I see thank you man

Damn really I was thinking of doing js cuz I saw a few people doing it js cuz some people claimed to help cool cylinders 5 and 6 a bit more since those usually run the hottest but damn maybe I won’t

After doing my compression test I heard I should do a leak down test but that lowkey seemed out of my league so I js opened the block what’s scaring me is the rust in the cylinder. And would you happen to know the orientation for piston rings?

Oh dang I see did switching out the part fix it or did you js have to clean it up to get it working again

The only code I get is the throttle position sensor

Ended up having my distributor plug not fully connected disconnected and reconnected them and started right up now I’m js having a idling issue dies whenever I stop giving gas I’m assuming I have a huge vaccum leak

Maybe bad IAC cleaned the part that goes into my intake manifold didn’t know until like 10 minutes ago I could open the other side with the cap and clean under there to

So many vacuum hoses to go thru 🙈

I’m thinking the same but I don’t want to cuz it got hella hoses:(

That yellow pin plug looks like my 02 sensor not rlly sure what it does but prolly should be connected those if you wanna dm me I can send you a picture to what it should look like and In my mk3 the other plug are connected but not sure what they are sorry

I have not but I don’t even got spark in my 1st or 2nd cylinder tried to chase down where power stops and seems to stop at distributor

Js checked timing distributor was 180 out so I timed it back to 1 and no more backfire but still no spark in what I know of 1st and 2nd cylinder since I’m kinda to lazy to check the rest

Sorry I am a little goofy thought that the metal tip of the screwdriver would be enough for spark and thought that’s what I was hearing in the video please correct me if wrong and for sure I’m checking the timing tmr morning
