Happy MGF user

Hi If you still wish to sell the pump it may be something for me as I believe I may need one at some time. If it is still up for 55 pond and you are willing to send it to Norway thru the post.

I have done it from the top but with a air vacuum bottle below the car hose strait down on the floor only way I got it to work as with the vacuum bottle from the air compressor, And I did try may time before buying the vacuum bottle.

Hi to all Engine is running...!!! As I after a along time got a new coil into the system the sparkes became better but not by mush. However the car is running and yes the balancer on the crankshaft is wrong. The gentleman was right about that new is on order from Rimmer Brothers I assume as normal delivery from them to Norway takes 3-4 weeks. I therfore try to find someone in EU to get parts from. Rimmer Brother have supplyed me part for more then 10 years so ... before as UK ws in EU it was about 2 week maks. However I got a Delpin coil it works but the brackets do not fit one So bolt only...More steel work to be done...
So car stopped about 1,5 years ago and Pscan was purchased. I believed I had diven empty but had half full tank the measuring of fuel worked.
I had spark so new fuel pump. and rebuild of fuel pipes to get a pressure test outlet in on the system after the filter. pressure 2,2 to 2,3 bar NOT 3 bar but by clamping the return hose a little I had 4 bar. No start Pscan connected after it came. and it pointed out the crank sensor new sensor purchased and changed No start new battery No start. New plugs No start but after measuring all with a lamp I had one that sometime did and sometimes did not spark new order cap rotors leads all five. Now I do a mistake No new coil and No start. Now direkt ground of engine to battery and direkt 2 ground wires from ECU to battery direkt No start. New coil in place mounted up connected. All spark plugs out and groundet to battry with start cabels my boy crankt over with the new battri charger with start bost and now I had a spark that was stable. but not correct toward the ballaster wheel ok cam cover off Turing the engine all valve and pistons ture correct as I could see. Ok new banser order and next day plugs In boost on and turing the key. And IT Started. turd off and turn the key it started ok garage door open. For air and exhaust out it started. OK butAs I have trued for 1,5 years and AS I had the came cover off it did slell gas so I changed the oil and filter car started. cover on now but still have to bolt back gound wires and air filter etc. I can now not point out the probelem but the last was the coil and the car has had spark all the time.. But now the car runs... Thanks to all with Ideas.. I believed IT as the the new crank sensor or that I had the time belt jump...but after all change out and 3 weeks between orders and delivery of parts it has taken time.

OK I am corrected, that is good info. I will connect up and measure the volt then I can se if (how mush voltage drop) I have on the wiring to the ECU.

Hi please note that I found out that fuse 12 supplies the Pscan thru the OBD. I pulled the fuse and supplied a wire lead from a different car battery to the fuse out toward the OBD contact and ground from the battery to the car chassis. Now as this battri had no voltage drop during cranking of the engine the Psan worked fine. Only thing is that you are then not measuring out battery voltage dure testing as it is reading the stand alone battery.

Hi sorry for late reply I have had to do other thing the MGF did not get first place I did get sparks on all four cylinders but it has smaller then before not bigger. I have ordered a new coil know. But after the new system it is know about 3 weeks to get a part from UK to Norway were there is now a 7 to 10 day delay in custom's. Therefor I tried to get the parts from an EU country. Not so smart the order was ok the money taken then the delivery date changed with 6 weeks. Canceling this order and set a new one well not so good no new part as of now. So my plan is cam cover off spinn engine verify valves closed. Verify TDO on the piston and se if the balancer with its mark toward the crankshaft is correct or not.
Then verify the rotor location toware point for cylinder 1 one the cap.

I plan to put the engine in 1 cynder 10 degree before TDO valves closed further to modify the rotor round inside and ad tap to the rotor bushing and press the modified rotor on the direct location in the cap no 1 cylinder.
Close up the system and try for engine start. This is the plan now but cant be done before the 23 of May.This is As of now. ANY input that I can use to help me out?

Hi can the Camshaft Bush move? The one the rotor is fixed to in the back of the engine MPI. I have be looking at Rimmerbros Part number NJJ0001L and it does look like there is some rubber there. I did long time ago see a layout of how it shall be pressed in. I must find it, does any one know were to find how the drive shall be toward the camshaft I have see it.

Crank shaft sensor reads on fly wheel and rotor is on inlet cam shaft may the rotor aksel move in side the cam shaft?Or can the crank sensor read wrong on the fly wheel? The pully in front will that effect this? Ps yes on the plastic marks for timing verifying with blink lamp but for the driving of the engine controls?

Hi during the timing verifying that i did. I did verify down on the pistons with 2 skue divers same length all four cylinders same height and marking on the crankshaft pulley and the camshaft points did line up. I will verify on valves.
