The multifunction EFI is available in a small rectangular format and a larger round package that includes magneto test switches. Other than the magneto test switches, both formats are functionally identical. Both units simultaneously display all of the following data on a large, two-line liquid crystal display (LCD). Referring to the figures, the functions are; engine RPM, AUX, two exhaust gas temperatures (EGT), two cylinder head (CHT) or one Coolant temperature, Altitude, Climb rate and Flight Time. The unit also displays total accumulated engine time (Hobbs) at the push of a button. The LCD contrast can be adjusted from the normal seating position with the up/dn switch and provides a clearly readable display over a wide range of viewing angles. In addition, the LCD is backlighted for night viewing.

The ATS Co-Pilot module commands the lock-up clutch of the torque converter along with the exhaust brake, if equipped, to stay engaged. This allows for up to 100% of the retarding force to be transferred in 3rd and 4th gear and the transmission oil temperature to remain low because of little to no slippage occurring when the converter is in these selected gears. When the ATS Valve Body is installed, you can use engine braking in the low-speed position of nearly 12 mph in 1st or 2nd gear.

Clean the block mounting surface area and then install the supplied gasket and oil cooler adapter block. Install the oil cooler adapter bolts and tighten the bolts to 106 in-lbs (12 Nm).

Use thread sealing compound on the sensor or sensor plug threads along with the adapter block bolt threads. If you are using this adapter on a vehicle that does not have an oil temperature sensor or has the sensor mounted elsewhere, then you should plug the oil temperature sensor port with the supplied M12 plug and crush washer. If you are not using this adapter to supply oil to a turbocharger, supercharger or other application then you should plug the 1/8” NPT port with the supplied fitting.

This page describes my aftermarket gauge install on my 2001 VW Golf TDI. It should directly apply to any Mk4 (99.5+) Golf or Jetta TDI and it should apply to the 98+ New Beetle TDIs. For other engines, wiring should be similar, but the installation of senders into the engine will be different. The intention of this page is to share information about my install and to help others who are considering an install. I tried to photograph everything important. Shoot me an email if you can think of a photo that you’d like to see that I haven’t included. In fact, any comments are welcome.

High standard of finish Five Star Euro NCAP rating On road performance With many European car makers deciding to introduce diesel versions of their new luxury models into Australia, it would seem a logical step for Peugeot to do the same - given that they have been at the forefront in the latest thinking in diesel design and innovation for many years. Peugeot introduced the first Diesel Particulate Filter in 2000, which has overcome the diesel particulate [black soot] problem that has plagued the industry forever. The new Peugeot 407 ST HDi Diesel is a n exiting new vehicle in many ways; Peugeot has been able to put their latest diesel technology into one of the most striking looking vehicles around.

All BMW VANOS systems are operated through electric/hydraulic/mechanical control. Electric Control: The engine control module is responsible for activating a VANOS solenoid valve based on DME program mapping. The activation parameters are influenced by the following input signals:
• Engine speed
• Load (intake air mass)
• Engine temperature
• Camshaft position
• Oil temperature (MS 42.0 only)
