VW would just put a resistor in line with the gauge so when you look and check the temp it would match your testing. Other than that turn down the fun screw on the injection pump. Assuming stuff like timing is all good

He's not wrong..
..though if it's an SB code, it *should* already have one. They can be a bit ineffective though if not done right. Edited by syncroandy - 07 Oct 15 at 18:49 |

Thanks all,i'm using the jx pump [as the sb pump didn't work properly].
The jx pump still has the collar on the max fuel screw,so I'm a bit surprised at the high egt.. Andy any ideas where to fit the sb intercooler? Ta. |
