Hanging Wire

[Matteo 17 1 Cars]

Hello, one week ago I bought my 205 GTI 1.9 year 1988. Today, while I was fitting the K&N kit, I found an hanging wire. It goes near the flywhell housing, but I don' t know where it should be connected. Is it a crankshaft position sensor? Is this the reason the engine runs not good at very low rews with little load?

Hope you can help me.

it's nothing to worry about, and has nothing to do with the

the engine runs not good at very low rews with little load

Ok, it is a little good news ;-)

But what that wire is there for? Where should be connected?

[M@tt 77]

its the diagnostic socket, isn't connected to anything

A great relief, thank you!

 

So, why the engine runs unevenly at low rews with little throttle, while at runs great at full load and rews? AFM defect? Idle is constant at 1100 rmp

I had this problem on the 205 out the back, see if you can borrow another AFM and connect that up, should hopefully sort the problem!

I think I just found the problem! The AFM fitted in my 205 1.9 is Bosch 0 280 202 056, but I think the right one is 0 280 202 109.

Now I look for a correct AFM for my car ;-)

ahh, you have a 1.6 AFM on a 1.9, check that you have the correct ecu and injectors.

[Matteo 17 1 Cars]

Yes, checked ;-) I have 0280000359 ECU and yellow injectors. I also have the right engine D6B . I only miss the correct AFM

Now I know 1.9 engine with 1.6 AFM runs bad when you drive slow.

i have 2 spare if you wanna...

Thanks Roman, but today I bought a tested AFM from France. It should be modified with "seven staples more than original for more power". I don' t know exactly what it means, but it sounds good ;-)

"seven staples more than original for more power".

 

gotta love it

Is this reader to be connected there?

 

Is this usefull? It is for sale on Ebay

On the 1.9 Mi16 all you need is a bit of wire connected to the diagnostics socket and you count the number of flashes from the "k" light, wouldn't be surprised if it's the same for 8 valves engines. Anyone?

Thats tester you've found on ebay won't work on the Jetronic system as fitted to the 1.6 or 1.9 GTi & it doesn't have a diagnostioc socket like the Mi16.

 

The lead you've found is for plugging into the diagnotics machine at a Peugeot dealership (or garage with the correct machine) to accurately read the engine rpm.

 

That same sensor is used for the rev counter on the 205 STDT/ Dturbo.

Thank you, Graham.
