From my previous experience of owning a Chim, is there any downloadable software to a PC similar to the Rovergauge diagnostic tool that will be compatible to the S?

I found Rovergauge was brilliant at analysing the realtime fuelling as well as flagging fault codes so, is there an equivalent for our cars??

BTW, thanks to the PH member known as blitzracing for all his good advise and supplying the cable connection for the Rover 14CUX ECU clap

If you have a V8S then you should get this asap!! wink

Thanks Ray, I should have been clearer.

I am talking about the Cologne V6/ Ford ECU. I'll take a look at the suggested 'Star' tester although I was hoping that someone had decoded the software as has happened with the Rover ECU which is not just a fault code reader but gives the 'realtime' fuelling condition that tells you more than just a static test.

Hi Alan, many thanks for your kind offer. I will send you a pm. I was hoping that someone had reverse engineered the Ford ECU software as the Rovergauge boys (and blitz) had achieved but, alas, it seems not!

Been following your posts on the S1 rebuild and as I recall you did a similar job on your Chim; didn't you convert it to LPG?
