dropped the gsi off today for mot tomorrow so fingers crossed.

front panel painted

inner wing

another quick update on my cavii sri resto.between last year and getting the gsi (plus shite scottish weather) iv not had much time for the old girl but made a start on her the other day.hopefully weather will get better and ill get more done.

the 4x4 light is sometimes off and sometimes on.
when the light is on my windows dont work and when the light is off they do

just a quick update.
the misfire was down to the dizzy.got replacement and all is well.

got another question tho

what does this unit do.it seems to be power steering related
and where can i get a replacement from coz mine is leaking.

if i unplug the hall effect plug on my dizzy while the engine is running what will happen?

iv been told that aswell as the distributor my car has an electronic dizzy somewhere.also my rad fan has been bridged and is running all the time.could this cause a misfire?

not sure if mine needs a cat or not.i hope not.lol
iv still not sorted the miss yet.
i tried a mass airflow meter from my pals and unplugged the lambda but still the same.was worse when i unplugged the lambda.
had my mate check the fuel preasure and he says its ok.

can it be the dizzy itself?

hey.just like to say a big thank you to everyone for answering my questions but i have another one for you.iv noticed my car doesnt have a catalyst.can anyone tell me the month/year that you need a cat.mine is a 1992 on a k.thanks for your help i really appreciate it.

sorry.yeah it does have a lambda.i just found it.lol

it dont think it has a lambda as i couldnt find it.iv just had a afm dropped off so im gona try that tomoro.

hey folks thats
plugs
leads
rotor arm
dizzy cap
engine temp sens
crank sens
fuel filter
tps

all been changed.it seems to miss more when it warms up.

where do i go next.
i think the oil cooler mite be leaking oil into the water.would this cause a misfire?

thanks.ill have a look at that later.but too cold outside for fixing cars.lol

thanks for the help ill go have a look.my mates gona drop me off a crank sensor and tps later so will try them too.

thank god i have u guys to ask questions to.lol.am i right in thinking that the fuel filter/pump is located on the n/s/r of the car next to the chassis leg.

what does tps mean?

sorry,i meant crankshaft sensor.lol

hi.just another quick update.iv just changed the dizzy cap/leads/rotor arm also stuck £20 of fuel in and still no joy.still missing under load.do you think a fuel filter is in order as car sat for 6 years.it idles fine and drives.its only when you put the foot down thai is misses.can it be a cam sha...

yeah am selling it but needs to run right.iv only tried plugs so far.im gona try leads/cap/rotor arm tomoro.just wondered if u guys thought it might be something else.im not too clued up on the redtop engine.lol

hi
can anyone help me please.iv just bought a gsi 4x4.it idles fine bit misfires under load.the car was garaged for 6 years until recently
iv changed the plugs but this didnt help
its a 2 lirte redtop sfi

please help.its pisxing me off now
thanks

saw it in total vauxhall,stunning car mate.

i was hoping the inner wings and slam panel would be the same.i was only asking coz i got offered a calibra for £200.didnt know if it was worth buying or not

can anyone tell me how hard it would be to fit a calibra front end to my cavalier.quite fancy doing this
