  3. Yes but the fuel rail kits that I have looked at do not mention having to purchase a different fuel regualtor, nor do they supply one with a 'kit', that is why I asked the question. And yes, ECU is the next thing I am going to do, I was just interested in where the regulator went. But thanks for your answers anyway. I will return to this once the ECU is installed.
  4. I am upgrading the car bit by bit and my next step is installing larger injectors, when I have upgraded the ECU. I have rebuilt the engine to take more power, so this is just part of a long transformation. The fuel rail has an in and an out on it, whereas my standard fuel rail has an in and a fuel pressure regulator, attached to the fuel return, which I presume that I will need whatever fuel rail I put on. I am not changing it now, I was just wondering what you are supposed to do with the fuel regulator.
  5. Hi all, does anyone know of a link for instructions to fit an aftermarket delivery pipe fuel rail? Or instructions of what to do with the fuel return valve,as the rest is fairly obvious. Cheers.. Fil
  6. I must say, that it is possible that I am not getting enough fuel, because I did put a problem down to the last lot of coil packs being faulty, where there are white lines appearing around the ground electrodes on two or three of the other five plugs. I haven't had that problem sine I changed my coil packs though.
  7. I think that from what I have read from the earlier link that was given to me in this thread, that I have either Pre-ignition or detonation problem with the No.6 chamber, rather than a fuel problem, as all other chambers are looking fine, by referring to the condidtion of the plugs, but I will check all avenues before trying to start her up again. And as you also say, that my WideBand meter must be way out of calibration. I think that I need to get the head off and have a good look (and cry) and also get the mapping checked. Thanks for all your help Tricky Ricky and others.
  8. Ok Tricky Ricky, once I have everything back to 'normal' I will recalibrate it. Do you think that my measurements are way off?
  9. Never changed it. I have thought about it before, but every where I have read that I didn't need to. Where do I look to see if it is a standard ECU?
  10. No, I am not able to do anything on this until the weekend, as I have a poorly Jeep that really needs full attention at the mo, because my better half is driving my spare car, so I haven't got one. I didn't know that the WBand required calibrating at any time, other than when I first put it in. I had to measure tha clean air just before I put it into the exhaust hole, so that it had something to measure. There was no mention of having to recalibrate in the instructions. It is a 'Innovate' wide band meter.
  11. Regarding the above 4, yes, idling at 21ish, initially 11 when I start to accelarte and it is around 14 whilst I am accelarting, definately. Can't reprove that, as it is not running now, but thast was correct. What does that tell you mellonman / Gpro? Unless it was mapped when I first got it 13 yrs ago, then I don't know if has been mapped. It is a 93 TT Yes, the last thread I fixed with new coil packs and new plugs.
  12. Yeah, already got a wide band lambda gauge Chris, but i haven't learnt how to read it properly yet. It idles at 21.5 and drops to 11 initially then moves up to 14ish while accelarating. I am also able to plug in to my laptop and look at a graph of what has been happening. I will do the necessary with the 6th piston, because when I was looking with the bore scope, I saw a weird reflection from the lights that I thought was just a reflection of the lights in the oil, but now thinking about it, it could well have been a hole in the top of the piston. Bu**er !! Head off then ! With regard to the flow test, my next stage was to upgrade the fuel system anyway.
  13. Thanks for the link Tricky Ricky, that is very intersting. so just sticking on parts to make me go faster, wasn't a very good idea in the long run then.
  14. Ok thanks again. It looks like I will be taking the head off for a proper look. I have blown my turbo's so i will be doing that at the same time. What is the det?
  15. Thanks mellonman, I have looked down at the piston, but can't see anything untoward. What do you mean by a bad injector 6 cylinder. Do you mean a bad injector in No. 6 cylinder?
  16. Hi all, looks like I still have a problem with my No. 6 cylinder. I have melted another plug in the same hole that the ground electrode burnt off earlier on in the year. All other cylinders are normal, so does anyone have any idea why this particular cylinder is melting my plugs?
