Hey guys,
Have not been around for a while. I initially had a 924 with a stuck fuel dizzy which I fixed and it was running well for a while. Then a few weeks ago it died and I could not work out why. ...

90% of brake squeaking I come accross is either from parts not greased correctly or pads not chamfered correctly. 9% is a problem in the calipers and the final 1% is just compatibility between pads n ...

Even if the crankcase breather is hooked up correctly I would give it a good clean (pipes too). Whilst I am not very familiar with this car yet, it is common that excess crankcase pressure from a bloc ...

The FAG part numbers are the correct bearings they are tapered so check they are facing the correct way, also check your new parts are correctly supplied. Not 100% sure what is too big or too small bu ...

From memory (I have seen a few Bosch boxes while looking for my ignition parts) they are not expensive. There are also other options of which MSD seems a bit like overkill on a road car. But do some r ...

just measured mine on a brand new lead and got 1.2k ohms, Top Gun leads, spiral core 7mm.

This is what I did, mine is more like a amp neg cable. As long as it is shielded and at least as thick or even better thicker than what was there.

the rotor is the only stand out from what I can see. Also change that un-shielded earth wire off the coil bracket, I used a shielded thicker car stereo earth and it did wonders for my electrics.

How much voltage should I have at the coil? Last time I measured around 6.5 vdc but that seems like not enough with the amount of resistance at the cap, rotor, and plug wires

I have been having a ...

I jacked up the car and did the test. Here is the video of the results. Looks like they are both bad but could the inners just be loose?

I think I may have to remove the boot to actually find out. ...

resistor wire is so the coil does not get the full battery voltage and create a mega spark that burns everything out. Modern coils are internally resisted and as such dont need it, if you took out the ...

thanks guys, I may need to take you up on that offer muz.

Advanced a bit from where I was the other day. A little investigation on the net showed that the module in my dizzy is a Hotspark ignition ...

Ok, so I go to investigate spark a little further. I was made aware that this may not be as reliable as I had thought when I was compression testing and noticed that my plug leads were not giving a co ...

The twisting you're showing is completely normal, it is a ball & socket design (just like your shoulder). However, it looks at the beginning of the video you are able to get some in/out, side to s ...

OK, thanks for that. sorry no pics car was wearing me out and I did not want to look at it for a few days.

Got a screw in compression tester from work today and found out lots of stuff.
