My name is Ted Mauro, I live in Clemson, SC USA and I have just purchased a TVR. I am trying to get the engine running and I have had some problems with the fuel injection. I have found someone to rebuild the injector but I still need a engine sensor.
I have been looking for a Engine Run Sensor for a TVR Tasmin 280i (Part Number: ENGINE RUN SENSOR AV1461 - ENGINE TYPE 2.8 Litre German Ford V6 with a Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection). I have had no luck (so far) so I am now considering using a weber conversion kit to replace the whole intake system. Does anyone have any information about making this change? How successfull is this change? Does it effect the price of the automoble? What kit would I use for this type of TVR?
As you can tell I am new to this. Thank you for any help you can offer!

New and 2nd hand parts are readily available in the UK as far as I am aware. The engine was used in a large number main stream Fords.

Ted,
Before you give up on your current injection setup,
contact David-Gerald TVR (www.davidgeraldtvr.com)
to see if they can provide the senor you are seeking.
They have been quite helpful with my Tasmin
over the last year.
