- Episode.71 - MID SEASON FINALE
If the Peugeot won't do as you like it to, make it look pretty. So this one is unfortunately for the eyes more than the driving. And as I am now busy with regular work for a change, it is unfortunately time to take a break.
Until then, thank you!
This is part 7 of my Peugeot 205 GTI restoration - on the quest to become my new daily driver.

Haven’t visited this channel since your LR build. Glad to see you are still around.
Thank you so much for making these videos! I think about your channel often and how crazy it is you still make such a good quality video. The mudflaps are sick! Hopefully you come back with a higher fun meter in 3 months! :D
Looking forward to more 205 content, I like how you deliver it and I trust your skills to fix it after the drama has settled down. I've daily driven quite a few 205gtis/ctis for years and I can assure you they're quite reliable when sorted out properly.
Have fun on your trip ! I'm sure when you get back you will get the 205 as it's supposed to be! Don't give up !
One of the best moto/adventure channels ever!
Thank you... Good on you for not giving up! Look forward to seeing progress whenever it may happen...
Tank you! Will be looking forward to the continuation and miss your content until then.
Superb films: without doubt one of the best, if not the best, car ownership/restoration/road trip channels on TH-cam. Thank you for all you are doing to create these films.
Thank you, thank you!
Wow! Loved it! Didn’t knew you had a blog. It was a pleasure to see you guys again in La Carrera🎉
✌🏼✌🏼🥰
Have a safe trip. Recharge and goodluck!!! Thanks for all the videos. Maybe one day I can fix my 944 just like yours! So cool! Peace.
Thanks for taking us along on the journey! On the plus side: Sounds like you have great projects immediately ahead of you :-)
Great content and production. Thanks man. Enjoy the Americas, and hope to see another season of your channel next year!
Looking forward to more content when you get back. Im actually a mechanic in the states by trade so I'm going to go back through your videos and see if I can figure anything out.
Just discovered your videos today only to also discover you are taking a break. I hope you come back to this before too long. The quality of your videos is outstanding and appeals to folks like me that understand the effort and craftsmanship that goes into your builds and your videos.
Bad timing, huh? 😅
Enjoy South America! As for the car. Apart from the usual suspects of compression, timing and spark, is the vacuum advance unit membrane OK? The timing seems to be terribly off. I ended up buying a complete Dutch ignition module (123Ignition) with an electronic vacuum gauge and a French mechanical modification to make it fit the 205.
I wish you went back to the 2L 924 scene :) perhaps you can find one over the pond ;)
There will be a 2.0T at some point, the N/A is something I‘ve grown out of I think. 😉
Good luck, hope to see you soon!
Hey man! by the sound it makes when you accelerate it seems that the timing advance is waaaaay waaaaay waaaaaaay like really much advanced haha!
If I remember correctly vacuum actuators for timing advance were prone to go bad on those
Yeah, but how? Cambelt timing is done through pins in the pulleys and the distributor has only about 5deg of adjustability within its slotted holes and sits dead center. It should at least run somewhat decent, no? The noise only appears under load, not while holding or at idle.
@fila1445 - Yes (is on the shopping list btw), but also doesn‘t explain the noise. It seems an awful lot like there a multiple things being off and now diagnosis is only possible once the whole lot is considered… 😭😂
@@OnlyARoadtripAway that´s the sign of an advanced timing, that noise is knocking. I really don´t know how is the timing set up in the 205 but if the distributor has springs maybe they are bad, so when you accelerate the timing goes to the moon..
Did you check the initial timing?
@@FranRuiz I had simmilar noise when I went to France and fuelled up their “95” octane fuel :p
It was definitely pre-igniting at high engine loads.
Once I’ve refuelled with 98 the noise went away
See you soon!
Ive loved your beautiful cinematography for years. Hopefully the break for work helps rejuvenate you. I cant wait till you return with more videos. Till next time from the US, Cheers~
It‘ll be fiiiiiine. 😅😅
They seem picky with ignition module, only use OE or Valeo ignition coil, and to look at throttle switch
The module is 1-0 thing, either works or it doesn‘t (if the wiring is alright). The coil wasn‘t the problem, and apparently no part of the ignition system was (apart from the plugs).
we miss you!
working on it!!
Lets gooooo
Woooooooo
Dizzy 180 deg out maybe?
I´ve been there... not on a pug though :)
Flywheel could be put on out of sync.. I think the pickup is on that. But you haven't messed with that have you?
But I do doubt that it would run that "good"....
Great series, I share your pain as I am rebuilding a phase 1 205XS. Did you get this running properly, sounds like your ignition timing is too far advanced. Keep going !you are nearly there.👍
Since this was released I haven't been in the shop, but I'll put some fresh gas in and see what happens. I am not sure how "off" the timing could possibly be for this to still fire and run as it does with all the things I reset back to factory.
Ignition too early.
Timing seams to be of ?
It sounds like a timing and fuel mixture issue combined. Maybe your cam timing is off?
Cam timing is locked through pins top and bottom which I double and triple checked. Hence my confusion. It does sound like timing being way off, that is true.
@@OnlyARoadtripAway Think he was refering to ignition timing. Its pinging too when you blip the throttle, atleast thats what it sounds like. So I would say either ignition timing is for whatever reason way off, or bad fuel.
Yeah heavy pinging could have the same sound but I have never experienced something like it with bad gas. It would be a lovely easy fix, but I am not usually getting the easy-out ticket. 😩😁
Let's analyse this; A car pings due to the fuel mixture being too lean @@OnlyARoadtripAway. This seems to happen as you blip the throttle. Which leads me to thinking you have a temporary lean situation. This can be a vacuum leak or slow response from your AFM. But when I said cam timing I did not mean a couple of degrees, but severely off. I might be recalling this incorrectly, but I seem to remember that when your cam timing is severely off ( and I am talking 180, 360 or 540 degrees off) you will be effectively getting compression strokes when not intended and this can sound like severe pinging.
I can answer a couple of those: Cam timing was done trough dowel pins, that can only be off by a full crank or full cam revolution, and if you plug the wires based on TDC (as I verified for that reason) you can only be 180deg off and then it doesn't start. So I know that is correct (so long there is no severe mechanical fault at hand within the engine itself). Currently the list of known or likely faults are non-functioning alternator and starter, unknown vacuum advance, unknown engine condition and to my shame unknown fuel quality. In the end it died on me which I presume means it ran out of gas (no gauge atm...). It might very well be just bad gas, but that wouldn't explain all of it and I am at the point where there is so much potential problems I might be better off just pulling the engine and going over the entire thing. The 24S has an extremely similar injection/ignition setup and I never had any of those issues, which is why I left the engine in to begin with.
Sounds like you're running lean aka not getting enough fuel, maybe clogged fuel injectors
mechanical noise, hard to start, not running on all cylinders when cold, white smoke, mechanical noise, high idle, hanging revs. I'm pretty sure that is your issue 😅
Could be a vacuum leak also letting unmetered air in
I tried shifting the mixture both ways on the AFM, pump and filter are new, injectors ultrasonic cleaned and tested with new filters. The noise gets much louder under load and it smooths out a lot when warm. Smells horrible of fuel in almost any state, starting issue also not really clearing.
It could also be the AFM being off but I don‘t know if the main engine assembly is even functioning as it should… And I am tired of trying patch-fixes here and there.
Do you have a smoke tester @@OnlyARoadtripAway? If you cam timing is good and pump + injectors are good I also think you might have unmetered air issue. The Bosch AFM's can also malfunction quite badly when the sliders/ resistance plates are worn down.
