Xu10j4 Inlet

Recommended Posts

Hi,

Ive got a 1993 405 Mi16 2.0l, and i decided to ditch the plastic inlet and go for the gti6 inlet. Ive read a few threads here and there (here and the 306 forum) and it sounded not too much work. Got it all on, and suffered a few problems (dodgy wiring done by me, that sort of stuff) and its running nearly ok now. Only problem is, it wont idle properly, the revs keep on fluctuating between 1500 and 3000 rpm, approximately. I'm using all the sensors from my original manifold and ive tested every sensor I can think of, just wondering if anyone has any ideas? The only error code in the ecu is for the solenoid that used to work the ACAV system, but ive tried with that on and off and it obviously doesnt make any difference. What is confusing is that it runs exactly the same with the idle control valve unplugged, is it possible this has failed?

 

any ideas are appreciated.

 

cheers

Stuart

Can't say anything too much, as i haven't done this mod yet, althoguh i have a inlet in the garage ready to go on my bros S16, but i was under the impression from when Miles did it he kept the original 6 sensors.

 

Worth a search/asking him :unsure:

Have been chatting to stew about this but you need all the S16 parts swapedd across for referance inc Injectors.

yeah should have said that, im using the original s16 fuel rail and injectors. the only gti-6 parts are the manifold and tb themselves, and the air temp sensor, as that seems to read the same as the s16 one. the idle control valve i connected to the housing of the gti6 idle motor and blanked off the back of that. im tending to think the fault is in some way electrical, as the revs rise/fall to exactly the same point, and its regular as clockwork
