1. Status as of juli 2018 - idling just fine.

• Fuel

• Pressure OK. Pump runs, 3 bar read fromn gauge

• Ignition

• Sparks fine, stobed, cam wheel and crank. on the money.

• Batt low while cranking, as low as 8.8V,

• VEMS report share:

• http://vems.hu/vemstune/sharingcenter/reports.php?cmd=view&key=v4prNn

1. Status as of 10. sep 2018

Strugled with to hot headers. Spent a lot of time with ign timing, and air/vacuum leak, but found out (with help from KRB) that it could be the cam timing. Replaced the variable cam wheel, with stock, and problem solved. (Need to learn more about cam/valve timing). Ready to be mapped. :)
