Soz bro, I only just noticed your question.. 3 years later.. The efi is off the 1st gen HB cosmo 2000egi, 80-81 I think, then they changed to the fe. Turns the engine in to a totally different beast with the efi.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoeddynz Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 Your tps woes... I've never needed to open one up but if it's a standard 3 wire jobby then I'm having a guess that they are just a potentiameter inside? If so then could it possibly just be a case of swapping the left and right wire so it works in reverse? But for all I know they might contain far more magic inside then that and us mere mortals should not be messing with them... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I do have one already that I got last time I could have used, it's preloaded in the wrong direction but like you say they're pretty simple and the link just needs to see the variation from open to shut so I should have worked.. The one I got has no preload on it, no matter as I had to mount them the same anyway.. 20 minutes ago, sheepers said: Ive said it before and I'll say it again, I fucking live this car.

Bling Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Maybe whip out the injectors and get them cleaned while you're on holiday? @RUNAMUCK got some done recently so might know a good place. Might not be injectors, but if they've sat for ages a clean won't hurt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yetchh Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 Yeah it's defo vapour lock at the pump, hooked the feed to the return line and let it run for a couple of minutes. Pump stayed nice and cool but as soon as I plumbed it all back up and ran the car the pump got almost too hot to hold and it started cavitating. Looks like I need a new regulator..
