SLICKTOP

Greetings gents.....have a question on my TT. anyone know what temp the ecu needs to see from the temp sensor before it will distribute the negative feed to open the boost solenoids? at 70 degrees (on diagnostic) I have no negative, checked a schematic and can see the negative joins both solenoids and a splices off to the ECU first stop is a continuity test in the morn unless one of you fine chaps tell me I need to see 80 degrees before the negative will be present........then il be looking at a dodgy temp sender or a thermostat sticking open. thanks in advance.

ah good to hear.......still many folks using the forum?

Wasnt sure if anyone still used forums. 6 years since i last posted here.............my Slickie has been parked in a council lock up for 5 of those years. Was toying with the idea of selling up so thought id fire in some petrol......... a battery and she wont start, Plugs are F&*ked. Dont think il be selling after all. Time to start emptying the bank into the old lass again ?. Hope you are all well...............if your still here lol.

Factory silver mate :) Cheers guys, still loving the car, she's due another change I'm thinking, loving the TwinZ wide arch kit, if I can ever save the pennies I'd be right on it!!

Turns out the culprit was a mate, I'm his best man soon so what goes around and all that !! Pics as requested :)

Folks it was a mate taking the piss, my phone hasn't stopped all night lol

She purrs like a kitten

But Christ while I'm here how goes it folks, long time since I've been here!! Naaaaah il never let her go, still enjoy her every time I have her out :)

Folks the ad is a wind up sorry........ One of my mates is at it, phone hasn't stopped ringing lol!!!

If I remember right I had paperwork with the car and pretty sure an invoice from jeffs place for the thermostat supplied n fitted, yea I know what it will do and the difference it will make but I'm just wondering why........ Is it to avoid head gasket issues?? Other than to be fitted to a track car which see's hard use I see no other point in it, just wondering which one to put back in lol Oh and cheers all for the comments :) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hiya folks, fitting powder coated water pipes and thought I'd change the thermostat while at it since I was in there, so the originals are aparently rated 76.5 degrees, as was the replacement I bought, but the one that's in the car is rated 62 degrees , another reason for changing it was when driving the car the heaters are pretty shit and temp dips quite a bit until idling then it rises to around the half way mark (normal) making me think it may be ****ed and jammed open, but now seeing the temp rating on it makes sense and visually there's buggerall wrong with it, il test it in hot water and all that but just thought I'd ask you lot what temp thermostats ya use and if anyone's had the likes of this fitted! .......... And a wee pic of my colourfull engine so far. :) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Didn't the heat from the oven melt the plastic parts inside the rocker covers bud?? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi temp paint is shite, besides I wanted to do em a pearly colour :( just have to wip them baffle plates out!! Riveting them back in shouldn't be a prob Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Anybody done this or do ya usually just paint em, got my slicky in a thousand bits and want to freshen up the rocker covers, I'd rather powder coat but there's wee plastic bits on the inside of em which I'm guessing won't agree with the oven!! Any advice appreciated! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
