Jurgen-Jm-Imports Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Think this could be a more cost effective way in the long run as not much point in having to buy both. How much do a set retail at mate and where's the best place to get them? you can get them on ebay fairly cheap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duffman Posted January 6, 2009 Author Share Posted January 6, 2009 you can get them on ebay fairly cheap was reading up on a thread there and it was stated Stock TT NGK - BCPR6EP-11 - gap is already 1.1mm at the "-11" signifies they should be set to this already. NGK - BKR6E (2756) - gap 1.1mm NGK Iridium - BKR6EIX-11 (3764) - gap is already 1.1mm at the "-11" signifies they should be set to this already. Denso Platinum - PK20R11 - gap 1.1mm Denso Iridium - IK20 - leave gap alone TT @ upto 1bar NGK - BCPR7ES (3330) - gap 0.9mm NGK - BKR7E (6097) - gap 0.9mm NGK - Iridium - BKR6EIX or BKR7EIX - leave gap alone Denso Platinum - PK20R11 - gap 0.8mm Denso Iridium - IK22 - leave gap alone TT/hybrids @ upto 1.3bar NGK - BCPR7ES (3330) - gap 0.7mm NGK - BKR7E (6097) - gap 0.7mm NGK - BKR8E - gap to 0.7mm NGK - BCPR8ES (3330) - gap 0.7mm NGK Iridium - BKR7EIX - leave gap alone NGK Iridium - BKR8EIX - leave gap alone Denso Platinum - PK20R8 - gap 0.7mm Denso Iridium - IK22 - leave gap alone Denso Iridium - IK24 - leave gap alone Got a few mods waiting to be fitted that will take it to BPU at 1.2bar(one of which was BCC ). There are so many to choose from what ones would be best for me? i.e. work fine now & when I have my mods fitted and BPU? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duffman Posted January 12, 2009 Author Share Posted January 12, 2009 bought the plugs last week they should be arriving today at some point if i change the plugs will this solve the problem....surely if it a problem with it running too lean then the plugs will just get damaged again?

Duffman Posted January 12, 2009 Author Share Posted January 12, 2009 I would bet you've fouled up the plugs by running the motor mad rich, I'd put another set of plugs in it, unless you have a proper industrial plug cleaning machine to blast the ones in it now. Count up the hours and hassle, and tell me honestly that 25 quid spent having someone else fit it now seems expensive bought the plugs last week they should be arriving today at some point if i change the plugs will this solve the problem....surely if it a problem with it running too lean then the plugs will just get damaged again?

Duffman Posted January 13, 2009 Author Share Posted January 13, 2009 yes it will solve the problem mate So just the plugs fitted then thats it...if its starting then its sorted? What is to stop it happening again with these new plugs....as these weren'tt he problem in the first place. Don't mean to go on....but i'm finding it hard to get my head round how it won't just fire loads of fuel in again and ruin the plugs.

Duffman Posted January 19, 2009 Author Share Posted January 19, 2009 how did you get on ??????????????? Fitted the plugs yesterday the old ones were absolutely soaking...its fired up and i held the revs at about 1500rpm to burn off some of the fuel. It was idling ok when it was warmed up. Went back out a few hours later and it started up but then just died....would run if i kept my foot on accelerator. Think it may be something else thats the problem....anyone any suggestions?

Chris Wilson Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Take it to a professional, I had a car in recently the owner had spent over 500 quid on, trying "things" Diagnosed inside 10 minutes, total bill 100 quid. If you don't have the gear to find why it's overfuelling you will be in the same boat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't have the gear to find why it's overfuelling you will be in the same boat. So just basically someone with diagnostic machine Chris? Do you reckon it's overfuelling then? How come it will idle ok when it has been revved for a bit thats what I don't understand? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Any garage competent with fairly modern FI systems should be able to fix it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duffman Posted January 19, 2009 Author Share Posted January 19, 2009 Any garage competent with fairly modern FI systems should be able to fix it. FI systems....is this a diagnostic machine mate? Phoned a garage before and was told that they wouldn't be able to plug it in as it was too old...it's a 93 j-spec TT. Should this cause a problem? Can anyone recommend a garage in scotland they know which is good at this kind of stuff. I'm in ayrshire (30 miles from glasgow) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
