billb a écrit :Nice! Good job guy! I suppose that the spark plug wiring comes from a japanese car?

It's not certain, but the shape looks like different from the original wiring.

Ray-2.0 a écrit :Good Job !

About your spark plugs, i saw NGK C8E on a picture, for my 2000E/16 I've bought CR9EIX and those are better for me.

Thank you for your advice
How do you think CR8EIX for oettinger? CR9EIX will be better?

Hello,

Here's little progress.
I could get to the point where I can start the engine at least.

SebLM a écrit :Great!

It was not easier to deposit it to make this operation ?

The key is how to remove the spongy things thoroughly
The fabric can be spread well in the warm weather and fit easily.

Andy a écrit :Very interesting. !

But I hope that the glue of the double face will hold with the warmth.

It's not certain but I chose the one which can be used in outdoors and durable under high temperature.
Anyway, let's see what will happen

Thank you for your informations

Hello,



Transmission was 2Y

I feel that the combination of EV with 2Y tranny sounds strange a little, but is this normal in France?

Andy a écrit :A so rare Oettinger for only 1000€ ... it's wonderful !!!

I buy you if you want :D :D :D

Which version it is? There was 1800E/16v = 150cv
1800E/16v= 162cv
2000E/16v= 170cv

I read 1800E but can't say which one

Thanks,

I could find only a name plate on dashboard, but do you know how to identify 150CV or 163CV ?

Jim a écrit :Hello Makky, what a rare GTi you got there, and for a bargain !
