Blown engine :-(

Hey yakuza.

I’m sat with the new dizzy cap and rotor. I’m not quite seeing what I I need to do… any clues are welcome!

Bit of progress on the GTi motor. I’m taking the belted drives from the GTi and its alternator. 
I’ve got the plumbing from the Sami. 

Work is in progress to create an adapter plate to go from GTi to Sami spec on the manifold. 

The challenge has come with the wiring loom being  for a different generation of GTI. 

So after some head scratching I’ve decided to go a spot on the nuclear side. I’ve ordered a link atom x standalone for ECU and part harness….

This I’m assured by my friends at JJM with the four branch and a 2” performance exhaust should be good for 120bhp… it’s also capable of running open loop boost should a need for a supercharger arise. 

Things have got out of hand. Here is the evidence.

 

Well it was a busy day at the track for Bijouspud in the micro martini Honda cadet kart. Not the easiest thing to set up and very sensitive to adjustment. We learned a lot in a days testing though. 

A few bits arrived for tommorows play tho. 

I introduce the speed euphonium and a fan belt. 
We’ve also got a swift electric fan to replace the mechanical one. Will be driven from the ECU… 



 

 

Bit of progress, the euphonium adapter plate has started to come together. Swapped the cam
covers over and then came inside. 

A hungover man kept losing the tools. Most inconsiderate. 

Pictures where you asked about the dizzy cap did not show here.
Did they fit?

I think the dizzy problem is solved in a new way with the standalone ECU. The dizzy remains as a cam/ crank sensor. But the sparks are fired from the ECU to a set of jimny coil on plug pencil coils…

Will 3d print a new cover for the dizzy with no leads needed
