Ah I see what you mean now... *facepalm*
Apparently the EGR valve acts like a 5th branch from an exhaust mani when unplugged and not blanked off properly?
Ity just bleeds air off one exhaust port and feeds it back through the head into the inlet.
It's in this picture just at the left hand edge.

#469: Re: Project sleeper Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Wed May 05, 2010 11:33 pm ---- Why doesn't it do it when running though? Why does it only do it when it has sat for a while? Or is it just heat build up?
#470: Re: Project sleeper Author: macj, Location: EssexPosted: Thu May 06, 2010 12:37 pm ---- Mine would run from cold.... then would not start again till cold until it gave up all together and needed new coil drivers fitted.... they packed up shortly after as well.... Found the cause to be a loose earth on the ECU side and it was earthing through the drivers
#471: Re: Project sleeper Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Thu May 06, 2010 1:35 pm ---- When the car started briefly If I put the high beam lights on it causes it to cut out. Does that back up your theory?
After that it ran fine...all the way home...I really shouldn't be having to put up with problems like this especially so soon after picking it up.
#472: Re: Project sleeper Author: macj, Location: EssexPosted: Thu May 06, 2010 4:01 pm ---- The lights would load the circuits but not on a related circuit. interesting though... I think it is an intermitent earthing fault

Do you know the reference number for those torsion bars? I can't seem to find them on the Peugeot Sport website...thanks

CC17010-21
CC17011-21
€194.65x2=€389.30 + approx €50 for postage (They charged that for my GP A wishbones) = €439.30
Which according to the Financial Times is about £378.59.
Bargain!
#475: Re: Project sleeper Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Fri May 07, 2010 1:37 pm ---- Took a little video earlier and I noticed something unusual. The idle speed wasn't where is once was and the revs are surging slightly too. When I got it the idle speed was spot on 1k rpm and something seems to have changed.
I've noticed this slight surging when driving too.
#476: Re: Project sleeper Author: macj, Location: EssexPosted: Fri May 07, 2010 1:49 pm ---- Classic symptom of fuel starvation..... or weak running
#477: Re: Project sleeper Author: Steve206, Location: UKPosted: Fri May 07, 2010 2:57 pm ---- Thats my idle speed when i start up, soon settles to 950k revs after a few mins. Odd that your revs are bouncing though. Can you tell through the engine?
Have you conected your air temp sensor yet?
#478: Re: Project sleeper Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Fri May 07, 2010 3:02 pm ---- I'm not touching the air temp sensor until the problems are sorted. It doesn't need any added complications!
From the video the main thing you notice is the rev counter, when sitting in the car though the rev pick up is more sudden and can be felt through the car.
#479: Re: Project sleeper Author: Seb, Location: Under your bedPosted: Fri May 07, 2010 3:26 pm ---- What does the AFR look like at idle? It's meant to be leaner on idle to keep it going, as too rich would cause stutters (partly due to the fuel cooling the mixture so much it almost chokes itself cold), but not so lean as to cause it to potentially do what you're seeing there.

Is that not just the case because of the throttle bodies?
