parts won't be a problem since I'm very near Italy Smile

.

I've checked everything. No errors on the ECU, all sensors reading normal. The thing is that this is not the original ecu instalation from my engine. It came from a donor engine. Including all sensors ...

Air filter is new.

Hi!

I've measured the emissions of my engine and I got the following results:

CO=2.37%
O2=1%
CO2=9.5%
HC=330 ppm

The car is a non cat and witouth a lambda probe. Engine code is 307.46. The ...

Hi!

I've managed to get the rear calipers with the mounting bracket for the 33. I now have classic drums on the rear brakes. Do I need anything else to do the conversion?

Thanks!

Hi!

I've looked at the link. So the diode is used to protect transistors and IC (in case that they activate the coil in the relay) when the relay is powered off.

But the main relay is activated ...

I've noticed that the relay (S12b) that powers on the motronic ECU on the 1.7 16V engine has a diode in the circuit that activates the relay (pins 85 - 86). What is the diode for? Can I use a normal r ...

I've checked the page. I've figured out those two diag connectors. As for the ignition advance, there is a table on that page. It says: yellow relay -> 95 octane fuel -> with lambda probe. But m ...

Hi!

I'm assembling the wiring on the 16V engine. I've managed to find out what are all the connectors used for except the three connectors shown on the image (two connencors and the short-circuited ...

I did 43 MPG with a 1.7 16V engine, 2 pearsons and a fully loaded trunk. No CAT, but standalone fuel management with lambda correction. It was all mostly open road, and maybe 15% city driving.

I've ...

Hi!

I'd like to know if there are any difference between the struts with 4 bolts?

Thanks!

Neo
it is ok for car of that age. Best I could get from my P4 are exact same measurments.
At its peak, when everything is in great condition, you'll get 14.4V exact at idle, and maybe 14.1-14.2 wi ...

Yes, I've measured the voltage on the battery terminals.

Thanks!

Hi!

I had a problem with the alternator. When I turned on the lights and the ventilator, the battery light on the dashboard started to lit a bit. Then I measured the voltage and I got 12.8 volts. I ...

Hi!

I had a 1.3 engine and I've replaced it with 1.7 16V. I'm using the gearbox from the 1.3 engine, and it has that hole needed for the pick-up for the injection. The car is 3rd series.
The only ...

Hi!

Does anyone have an idea how to protect the fuel tank from rusting from the inside?

Thanks!

How much can we safely take off the top of the piston to get the compression ratio up.

If you do that you will lower the compression ratio.

where r u from?

Rijeka, Croatia

Hi!

I'm having trouble finding the 16V starter spacer so i decided to make one, but I don't know the tickness.
So if anyone knows or it can measure it I'd be very thankful.

Best regards

Nena ...

I've assembled the engine that way in the end. I was confused with that picture in the manual where you can see the engine in exploded view. In that picture the left bank cilinders have the conrods ro ...

Hi!

Can anyone post me a picture or explain me the conrods orientation? I've looked in the workshop manual but on some pictures they are turned one way and on the other pictures the other way. I th ...

Hi!

How can you tell the difference if the piston is made by borgo or mondial? I've looked closly the pistons, but nothing is marked except the direction arrow, size and class. On the inner side is ...
