New here and new 90 Coupe Quattro

Post by Mk1Madness »

Hello, new here with new to me Coupe Quattro. Have wanted one for ages but Mk1 VW's usually take up all of my time. Finally picked this up last week.

Not quite a project but more refresh for daily use. Going to do some searching for the issues it has. Power Steering pump is leaking a bit and man issue is the stalling. Going to check for vacuum leaks and the ISV, idles around 1000k and stalls when I come to a stop. Not always but pretty often.

Here's some of my other stuff.
My 75 OG paint Swallowtail

Glad to be here and dive into the Quattro. :wave:

Nice! looks like it already has a euro front bumper. Those intake boots have lots of places that hide cracks well, i'm betting it is in there somewhere.

Home today with my son so can't hit my garage but started it and it idles fine, it's when it warms up the issue rears its head. Checking for vacuum leaks. Once I get to the garage I'll dive deeper.

What's a good online place for parts? I'm used to GAP but they don't have much for this.

Edit: Yeah, the PO has a rear euro bumper and the B4 hood and rad support I need to pick up as well.

Thanks a ton, this is what I need. Ordered a kit for the leak on the PS Pump, it's good cause it's at the top and looks to be an easy fix. TIG welding up the exhaust for my Rabbit tonight then going to throw this on my lift.
