Hello together! Have the following plans: Lexmaul Ram with processed throttle valve, adjustable petrol pressure regulator, 268° inlet camshaft by Wolf (DTC racing stable Rudi Wolf) the shaft is driven with org. xe outlet shaft, finely adjustable camshaft wheel and an adapted control unit The head is overhauled, valve stroke has the shaft 9.75mm 1. Do you think the shaft will go well? 2. Who has experience with planned heads? at 9.75mm valve stroke I can plan head by how much 10.el. 3. Do you have any additional suggestions? Please don’t have any answers about the price or the durability these play no role. Merci 🙂

I have been busy since Monday with a cadett E C16NZ, on which the timing belt was torn. I changed belts and water pump, but the engine did not want to run again. Compression 11 bar, 9 bar, 9 bar, 11 bar, sparks on all 4 cylinders available, gasoline also arrives enough, nevertheless it does not run on all 4 cylinders. When it runs times, it is very black and has little power. After a long time back and forth I changed the engine today for a running, which has now in the K I’ve replaced 3 ignition coils, 4 distributors, candles are new, 3 petrol pump relays, 3 control units, new Lambda, other injection valve. Checked: petrol pump -> Voltage and delivery power are coming. ignition coil -> Voltage and resistance are right. Tomorrow I want to expand and measure the wire harness… Does anyone else have a tip? I’ve been screwing Opels for almost 15 years, but this time I really don’t know any further

Hi guys, need your advice. My engine really eats the spark plug on the third cylinder. I bought the car 3 months ago. Changed the spark plugs,and I noticed that on the third cylinder the candle was completely burnt out. A month later I died of the electronic ignition coil, the third cylinder no longer got juice. Yesterday he ran restless, removed the candles and the candle from the third cylinder is attacked again. is black. I am finished with my advice. He burns no oil, compression is top. Who can help me ????????

Hello all, I have the problem with the oil pressure or flashing of the warning indicator in the idle area, especially after driving the motorway. As soon as I give a bit of gas and the engine has more than 1000 rpm it goes out. The oil level is correct. + Oil pressure switch has already been replaced + the oil pressure control resulted in a pressure at the lower limit (1.5 bar) After driving the motorway the higher oil temperature leads to a further pressure loss, which at Heranfahre n at a traffic light leads to an oil pressure below the lower limit. As far as so good..but there are now several other possibilities which lead to this error. The next schriit will be to remove the oil tank to check the valve for compliance with the minimum pressure, to look at the oil pump, intake snorkel etc. Maybe there is also another tip or if someone had this error, what was it in this case? Thank you in advance!! Jürgen

I’ve been having a vectra b caravan for 2 years. looks good on the car, but what really bugs me are the bugs that the car has. 3 curved, 3 light engines, 2 crankshaft sensors……. the workshop is always happy when I come to write opel and now you really want to have the engine number of my car and the name of the dealer. but what will happen??? NOTHING if you make mistakes at work then there is annoyed but opel doesn’t mind that Thousands of people annoy every day.

(the thread is already under Calibra but nobody had an idea yet, so I’m just trying it here) Well yesterday evening we talked to some acquaintances in the round and the topic was the following, now that my Cali slowly gets into the old age I want to convert next year to LET-technique called Turbo, and to him a nice retirement as a fun car on which he likes to mature with season marks in peace Now the stone of the wise again lies in the deatail, such a ie pleaded for a Z20LET because is more modern, others in turn a c20let or even as an alternative a turbo kit for an X20XEv ,zb of dybilas which is given there with 260hp…. because yesterday that was the impetus in a sense, a 3er 318is (had actually only 140 ps) Compact on the role experienced the delivered with a Lotec turbo kit now 222hp and 296NM Dremoment , so seems to be quite promising …. however, the BMW Maschi keep even in the “serial state” no modifications to the engine itself, fortunately with such a kit, which drive with approx.0,48bar…. what does this look like at Opel actually? Even more convincing I found then a 325i (actually 193hp) which supplied with compressor kit (also 0.48bar) 306 hp but how is that at Opel, what do you think is promising…… what would you do if…mfg

Servus to everyone, just wanted to share my experiences here. I tried a Claibra V6 this week in the original condition. And now I’m in the V6 fever. I myself have been driving an A-Vecci 2l 16V Eco for 2 years. The best was definitely the sound. Ok the exhaust was broken. But he didn’t sound broken or clattered, but was just loud and horny. He didn’t surprise me in terms of performance. My Vectra pulls almost as well. r Previous owner was a woman and he might have been a bit lame. I will not buy this Calibra. Coupling is at the end. Lots of rust on the thresholdrs. Will save the next time and drive my Vectra on. As soon as I see the right Cali, I will hit you. Now to you. Whether Calibra or Vectra A/B. Have you had similar experiences? Or maybe you are already building up your V6? What are you changing on the engine and coach? Just write everything in here… Greeting Matze

Hello has a clue, have me a C20NE processed channels on 40mm valve seats to outside. Compression raised to 10.5 SEH camshaft, adjustable cam wheel, fan manifold, 24V Kat with 57mm passage group N system. Eprom adapted. now to the problem; I let the cam run a little ahead( wanted to lose power and responsiveness from below) engine runs well, now also turns willingly up to 6800/Umin, at my age I turn but not there, have at 6500 good connection. w I start with high outdoor counters in the city traffic uphill e.g. ringing for a fraction of a second. so my thinking; the engine has an OT dealer. the rest of the ignition characteristic is stored in the Eprom, distributor is rigid. because I run the camshaft earlier. so in the direction of a clock. away from the make-up. is the runner in the cap yes also earlier. if I put the cam in the direction of the original the runner is later on the first Zylind he and the spark. or am I completely on the wooden way.??? if someone can think in and give me advice please answer. I thank you in advance. gr. poorin Possmann

Since I have my C20NE in the Corsa there are a few problems. Even though: 1. What can it be that my NE is already operating hot after 2KM driving ? Already shortly after starting the fan radiates extremely heat. Have then 95° operating temperature which can also be held. In the stand it goes up to 100° until the fan goes on. Thermostat is 100% in order because the cooler is bang “hot”. 2. He dies as soon as I have driven longer sometimes in idle mode and is then only with gas 3. Now I hear a strong knock on the area of the 2nd cylinder. From below you can hear that very well. What could that be, conrod bearing damage? But from the head that does not come. If the engine is warm, the knocking is gone. What consequences can a damage to the conrod bearing have? Bzw. what ads are there then? Here is a video where you can hear the knocking at the beginning.

Which users already have experience with the LPG analge by Irmscher. Man always tells me (selnst dier kinder opel dealer you should leave your fingers away from LPG in together with Opel engines. However, this should be remedied with the Irmscher analge allegedly – is more expensive than the otherwise offered analgen but if it as alternative would help that would be good. Also with the Opel dealers in recent times you can see now more often that your Astras and Vectras with the Irmscher Offer analge for sale. As a loyal and longtime Opel driver and frequent driver it would of course be interesting to drive with LPG system. So please all come back with your experience. Thanks in advance
