    Having had a new Mk 5 R32 with a non resonated Milltek exhaust back in 2009, I think your engine sounds good to me. These are fantastic cars, & seeing you work on this good looking example brings back fond memories.
    I was very surprised at the cost of the fuel injectors, but at least the two you bought sorted out the problem.
    Looking forward to the next instalment of this 'restoration ' & keep up the good work! 👍🔥👍

    Literally nothing wrong with that motor, sounds pretty sweet, it’s had a leaking injector probably for god knows how long , all adaptions , STFT aswell as LTFT are probably a mess hence why started a little rough and levelled out. Reset adaptions and go for a good old blast, Job done 👌🏻

    The only thing I know about compression was when my V8 A6 seemingly had none, or little, after months on a ramp, it needed a little oil down each bore to seal them up, or something.

  • @paulwells4203
    @paulwells4203 Před rokem

    Subscribed, enjoyable video. When I saw fluid gushing out of cylinders 5 and 6 I thought it was coolant (so maybe bad head gasket) but you obviously could smell that it was fuel so went in the correct direction to diagnose the problem. Will wait for second part. VR6s sound great with a loud exhaust, maybe you want to look into that lol.

    Great result, wish i’d bought that if it was cheap, these are doing good money.
    Don’t normally buy cars with Scottish registration plates as it generally means rust but that looks alright, would be worth removing the wheel arch liners and cleaning them out behind as these are common for wings rusting, even if they haven’t been up in Scotland. Well done! 👍

    • @interceptor-ss8kb
      @interceptor-ss8kb Před rokem

      Yeah I got burned on a Scottish car pulled away the arch liners on the rear and it was hiding all sorts of serious rot was only a 9 year old Vw scirocco aswell but well beyond economical repair as we looked in different parts we discovered more and more rust ended up breaking it the engine and gearbox became the most valuable parts
