Semi Carbon can' delete
« on: 22 July 2012, 18:20 »
In the picture below you can see I replaced the hose with a blue one going to the one way valve. I deleted the other pipe that went to another one way valve and to the tip, so I still have the carbon canister left with just the one blue silicone hose. I did it this way as it was easier, and I seen it done on a skoda forum for the aum engine.

Is it ok to do this? I have no codes yet

Just delete the carbon canister altogether and block off the inlet.

If you look at my thread, including tidying up the PCV system. It works perfectly. With a rock solid idle.

I have noticed on a couple of times of starting the engine up it has failed, it sounds like it is struggling to start. this seems to only happen when I start the car up first time of the day. Could this be to do with not fully deleting the carbon canister?

I can't see how it could really. But I can only see separating the boost and PCV systems being a good thing.

Maybe plugs?

I haven't had my spark plugs changed in about 2 years, but I did just have a new set of coil packs. What are the best plugs to get?

Thanks

That may be ok depending what's in there ATM. I run NGK pfr6q's which are the OE platinum choice. But I only run light boost. They are about £10 each from ECP.

There are other plugs atoubd that run cooler but need changing more regularly

I can't remember what ones I put in mine, but they were about £22 from Halfords, and they were what Nick at R-Tech recommended. I have a stage 1 remap
