Hi Need some opinions on how much to ask for parts, don't want to ask to much but don't want to ask to little . Soon I will be parting out a ba turbo, has 135,000ks on it. Im keeping the motor, after prices for the 4speed auto works good, the diff works good <--- LSD , leather seats, black. All in good condition apart from a small section of stitching that has started to come undone from the heat. Its on the back seat about 40mm long, slight wear on drivers seat no holes just the colour is slightly different from use. Complete Premium sound system . Anything else that shouldn't be priced to cheep. Most of the smaller parts I'll put on eBay and let them go for whatever they go for. Lights trims etc. Cheers

Any one got the part number?. Links not working.

Hi turbotrana I hear what you are saying and agree, but... I will probably pull it out anyway. I'm putting it into a Cortina so I will have to go through all the wiring anyway, I will be deleting everything that's not necessary in the loom , abs,traction control, trans etc haven't looked into the wiring side of things much yet , will cross bridges as I get to them .guess the computer will need reprogramming too. Just looking for people's opinions of what to look for with my engine miss and hopefully get it sorted before I fire it up in its new home. Some pic to jazz up the thread . the corty it's going in, I'm leaving it as it is just a tidy up. Condition pretty good,only has 154,xxx ks on it , though it's spent the last 6 year's in the weather . And my poor ba, yes the missing problem was there before the accident .

Ok good idear. No I dont have a wiring diagram, I'll have a look and see if I can find one on the net. I'm going to pull the engine out soon so I will go over the wiring as you suggested . Thanks Ralph.

Hi. Ralf. I've already fitted new plug and tested coils by swapping coils to different cylinder made no difference. My diagnostics tools were limited to a screwdriver, one end to the injector other to my ear can clearly hear other injectors firing and not 1 and 5. But when engine runs good can hear 1 and 5 firing . Cheers.

Hi all Got a problem with my ba xr6t I've done some looking around but can't find any post/threads with same symptoms only similar . So here it go's started with a small miss at idle witch turned it a bad miss at all rpm. Neve happens when cold and it comes and go's . I got the computer read, running lean. I track the miss down to number 1 then number 5 injectors not working, that's obvious the start of the firing order too. I'm assuming there is no signal to those injectors when the miss comes on . One thing I do plan to check is that it hasn't jumped a tooth on the timing chain. Any other ideas of what could be causing this? Engine has 135xxx ks on it. Cheers.

With the oil cooled turbo's are people running a in line oil cooler before the turbo?

Thanks for the replies.

Some pg questions , just after some info to gather parts. Are the 6 and 8 Boxes interchangeable internally? Bell housings to fit 4l , all the pg's I've seen have the bell cast to the housing. Are you guys running pg's cutting off the bell from the housing ,can they be found with a removable bell or are you using after market cases? fitting the new bell, are you guys fixing the bell through the pump bolts?
