hope everyone is having a good christmas,hope you all arnt drinking too mutch,unlike my car who has decided too drink in excess,ie about 8mpg and has a case of the hicccups up to around 2300rpms .when shees hot(90deg)this disapears.she is spitting out of boath exorsts.
dose any one have any sugestions(prefurabily related too her anti sociable behavior)
please can any one supply me with the id for the ecu conectors and relavent meter readings so i can check out the sensors,
she has recently had her injector rail off to replace starter and a fuel pump swap what pressure should this run at?
any constructive sugestions would be greatfully received,(unlike my bright red jumper)

Not sure if you can interogate the ecu with a meter, only a laptop. I've got the program if you need it, will be at Shaftoes in Jan if you can wait that long.

hi byff,most of the signals should come back to the ecu,and should in theory be able to pick up from the conector once its removed from the brain ,i think.
im going to take her to work ,turn the central heating on,stick the probe up her rear end,check hcs&co levels,find water temp sender and replace with 300 ohm risister,.
ive also got a snap on fault code reader so might try to get in to her that way but dont know what lead is compatable.
ive never used a computer link up to read the ecu as im a total computer novice but am game to have a play.
hows yours behaving? nice photo of her on the north east ph calinder.

If you get the lead, i'll bring the laptop to shaftoes. I think it's just a RS232 lead with an added gubbins type thing on it. Might be worth doing a search for someone that knows what they are talking about.
