Re: Help with a 245Ti! 200 1984

Hello Angel,

I'll make some suggestions, hope they help.

1. When I first drained my engine and I used the drain cock on the side

of the block. Mine was clogged. I removed the part of the fitting that

you loosen and probed in there. It was clogged with the sealer stuff

that you can use to seal your radiator. Maybe yours has some corrosion

or this stuff in there. Just use a piece of hanger wire and carefully

probe the fitting. Whatever is clogging it you'll see.

2. When you were working on the throttle body section did you use the

B23/230 throttle body or the original one? If you used the B23/230 one

then you must modify the throttle position switch. It needs a wire switched

inside it to provide the correct signal to the CIS. As I recall Stu Spencer

has a nice write up about this on his web page. You can get to it from

Turbobricks.

3. You cannot use the vacuum ports on the manifold for the distributor.

The distributor uses vacuum that changes as you rev the engine. The ports

on the manifold have constant vacuum. You must use the small hose connection on the throttle body. This is the small hose that goes to the

charcoal canister under the fender.

Sounds like your close. Wish you well.
