I put some motor oil in the #3 sniffer tube and it was indeed clogged. I ran a piece of wire clothes hanger down it and it opened right up. There...
I'll try that tomorrow with some compressed air. I might try a little 3 in 1 oil overnite. If it drains then it should be open and I am back to...
There is nothing at all at the #3 sniffer tube. I used a piece of vacuum hose from the tube to my ear and there was no air movement at all. All...
What kind of high tension wires are those? I like the look of the right angle boots better than the straight ones on my car.
I should have mentioned in the previous post that the spark is good to all the cylinders. I spent the last two weekends making sure of that. Also,...
I have been working some time on tracking down a misfire on the right (front) bank. I finally got the bright idea of checking the four little...
That was what I needed. You are right about getting the diagrams. Does it matter what direction the leads are? In other words, is there a...
I have a 1981 308 GTSi. I am rebuilding my wiring harness, and I failed to not the color pairs that go to each of the three flywheel sensors....
Thanks for Info. I knew that the original is tha SEN 8F and that the SEN 8D is commonly substituted. The 8D is available from UK suppliers. I...
I removed my flywheel position sensors to try and find the cause of a right bank misfire. The left bank sensor is marked "SEN 8F" but the right...
Thanks for all the replies. It actually does look just like St. Elmo's. I'll try changine the wires out with an older set I have lying around...
So, do you think this effect is related to the misfire I seem to be experiencing, or should I look elsewhere?
I am still trying to figure out the rough idle in my 308 GTSi. Last night I did the dark garage test. What I saw amazed me. There seemed to be...
I adjusted the air/fuel mixture richer as you said. Idle did sound smoother. I took the car in for another test. 2500 RPM HC: 212 CO: 5.6...
I didn't know there was an idle adjustment on a K-Jet system. Can you tell me how to do it, or are there instructions somewhere I can look them up?
Thanks for the suggestion. I can add cats in the future if I need to. Like I said in the post, I know of other properly running 308s that pass...
I brought my 308 GTSi in for emissions testing today. All the smog equipment is deleted, so I knew it would be tough. I changed the plugs and...
Do you have a model number for a high output alternator that is a direct replacement on a 308? Thanks.
I have exactly the same problem with my '81 GTSi. I have tried all the same fixes suggested here. Someone once told me that the digiplexs on this...
Thanks for the photo. That was just what I needed. I think I will try running through the tunnel along the battery cable to the front, then down...
