The 2.0's are solid, the 1.8T seems to have a tendency of vomiting all over itself and suffocating to death.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention. Using 87 octane. Direct Injection FTMFW!!!

Biscuit, ive been thinking about your problem.

Replace the coolant temp sensor anyway, because if you havent already, you will need to in the future anyway. I dont think thats whats causing your hot-start problem.

I think your fuel pump relay is taking a ----. Its the big black relay that has "409" stamped in the top. Pull it out, and look at the big copper spade contacts. They should be a copperish color, if they are dark brown or look like they have been ------- hot, I can almost promise thats the problem.

Thats why I would NEVER buy a vw. :P

Aw come'on now. Honda has never had main relay problems? :P

Re: VR6 Piece of Shit
 

That takes literally 2 minutes to change.

Re: VR6 Piece of Shit
 

jumped timing?

Re: VR6 Piece of Shit
 

I've been waiting for this weekend to start working on it. I pulled the relay tonight and it doesn't look too good.

I'll make sure to replace this first.

Re: VR6 Piece of Shit
 

Timing is fine. How is that transmission working for you?

Re: VR6 Piece of Shit
 

it's working like a pimp. no seriously thanks for the deal make the whole thing come together nicely. so far the car hauls pretty good for just a .42 .48 turbo. in the process of geting a .60 .63. you know anybody with one? also do you have the rear struts and springs off that teg? they in good shape?
