The Project Pad

Oh yeah I am replacing the valve cover gasket easy and cheap enough, and the throttle body gasket. I can't imagine much more. I was also surprised about the silicone pieces getting trashed, bleh.

PLEASE CHECK OUT MY SWAP MEET THREAD FOR PIECES I NEED THAT BURNED UP, THANK YOU!!!

what leaked the gas? why did it leak gas?
not to bug you but maybe others can learn from this.

Ugh dude, so sorry to see, that really really sucks.

That said, I'd be interested in parts.

Lmk what you would want for:
Rods
Brakes front and rear
Suspension stuff
Wheels?
Would you sell just the head?
Possibly fuel system stuff if the stuff in the bay isn't too badly damaged?

The fitting for the feed at the back of the fuel rail. It leaked I was trying to fix it. It just sparked up somehow. Still can't see just the fuel leak going up like that. It was only running for 30 seconds couldn't have gotten that hot.

I appreciate it. But I believe I am going to attempt to repair it and get her on the road. If I don't I will let you know asap

Small arc somewhere possibly?

Yeah I'm going to say I still had shitty grounds even though I did address the issue maybe it was not sufficient.

OK, Good!

As much as I'd love some goodies, I'd rather see you keep at it and get her going again.

Engine harness out of engine compartment. Cleaned things up also.




Burned stuff.


Where the good wires start, right before the first engine sensor.

Well I got good and bad news. Bad news I have made it official that I will be parting it out. Pretty sad but yeah. She is limited to engine harness and sensor damage. Really can be put together fairly easy I just don't have the time to dedicate to a project of that magnitude unfortunately.

I found a new car and have already found a new car and I will be getting it here in a couple weeks. Already have worked on a price, payment, etc with the current owner.






03 RS6. Eurocharge Stage 2, Wagner ICs, Milltek downpipes, H&R, etc etc. Really really like it. Kind of one of my affordable dream cars (also a 930).

Really rather sell the 91 200 as is. Please make me a decent offer so I don't have to rip her apart too badly.

Holy fuck that's one way to do it.

Congrats on the new car! It's bad ass for sure. Hopefully someone in the community picks up the 200.

Bummed about the car,
But stoked about the rs6.
Like damn son.

Hopefully all the necessary maintenance/upgrades were done on the RS6....those can be very expensive really quick.
Almost bought one a couple years ago.......

Sucks about your 200....but you'll have more fun in the RS6

Lucky bastard. Want.

Wow that's an upgrade! Haha

pm'd

Welp. Kind of being a woman here, changing my mind again. But I'm doing what I really want to do. I am fixing it. Still getting the RS6 as one of my "affordable dream cars" (still need a 930 turbo in the future), but I will be fixing the 200 and finishing her. I just got really discouraged, but I would love to see her done. Already contacted people with used OEM parts that I need and have most of them (still need some more so HALP!!). Contacted Marc @ EFIexpress and 034 and working on replacing all the expensive shit that got destroyed. So expect some progress to be happening here shortly.

Yay!!

Whoo!

I'll be heading to UNH tonight to drink a few hundred adult tonics....still need the bumper? I can try to squeeze it into the old mans mini?

Hey I know that RS6! That belongs to a guy who works at S line in Omaha. A buddy I went to college with works with him. It's pretty close to my house actually. Awesome car.
