CAS Maybe?

Hi There, After spending a couple of ours unplugging most of the electrcial connectors I could find, I still have no luck. I did manage to get the diagnostic port to flick me up a code on a small 12v light that I had. It was blinking 2. From what I can see that means it could be the Crank Angle Sens...

Hi Slydit, Thanks for you suggestions. With regard to the injectors the power stayed +12V on both pins even when cranking. We put a "noid" light in place of the injector, and it did not flash when cranking. I will check the earths that you suggested, and verify that they are all OK. I will need to g...

Hi There, I fogot to add that I have put a noid light on, that was how I was able to find out that the injectors were not firing. I will also add that I changed the fuel filter yesterday, as I thought that might be restricting the fuel flow. I can hear and feel the fuel pump running and when I use a...

Which Spark Plugs for a 1992 NA

Hi There, I figure that it is about time to replace the spark plugs, but do not know which brand or model to use. I do not even know what the stock ones are for it, and figure that someone might be able to tell me what these are, or if there is a better after market / upgrade option. I was also wond...

Hi John, We had the same issue and solved it in a similar manner. We cleared out all the leaves/dust etc from the top of the drain, then used a drink bottle to put a small amount of water down it. We then worked from the other end, the underside of the car, and pushed a piece of lacing wire, the rea...

Upgrade Complete

Hi All, Just thought that I would give you an update on what I actually did. I decided to upgrade the drivers side light that failed with a semi-sealed beam with a replacable H4 bulb. I did not use a Hella one, I got a Wagner relector unit that cost about $35 and a Narva H4 +50% bulb that cost about...
