Computer hosed? FYI - I don't know sh!t about fixing cars, just a shot in the dark.

edit: ooo, a page to pwn. Taking the easy road and quoting previous post by a new R owner (jonkerns). His driveway now:

It depends on what you're definition of cheap is

1.) coils from raceland are $360 last time I check for my car
2.) go to menards or farm and fleet and load your trunk with bags of sand around $50 I would guess

**clarkson** · 02-01-2012 08:21 PM

Rechecked timing and unplugged MAF. Also changed cam position sensor. Sill no luck. Plugged MAF back in and still no luck. Getting frustrated... Also added another 5 gallons of gas just in case it was to low. Anybody have an idea?

@ Tyler, does it backfire or anything at all like that when it's cranking?

While this is really funny, I asked for help from the guys...

And for the record, affordable and cheap are not to same thing in the auto parts world.

**clarkson** · 02-01-2012 08:36 PM

occasionally it sounds like intake pop but i could be hearing things

So you're saying you have spark correct? And you've done a compression check. Is it getting fuel? Make sure the fuel pump is working. Jump the battery to the fuse for the pump and listen for the pump.

**keegers** · 02-01-2012 08:39 PM

its car care day for this guy
spark plugs
fresh oil and filter
sea foam injector cleaner

it got pretty expensive, wasnt planning on spending $100+ today
my car better not break down like erics and tylers jetta

**clarkson** · 02-01-2012 08:45 PM

I can hear the pump when I turn the key the first time but if I turn the key off and back on it does not kick on (idk if that wrong or working correctly) but i can hear it when trying to start the car. Im getting around 38psi of pressure when i "t" in my fuel pressure gauge at the end of the fuel rail. I pulled the coil pack off the plug removed the plug and inserted it into the end of the coil pack and set that by the cowl. i then got in the car and cranked the key and it sparks at the plug. i set up all four coil and plugs the same way and they all spark seamingly in proper firing order but i could be wrong

also when i pull the plugs they are soaked and the tops of the pistons are wet

I still think its related to you crank position sensor down by the oil cooler.. You need to find out what pins on the ecu are for the sensor and ohm them out to make sure that you have continuity down the whole wire path to make sure you don't have any more breaks...

Did you actually replace the sensor or how did you test it????

**clarkson** · 02-01-2012 09:07 PM

New sensor... purchased last night fronm advance auto parts

**One-Eight GTI** · 02-01-2012 09:07 PM

But that was the sensor that had a broken wire correct???

**clarkson** · 02-01-2012 09:10 PM

Correct... the sensor side of the connector had a probobly 2mm cut into the insulate around the 3 wires and one wire was cut in half

**One-Eight GTI** · 02-01-2012 09:14 PM

Maybe run through all the fuses and make sure there good, maybe the wire that was rubbed threw grounded the circuit out or something?????

It sounds like you have all your bases covered as far as checks to do, and you already replaced alot of parts so I don't know what it could be... I'll keep thinking but if its possible to find the pin #'s and ohm stuff out that would be a good idea

**clarkson** · 02-01-2012 09:17 PM

Checked all fuses last night and i agree with you in the "pin out" ohm tests. I just wish i had a starting place to start checking

**One-Eight GTI** · 02-01-2012 09:18 PM

Does your TACH move when you crank the car over???

FK streetline are pretty nice, they run like 450 maybe a little more. They can go super low and I personally haven't had any issues with mine and I have had them on for almost a year.

Yes

**One-Eight GTI** · 02-01-2012 09:21 PM

What engine code are you, I have my bently handy

**clarkson** · 02-01-2012 09:25 PM

aww and if it helps my cell number is 7158675309 and it will stay that way for about 5 min

**uNLeaSHeD.** · 02-01-2012 09:27 PM

Spooner also check the Midwest classified I notice some guy was selling fks and koni

**One-Eight GTI** · 02-01-2012 09:30 PM

ok well there are 3 wires... brown white and black... remove the smaller of the two connectors on the ECU and that is your engine bay side... Find pin 82 which is white and ohm from that wire to the white wire on the connector feeding the CPS.... Then pin 90 is the brown wire do the same... then put ohm meter on theblack wire at the end of connector and go to ground, you should have cont
