Because of the 180 bend I had to move the conector for the battery cables. My inertia switch has never been working, so I put the batterycables there instead.

The big black "snakey" cabel is the motronic wiering. I havn´t placed it whereI want it yet, but it WILL look better than that!

Here´s a closer look on how the 164 throttlr body is placed after the 180 bend.

That´s all for now, not much but atleast I´m back on track.

Hmm.. Question:

Does anyone know if the old "doubble relay" is needed at all now that I´m using the motronic?

Same thing with the other black thing next to it in the upper right corner of this photo? What is it and do I need it?

The double relay runs the fuel pump, among other things. So, if you already re-wired that you probably don't need it. I would think that you wouldn't need it if you got the entire Motronic setup from the donor car. Perhaps get the car running before you start tearing out things.

OK, thants a lot Jes! Yes, I´m using the fuel pump relay from the Motronic. I just wasn´t sure what the other of the two relays was for.

Well, when I converted my L-Jet 75 (milano verde) to GoTech I got rid of all L-Jet stuff, such as the double relay. I think your "Motronic conversion" is very similar in that regards, unless you intentionally re-use some L-Jet parts. But, intuitively, I cannot see why you would do that.

Jes!

Do you know what the other black "connector" next to the battery cables and the double relay on the front of the window wiper engine box is? It shows next to the double relay in the pic above.

Can't tell from the pic. I would guess it is ignition related. A workshop manual should identify it. I don't have a GTV6 workshop manual, only several milano/75 manuals

, and I'm away from "home". But, I'm sure some of the hard core GTV6 guys can tell off the top of their head. Someone?

Seb it's a little difficult to see in the picture but I believe that it is the "altitude compensation device" which L Jet reads to adjust mixture for height above sea-level.

I´ll get a better picture for you. But I think its only thing were wires meet. If its L-jet related it would be out of play now, which would be good.

hey guys!

here´s a picure of the thing I´m wondering about. It´s the one to the left, the black square thingy.

Murray · Post by **Murray** » Mon Aug 08, 2005 5:10 am

Ok Seb that's not the altitude compensation device.It looks more like another cable junction box.Does the front of it pop off ?

Seb · Post by **Seb** » Mon Aug 08, 2005 5:24 am

Thanx Murray

Yupp, its only a palce where wires meet as i said earlier. The question is, for what? Is it for the L-jet only?

Does anyone have a manual who can check?

Seb,

That pic does not look anything like any of the ones above? From a different car, or different stage?

Without being sure it could be the connection points of the starter. On my 3.0 75 (Milano Verde) there is a junction box right next to the double relay, with power for the starter and signal for the solenoid. Don't know if that is it... Is it a THICK red and a "regular" black? If indeed it is the starter junction, you obviously need it. Really only guessing, though...

Jes

I think that the starter wiring is in the junction to the right. There u can see the thick red wire you´re mentioning.

The picture is from the same car, but before I dismounted it. The black thing it is screwed to is the screen in fromt of the windscreen wiper.
