german mk1 saloon 1600 8v

dipstick lol You will find it very difficult to fill it up from there unless you do it very very slowly, as it will back up, it will also make it look like it's got 20 litres of oil in on the distick reading for a few hours.

...yeah i had to make i few silly posts to get the right to post pics:d

trust me you WILL NEED the ecu from a MK4 astra to simply drive the coolant temperature part of it as the signal from the sensor wont work if you connect it to the dash. The speedo will need some sort of wheel sensor putting on (abs ring from a corsa B etc) and the rev counter should work straight away with no problems as its a traditional 50/50 item.

for the "wheel sensor" thing i've got a thing i think it's called adjustable speedo healer... but the thing with the ecu sounds bad, don't wanna know
what that will cost...

get one from a scrap yard, dirt cheap. OR make the circuit yourself lol

must it be from the z22se

or can it be from any mk4 engine?

not sure if you can use others, but they should since the dashboards in the astra wouldnt change their inputs

my fuel guage works on my vx220 stack... but in reverse ( Full = Empty, Empty = Full). Hadnt looked into the temp tho!

Hi Tobi,

herzlich wilkommen to the PNG forum, seems our forum is becoming more and more international these days. Portugal, Spain, Germany, Belgium, Holland, Ireland... you name it. Even people from Blighty can be found here! ;)

Anyway congratulations on the very clean Corsa-A you found last October. I've been meaning to find one in Holland but it looks like I have to venture in to Spain to get anything as clean as yours. Happy building!

MfG,
Niek

P.S. is that colour Mexico Red by any chance? Best colour ever! :thumb:
