ANF Posted 21June, 2017 Report Share Posted 21June, 2017 I have had to admit defeat and get someone to look at my car.... The verdict is that the CIS WUR (warm up regulator) is in need of replacement/ rebuild. Has anyone had any dealing with K-Jet Specialist in Brisbane who can offer me a rebuilt one? Good, bad or otherwise?http://www.k-jet.biz/prices.htmlThanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russ Posted 21June, 2017 Report Share Posted 21June, 2017 Pretty sure that guy has been going forever (and rebuilt my fuel distributor) he had a shop but has started working from home. Was the go-to guy for injection stuff in brisbane for the last 15 years at least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bear924 Posted 21June, 2017 Report Share Posted 21June, 2017 I used K-jet about twelve months ago. I was very impressed with the owner's knowledge and communication. He found my WUR was running with half a spring (to help control boost AFR on turbo). Have only just completed my engine rebuild and haven't fully tested the new fuel system however I'm confident that my WUR and distributor are now fully sorted.

Russ Posted 21June, 2017 Report Share Posted 21June, 2017 I think there was a thread on warm up regulators on here, and interchange on German cars. They're a precision instrument for something that looks like a couple of bits of copper (to me) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew F Posted 22June, 2017 Report Share Posted 22June, 2017 Looking at the info on his website, it doesn't look like a difficult job. No mention of special tools, just a screwdriver, razor blade & a socket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No mention of special tools, just a screwdriver, razor blade & a socket. Single diaphram looks easier than the double, if your pressures are out like mine you will most likely need to reset the pressure with the use of some pressure gauges, but you could try it an see. I am going to go with the rebuilt one, $300 and makes it easy, I have done enough fixing for now on this car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shady Speedway Posted 23June, 2017 Report Share Posted 23June, 2017 I opened mine up and cleaned it. The testing is done on the car.Got a few from a wrecking yard at about $10 each. You can find them on Mercs and Volvos.Once I pulled them apart and worked out the internals. I was not afraid of messing with mine.Turbos have an extra input to compensate for boost. Making them harder to find. There are various bimetalic strips in them. Basically hot and cold climates can be factored into warm up time.Though if you're in a pickle you don't need to pay Porsche tax if you're crafty enough.
