  • Audi 80 engine (PM) has no power

    Evening, I am now also Audi owner. Today I made the first test drive and am very disappointed by the engine. I think I have never driven such a lames car. The 1800 carburetor engine with 90 hp in my B3 of 91. In the lower speed range with half gas it feels normal, with full gas the engine seems to be only louder, but not stronger. In addition, it is not at all cooperative at the speeds… From 3500 on nothing happens and is moving. ts at 5200 according to the rev indicator it then limits. Was thus already once briefly in the workshop of my trust. Ignition time fits now and exhaust gas on the tester also fits relatively well. At least it should not be. Exhaust gas behaviour with load we unfortunately could not check on the AU tester

  • VW 16v KR engine in Audi 80 Type 81

    Evening… I just remembered that I wanted to ask something. I have an Audi 80 Type 81 GTE as 2nd car. At the moment I drive it, but soon my 90’s Quattro. In the 80’s there is now a 1.8L engine in it. The previous owner has mounted a different head (from the Quattro PV), why ever. I have now Weber on it (very strong!!!) and I like that really well. The engine now makes so slowly sluggish. Now my question: Does the 1.8L 16v KR motor from the VW pallet fit into my My girlfriend drives a Jetta 16v and he’s doing so well, and in an Audi a 16v with Weber, that’s what I’d like to do. Or which Audi engine gets the power and the noise? And what would the nice gentlemen of the TÜV say about it? I now have a U-Kat engine in it, so the 115 hp series. It wouldn’t be a retrofit. I hope one can help me here too… Thanks for your answers…

  • Battery constantly empty overnight – how to find cause?

    Hello municipality, have the problem with my T89 at the moment that the battery is constantly sucked off and I have therefore for quite a while always clamped down the minus pole due to lack of time. Short history to facilitate possible limitations: At the beginning of the year my steering pole switch was defective, for this I had here in the forum also wrote a post:http://www.motor-talk.de/forum/switch-down-light-defect-help-to-repair-t2503819.html After this outand built and repaired, it also worked perfectly again until the beginning of May. At the moment I suspect two things about the history with the battery: First I immediately thought about the switch, because one day I switched on the light and had to find that the speedometer lighting no longer works. After I shut down the car after this ride, the battery was empty the next day. I had of course immediately the battery due to the time connection Switches are suspected, because the tach lighting is switched on via this. I have meanwhile also got a new switch, but with this the same problems continue. In other words, the speedometer lighting does not work and the battery is empty overnight. The second suspicion lies on the retrofitted radio remote control, which is mounted in the trunk aum at the servo pump. I have found that now only one turn signal side by pressing the remote Bedi I could also imagine that this is somehow the culprit. What do you mean by that? Is there any evidence in your eyes that it might be one or the other? How could I find out this relatively uncomplicated and reliable? (Measurement is available)

  • oil on spark plug

    moin together and first of all a happy new so the car about what it is about: audi 100 avant 2.3 quattro bj 89 1-th question: I have been observing for a long time that oil is leaking out at the candles (it really comes out of the candle and not from the valve lid or servopume!) . It doesn’t bother me special but meanwhile the sourness is already quite big and I would be interested in what the cause is, so that you can take this with you in the next reperature. vll still next to half a year ago I jumped at high speed of the timing belts, since then there is the problem of the further he runs at 3000-3300 turns a bit rough or loud. and does not pull so well !? after that is normal again. spark plugs are also properly dressed and a change also did not bring anything 2-th question: soon he would need a change of oil since this is also long overdue what would you recommend for oil ? so far I only have the cheap 15W – 40 out of the construction market n tilted, which is really not so the optimal.. greets Sparke

  • Audi 80 2.0E – Engine very tough

    Hello, today wanted to speed up my car strongly and I noticed that the engine will be very tough from about 3900 rpm even though I pressed the pedal to the end. After c.a 4500 revolutions it is no longer fun to turn the engine up because I feel it is not turning up anymore. It is as if the car is pulled from behind, but the engine fights against it. The acceleration is thus noticeably bad. The question is now whether it is due to the mileage of 275000km and an old it is normal from 19 years, or if something is wrong with the engine. If there are also drivers who have the same. ps: it is a two-liter engine with 113 hp
