Megazorb Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 Hi, Has anyone got any photos on-line of their VVC engine? Mine's not starting after putting the enginre back in and I need to check a few wiring connections. Thanks, Julian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevsta Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 Have just installed a VVC into what was a 1400SS (and so been down the route of wiring!). What is it doing/not doing? Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megazorb Posted May 19, 2005 Author Share Posted May 19, 2005 Kevsta, The fuel pump isn't starting, and there's no life in the starter motor. On attempting to start there is a relay click but no solenoid and no starter action. Cheers, Julian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom White Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 Julian, What vintage is your VVC 🤔 If it's an EU2 then you can look here The later models had a different MFRU (mine is 1999). There are some tips on this site on bypassing relays etc to check for pump operation/starter problems. Good luck Tom P.S I am currently adding a step by step proceedure for servicing the tappets, hope to be finished by end of May. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megazorb Posted May 20, 2005 Author Share Posted May 20, 2005 Tom, I have no idea whether it's EU2 or EU3. Where can I find this out? Great site, it should be very handy, ta. Julian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Walker Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 There should be a single thick purple wire that connects to a spade terminal near the ECU check this is connected. Also check your inertia switch is reset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megazorb Posted May 22, 2005 Author Share Posted May 22, 2005 All fixed now, I'd simply got some crossed wires! Thanks everyone. Julian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
