Hey bud really helpful tutorial only thing is for me it won’t start after removing the breather and wire any ideas

Hey man, try it with just the wire out first, how does it do? Maybe try unplugging that while it’s working. If the revs plummet turn the idle screw until it steadies out (make a note of how many turns and in what dir incase you need to undo it)

My emission test got passed, it only measured CO2, and I got the value 1,5 Does that mean 1,5 percent? I do have some backfiring when letting off the throttle So basically I should do this guide and screw the CO screw tiny bit clockwise?

i believe so yes, its takes the TINIEST of turns, so be very genetle with it. in teh end mine went to a local garage and they sorted it out properly, a mixbetween the o2 screw , the idle screw and the electronic timing

is this the same exact way for a 1986 8 valve cis e ?

I don’t really know myself, I have only owned one diesel golf and it’s the 1990 GTD. there have been a lot of issues with mine but none so far have been the engine itself. I believe they should be good for over 200,000 miles

The red lead is to the ignition coil

It is red and black, this powers the Idle Stabiliser Valve/overrun cut of valve ECU in the centre consul and shuts down its operation BUT this is not a necessary part of setting the CO.

You don’t block the Air Flow Sensor Input, no point and with the breather hose still attached to the inlet manifold via the bleed hose you are still pulling crankcase fumes Into the inlet manifold. Disconnect the breather hose from the block breather, cover the outlet to stop you breathing shit and allow clean air into the breather hose.
