here is a link to a shared album let me know any questions

It has been a long exciting road, but time has come to part ways with my 200. I havent put all that many miles on it, im guessing 3k tops. I used it for one summer and then pulled the motor to re-ring, was going to have the head rebuilt but it was going to cost more an i could afford(and they took ...

These ever make it to production?

from where i am taking the photo there is a stone wall about 2.5' high between the 2 levels of the parking lot. you can see the slight hill between the blue tractor and the trailer is where i pull up to and then back up... been doing it for 25 years without incident.....

Hey Bill, get a UV dye kit to help diagnose where it is coming from. My bet is the valve cover gasket. Give it a good clean, then add the dye and keep an eye on it.

well Jim, it would seem you were right. I took the VC off and cleaned it and the major leak seems to be gone. Thank you for your ...

well that didnt go as planned.... i have been pulling into the orchard parking lot and backing up for 25 years and never an issue, the day before the 200 leaves and this.....

both paul and i were pretty disappointed, i guess ill have to pay for my roof another way. I was able to ...

Well, a lot has changed in my life since i was blessed with this 200 20v, now that i am a father to 4 kids and own a house that needs a roof i was thinking if i would be able to keep the 200. I did not want to let it go. I prayed about it, then Paul called me (inline560) and wanted to fly out from ...

Double post

still tracking down this small oil leak. Trying to get a photo of it. Originally thought it was from the catch can return line which could be a small part, but every time I checked I see oil near where the head meets the block and there is oil in the bracket for the alternator. This is the photo ...

hows she running?

pretty well, had some oil leaking from near alternator, but seems to be better after tightening up the turbo return line. The pressure sender is still leaking but that will have to wait till next oil change. Overall runs great, still on break in for another few hundred miles ...

Inspected

Well I'll be taking it to get inspected soon, rear bushings and no alignment equal bald inner tires. Enter the tires/rims that came with my euro van. Really doesn't look as good with them but it is inspectable https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180613/94b1be9bc23ad5845d3a4f8641e90dfa.jpg

ok, been a while so another update:

car is running good, although it wasnt at first. as it turns out cyl #3's injector was not firing. when i pulled the plugs in an attempt to read them the #3 still looked brand new while the others looked normal. Tested for spark and it was a go, pulled the ...

Well it is back on the road, had to open up a lot of holes to get bumper on but it is on

so after multiple coolant leaks to repair the car is finally running good, tuning will be next on that front. I did a oil change, its been probably 20min of run time, here is the magnetic drain plug. im glad i got it...

Tonight i tried to get the bumper back on, it is going to ...

update time, today i put the car back on the ground. It is running, not leaking oil or coolant and hopefully no 'green gold' I had replaced 2 of the 8 washers with copper this past winter as it had developed a leak in the rebuilt pump and i had read that the copper washers were the best long term ...

The ETDI swap is so simple, once the harness is pared down. Electronic control of the TDI makes it so much better in every way in my opinion.
-full glow plug control
-working OBD plug and check engine light for VT inspection Nazis. This alone makes the ETDI swap a requirement in my opinion ...

The serial to USB cable is way to short so i purchased a 5 ft well reviewed USb extension and finally was able to get the VEMS file off of the car. I have only ever used megasquirt in the past, VEMS seems to be great.
Here is the log file, i still need to learn a bit more about it.

Yea, it got quieter today when started, but the PS pump was leaking pretty bad still. I switched the high pressure ports over to copper washers this winter but it still leaks bad. Looks like it will be coming back out. Glad I got the 5l jug of 11s.

It's alive, I think there's a problem with the lifters somewhere. The head seems very loud

Thanks Sean, I appreciate the input and I'm probably a bit nervous since I really don't want to blow it up after all the hard work
