Help me figure out what this problem is before i burn my soarer!!

[01-VEY]

i had a similar problem with my wifes vectra , tried everything changed cam and crank sensors as it was logging faults.nothing worked and the problem was intermittant everything checked out and vehicle went fine untill it started to miss and then stop,ten minutes later it would start and run perfectly.it finally cooperated and showed up when we had a meter on it .the internal regulator was faulty and would go haywire and alternate charge rate from 9volts through to16 which caused the ecu to throw up non existing faults untill it gave up and shut down .dealers said they had not had any similar problems but the distributor of the regulators was out of stock and had back orders mostly from holden dealers.
i wish you luck, these things are bloody annoying.
cheers greg

Hi DV
The above info could very likely be a cause of the system failure the car has. I work in Auto Electrical parts and have heard of many similar faults due to alternator starting to pack it in. I logged into the sales system at work and if the application guide is correct we have both aftermarket ($264) and genuine ($330) units in stock. If you do need an alternator it would help me to find the exact one you require if I have the O/E Toyota or Denso numbers. I also should be able to get a regulator using those numbers if that is all that is needed. You will pay only the wholesale price and recieve a tax invoice for the amount charged.

You can Either PM me or e-mail me

thanks both mark and greg.

Greg your post reminded me of some very strange issues my old 165 was having when the alternater was packing it in. I will test it as soon as I get a chance and post back here.

Mark thanks for the offer, its really appreciated. Ill let you know if i need one after I give it a test

Are you sure you are not running low resistance injectors on an ECU that
is designed for high resistance injectors ??
