Thanks for the link... that seemed to sort out the N75 Valve. But still need to figure out the N18 Valve and other hoses... The previous engine was from a Passat, no idea what code as it was as it had been taken off... could have been an AFN but cannot be 100% sure. Now has a 1Z from a mk3 1996 Golf...

nobody knows...?

http://i1152.photobucket.com/albums/p490/ChrisBorge/VacuumSetuptest.jpg Trying to figure out what the correct setup for the vacuum lines are... and after hours of trying to search online I've come up with this setup (digram above). Is this the correct way? It used to have an AFN before someone inst...

For those who helped... big thanks !... You might alao want to know that it's the ecu causing all of this.... Would anyone know if I can use another Mk3 golf 1z ecu with a different part number than the one I have? At the moment the part number is 028 906 021 B I am looking for another ecu so if any...

I posted some info about the brake and clutch switches... earlier on... it has 3 squared images, did you have a look at this ewen?
What do you think about this setup?

Hi Andy, thanks for ur comments... so you think that the software on the ECU is not compatible with this 1Z engine setup...? and that is why it is not functioning properly. If so (and it's not that I am doubting you), how come it's been driving fine before. Have been using the van as it is for a few...

Think I'm the one loosing the plot over here :shock: , syncro... lol Van was working fine, perhaps not as good as it should, but at least it moved, after the 1Z was installed by a mechanic (no idea what he did, but it seemed to have done the job)... Until all this started to happen, wish it didn't.....

One other thing to add to the "to do list"... found this... check it out.... http://i1152.photobucket.com/albums/p490/ChrisBorge/DSCN0454.jpg Need to fix this issue as I DO NOT want a burning camper... :pimp Where the 103 relay sits on is mostly burnt and melted, there are a few cables tha...

Had a look at things... I think that the clutch pedal one was originally like that... I am not 100% sure. http://i1152.photobucket.com/albums/p490/ChrisBorge/brakeampclutchswitchwiring.jpg For the brake one... the brown cable has been earthed. The yellow/white is connected to a relay and has 3 other...

This only gets me thinking about previous things that have been done to it and might have had an effect on this... This is what I have by the pedals... Don't know what the cowling means... but I guess its the plastic bit covering the column... if something else let me know :) http://i1152.photobucke...

The brake and clutch switches, are those the ones by the pedals? or are they the light switches? Is the brake switch inside the dash by the steering wheel... cause there was a leak around there a while ago and I had no idea where it came from... I opened the fuse box once and found it was covered by...

yep exactly the same... same part number, was sent from Germany as it's a LHD and was not cheap.

We checked today and the same happens when you pull the throttle cable on it.

Thanks ewen... the potentiometer is brand new... that was the last thing I changed thinking that could be the problem, will check the connections

These are the errors that the diagnostics came up with... 00553 Mass Air Flow Sensor (G70) - sporadic - Short circuit to positive 00539 Fuel Temperature Sensor (G81) - static - Open/short circuit to positive 00777 Accelerator Position Sensor (G79) - static - implausible signal 00741 Pedal Monitoring...

Cool... will try these things out.. having a friend with diagnostics equipment coming soon, so we'll check it out.
Will also change the configuration of the tubes and see what happens... thank a lot guys.
Will keep you posted on the progress.
