Hello
I have a b4 with a 7A motor swap and i have big problems with starting the engine, a lot of no start, or hard starting and misfiring.
I've changed almost all the stuff, OE or Bosch
- new dizzy, correct alignment
- new sensors (the two from flywheel and the coolant sensor from the back)
- new coil
- ignition contact
- ECU
- pin from the FW it is ok
- battery it is ok
Knock sensors - didn't changed but i don't belived that they influence the start of motor.
All the wiring, from ECU to sensors, to coil, to MAF, to ground - everything is ok but no spark, or hard and random starting. When i have spark and finally the motor start the idle is ok, engine is running ok. If i stop and i want to start again - i have no spark..it's a crazy
The problem is that the spark from the coil is random, i have the power on coil but no start or spark. I've seen one thing: when i turn on the contact the voltage is low (9.4-9,5V)
I read a lot on the forums and the problems could be from the ignition module switch (amplifier), but the problems is that i didn't fiind this module in my car. Maybe previous owner miss to put when the swap was made?
Please help with a picture in order to know where should be placed,
Thank you very much!
Mihai
