| I have RJES converted loom, there are 2 wires, male and female ends labelled NPS. At the moment i have earthed the black wire . The other wire is not connected to anything. What do i do with this wire ? Its an EG33 loom so it came from an auto box car. |

Cali. Were there instructions from Rich?
I'm gonna 2 nd guess him here.
Grab a meter and buzz out the black wire to an earth tag. You should have continuity. If so join the nps wires together.
Hopefully job done. But you should really speak to rich
Ping, can't see other post now (using phone). Just earth that wire (it won't be black) _________________ The advice you receive on here is worth the paper it's written on.

Rich did my brothers svx loom and it needed the NPS earthing. Simply connecting the two wires marked nps did it, black is the earth.
Sounds like yours doesn't like the NPS earthed so just leave it unconnected, earthing the black wire is pointless your just earthing an earth.
Rich wires the looms like that for just this reason, some engines like it earthed and some don't.
Have you had it out yet? Lets have a look at some pictures then  _________________ 1989 VW Magnum Multivan EZ30 |

If you have no idle issues then just leave it. _________________ 1989 VW Magnum Multivan EZ30 |

| Its a stalling problem that is the annoying thing ! It goes well but occasionally when slowing down at the end of a run it stalls . I have a Vehicle speed sensor fitted due to lots of stalling at first. There are no error codes at the moment. I have just had to replace the original EG33 due to a lash adjuster noise, its a good job i had a spare 3.3 ! I will get some photos soon of the beast , its got a pair of sexy silencers ! |

You confusing me now, you said earlier that you had no stalling issues with nps not earthed. _________________ 1989 VW Magnum Multivan EZ30 |
