Is this the recent ebay one with the broken cambelt? Looks very clean, I fancied it but alas no trailer, space, time or money. Good to see another valver, we must be upto about 5 now?

it is indeed i dint have a trailer either so i used ebays 7 day free insurance an the called the rac out an told them i had broke down so saved miself maybe 50 quid in trailer/ recovery hire

just need a bottom end for it now

Stick a 2.0l in, 8v mid range and 16v top. Brilliant.

looking good matey,keep us posted on the engine work!
golf was sweet 1

yeah if you ahve to sort out the bottom end 2.0li is the best way to go if you can find one!

Car looks awesom buddy keep us posed i love the red my brother had the golf 8v in that color (is it flame red not great with colors) tried to buy it off him when he bought his mk3 it was well nice golf looked great buddy

nice motor mate was looking at bidding on it also but forgot when the auction ended wot arches have u got on your old golf or where did u get them done

i rebuilt bottom end on the 1.8 an lets just say its not a happy bunny pretty much the oil buzzer is on most of the time haha anyways. not realy done much lately as i have been busy with work so all i had chance to do is tidy it up a little so the it looks prestetable till i start the spending after xmas haha. altho i have made 1 purchase igot a 2.0 9a out of a pissrat thats gettin rebuilt to be put in over the next few weeks . heres the newist pics

im actuly just about to go an wash an polish it aswel been as the boss is out all day so ill try takin some more better pics haha

Have you tried swapping the oil pressure wires round? If the tappets aren't noisy you'll have enough pressure.

Connecting them the wrong way is a common mistake and results in exactly what you describe.

Looking tidy, got yourself a good bargain there and the 2.0l will really transform it into a very useable fast road car.

i tryed oil pressure wires also tryed new senders all i can think of is maybe the oils a little thin as it seems to be like water. the thing that puzzles me is the fact it pulls like a train

Could be a broken wire? The buzzers don't usual go off without good reason.

Could be worth changing the oil to some 15/40w Silver Synta. TPS is cheaper than the stealers if there's one in your area.

yeah if you do struggle with your oil pressure wires let me know i had a right ball ach with mine for ages, turned out to be broken wires but i found out mos tricks for troubleshooting them

the oil buzzer seems to come on when the car is around half way up tempiture gauge around 108-112 on the mfa it will be on if im sat in 5 doin 60 but above 70-80ish it will go away but round town once its come on it wont go off till i dipclutch an give it some revs then few mins later its back

well sounds like you have ruled out quite a few things there, my first reccomendation would be to take it to your local garage and get the oil pressure checked, they will usually do this for free and it will at least put your mind at ease as to weather your oil pump has had it or not. and lets face it if your oil pump has had it you need to know asap!

if your oil pressure is fine then we can look into diagnosing an electrical fault.

what wheels are on that sold golf, are they just mini fitment lites? if so they are mint ! i need the spec plleeeeeeeeeeeeeeease

i think they are mini wheels by the looks of it yeah. they look fat as f00k wouldnt mind some of them for myself

They look like empi 8 spokes to me? Could be wrong though.

Tidy Jetta, nice to see another red valver

If its the same as mine (which it appears to be) then it will be tornado red. x
