Club 80-90 Forums

I have possibly got access to a golf mk4 1.9 AHF engine complete in the car (cars gearbox has gone) and im after a new engine for my T25 so was thinking on combining the two... Electrically im confident, I have an awsome auto-electrician working for me and im pretty handy myself so am comfortable wi...

as the title says really, im after a taller 4th so i can cruise a bit better.... anyone know the procedure? Im hoping its a simple thing, end plate off e.t.c.

Im geting fed up of screaming at 70mph...

cheers

Im looking at gettiong a set of -70 springs but not suyre how low they will actually take me... Now before we start i know how lowering works, i should do shocks and the lower the rougher but unfortuantly im not loaded so cant afford a full set and i know what to expect from low vehicles as i have a...

Haven't heard of them personally but a tip from me is to look at the 1.9 AAZ route.

I have just done a conversion a few weeks ago and its not that difficult... takes a few days but worth it as the extra torque really does help...

Seat is fixed but honestly it works very well, i found it comfy drivin 3-4hrs non-stop and im 6'3", the missus could drive at 5'5"...

I have made a handbrake extension so that you can still use it. I couldnt get over how perfectly it fitted and how comfy it was...

right, my vacume unit is fubar'd so i need to retard my ignition.

It should by 5deg @ 900 revs but anyone know what i should retard it to until i get a new unit??

Cheers

this is the thing, on my old engine it was fine, if anything it pulled very well (had 100mph indicated in a littler T25 race)

On the new engine my van runs like a bag o "pooh"!!

Am thinking this could be part of the problem!

Forgot to mention that this seat also folds down flat onto itself so is ideal if you dont have a bulkhead...

And it 'may' be up for sale, i have already made brackets e.t.c.... i have gone for a walkthrough now....

Why not get a different style of bench seat.... I used a transit middle seat and adapted it, it fits perfect, has armrests for all seats and is comfy as you like... Also the back is mounted to the base so you simply screw it into the seat boxes and thats it, all secure!! http://photos-b.ll.facebook....

The green one runs std wheels and is slammed. I love the look, its cool and the 15's help with a low stance...

Ever since i have owned my T25 (1.9DG) i have noticed the two vacume pipes on the dizzy were disconnected and blanked off.

Whats the score with these? Is it better to run them connected and let the timing adjust or were they set up like that as standard for a reason??

Cheers

I ground my wheels out myself using a grinding stone on a drill...

Took me a few hours but not really difficult...


Longer studs are a must tho!

I got me an '87 1.9DG van and have recently had a new engine fitted. I had a load of running issues and so got my carb refurbed and had to have a smaller idle jet fitted. Now i have a problem with running on choke (feels like it misfires and very rough) and also flat spots once its warm. I have got ...

Im after a decent pipe for my 1.9DG engine.

I currently have a modified Yamaha R1 exhaust on the back but am worried this sint giving me the right amount of back pressure so i wanna go for a pukka one... just cant find anyone who sells them!!

Its a late 1.9 DG
