well first off, hey guys. hehe, well yeah ehm the first pic is about some vaccuum lines i would like to know where they go (A and B), can i attach a mechanical boost sensor to A, where do i put B?...second pic are fuel lines to the engine yellow coming from the fuel filter and blue coming from somewhere else, i just wanted to know if i had these plugged in to the right places, third pic is final engine pic, fourth pic is i dunno some weird coolant like holder in the corner of the car passenger's side.

now, i put the battery in the car to see if the engine would crank, alas it didnt, maybe the starter died? everything else inside the car works, lights, windshield wipers, etc. except that the engine wont crank...any known causes?

 

4th Pic is the cold assist start i believe. And why are your belts soo loose?

 

haha cause i lost the little bracket that holds the alternator up, well actually i just have to look for it the spare car. btw, i only have one belt, i dont have an air pump nor a/c.

 

the bottle is the cold start assist, which i don't think you need in Panama. I didn't in Texas or in Florida. The two hoses with, the blue and yellow circles are the fuel lines, the blue one returns back to the fuel tank.

 

With the first pic, the nipple there that comes from the compressor portion of the turbo should go directly to the wastegate. Thats how it is on an S4 turbo, that turbo looks a little bit different becuase I don't see the little metal vacuum pipe that goes around the front of the turbo, like with the S4. If that little pipe was bolted to it, then it would be almost impossible to mistake where the line in pic 1 goes to. In your picture, it does not hook up there, it hooks up to the wastegate actuator, wich you can see just below in the picture, it is silver.

 

yeah i got that but my wastegate was already vaccumed elsewhere. i pulled the engine turbo and all, cept for intercooler and uim. thats why i was wondering if i could put a boost gauge there....how about B? where does that go?

 

B is for the check valve that goes into the TID.
-Cliff

 

yeah that check valve got killed. hehe i took it out and blocked it off on the TID. anywhere else i could put it. thanks a lot guys you are really helping me out a lot...suggestions?

 

could it be because of not having the ecu plugged in? i would think that it would still turn over though.

 

dont bother hooking B up you dont need it
and put the wastegate hooked back up to A
hook up your boost gauge to something else
4th is the cold start, you dont need it rip it out and cap it off

 

and for the engine cranking theres a switch on top of the clutch pedal that lets the ECU know when the clutch is fully down. Sometimes the connection there goes bad.. check that

 

cool thanks bcty, but now my main problem is it not turning over anyone know why?

 

anyone?

 

is it turning over and not starting up? or is it just not turning over?

 

its just not turning over, i don't have the ecu in yet, but it should still turn over right?

 

I seem to recall a ground wire that attaches to one of the transmission bolts near the starter that needs to be connected in order for the starter to operate. You might check that...

 

The fuel line you circled in blue is the return to the gas tank.

 

thanks peeps, so i do need the ecu in order to fire the engine up or for it atleast to crank right?
