she is going good now :)
The battery light was on because i forgot to put the altenator belt on (idiot!!!)
And i have set the timing and she is pulling strong now !
Speedo and rev counter now working aswell
:) :) :)
Got this running now
I changed the coil and it started straight away
but im still having a few wee problems
the car is running rough, it is like it is hitting a limiter and not revving very high when moving
It revs freely when stationary
I have no CEL`s so i don't think it is in limp mode...
I have just noticed that when i switch my IGN on the main relay is clicking away (quite fast)
I have just tried another relay (known to work) and it is the same
I have read that this can be due to grounds but mine are all good
anyone got any ideas ?
the leads are put back in the correct order
1-3-4-2
The car is a EK3 (uk) 1997 and the engine is from a MB6 (uk same engine as b18c1)
and i have checked all the connectors and they are all correct
cheers for your help though !
Just done a compression test the results are
No. 1 = 202psi
No. 2 = 208psi
No. 3 = 202psi

Well if its not to do with having oil put in the bores for transport or from the engine just sitting about for god knows how long
Im thinking its maybe you valve stem seals
I am having the same problem with my y8
Blue smoke in high revs and using oil
I did a compression test and it was fine
