multimeter black probe on pin 1 of the ecu, red probe on pin17

should read

<0.35 v at closed throttle

Pleased you got it sorted Chris, well done James good work.

Steve

Ryan · 18-03-2010, 01:04 AM

also might be worth changing your oil as well, as i would imagine bore wash might have happened and alot of fuel is now in the oil.

glad you've found the problem.

dont get on here much at all anymore but wanted to see how you were getting on and glad to see james has found the problem

**Stu @ M Developments** · 18-03-2010, 10:09 AM

Good work James, and good work Stu for paying him overtime to come and help out a good customer free of charge.

I would DEFINATELY change the oil before you run it in anger mate, that oil will be very contaminated now.

RONNIE AMIS · 18-03-2010, 10:17 AM

Many thanks Stu absolutely A+ service from MSD

still can't believe how much fuel was just pouring into the inlet

The oil is going be dropped today twice (minimum) then some good stuff, just off to collect a new filter

All back together with a replacement regulator cheers Mark (if you still get on here)

steviecossie · 18-03-2010, 02:30 PM

Superb News Chris, AT LAST!

M K · 18-03-2010, 07:15 PM

Great news its sorted fella

i had a fuel pressure reg collapse on my turbo engine, bloody nightmare!

it actually hydraulic'd the engine totally, lucky no real damage, but inlet was full of petrol along with the intercooler

all hoses etc, the sump was full so needed new oil as it was like water etc,

new pressure reg fitted and new oil and drain the cooler and inlet and a new set of plugs and she was good as new

took us ages to figure it out too untill we put a fuel pressure gauge on a it was reading around 20 bar

the 2 grp a pumps i had feeding the rail even deformed the alloy swirlpot there was that much pressure.

BRAMMER · 18-03-2010, 08:32 PM

The clean up operation starts tomorrow - intercooler's coming off, and the oil is dropped and another oil session and filter to clean through then put the good stuff in with a new Ford filter.

It actually fires on the button and for the few seconds i ran it it pours and is very quiet

AGAR-COSWORTH · 18-03-2010, 08:40 PM

Glad to see you found the source of the problem - i'm sure you'll enjoy it even more now once it works again.

I'll give you a pat on the back in the absence of anyone else acknowledging you were in fact correct in your diagnosis.

Chris, I am glad your car is on the mend as it is a cracker, like eh?! As they say round your way.

BRAMMER · 19-03-2010, 04:00 PM

Run new oil though it, well 15 litres so i think its finally cleaned out - smokes slightly but no wonder with what's gone through the turbo & exhaust, theirs black syrup oozing out of the gaskets/downpipe and crisping so it wants a good run though but i might get the blower rebuilt in July now.

Finally out the garage after 6 months -

KSA-Cossie · 19-03-2010, 05:35 PM

You'd have been crazy to get rid of it chris,one of THE best 3dr's out there m8.

Steve

steviecossie · 19-03-2010, 07:23 PM

really love the look of this car mate.

it's a nightmare when there not running right and you just want rid, but when there running good your feelings totally change for them

you would've regretted getting rid of it

[quote=BRAMMER;4797243]Cheers James i have a couple of regs sorted so i should have it up and running tomorrow night.

Fuel backed up to the throttle

Over flowing onto the garage floor, £119.9p per litre on the floor

£119.9p a litre christ i thought i payed a lot at £1.19p

hitchwest · 20-03-2010, 11:58 PM

R5FORD · 21-03-2010, 12:19 AM

Chris glad its sorted mate.. Looks good now go and enjoy it

BRAMMER · 24-03-2010, 03:50 PM

Small update -

The car is all back together and seems to be running fine, it actually ticks over better than it did last year so a trip to the Blackpool in a couple of weeks will iron out any minors issues then i'll get a power run done for this spec

Few goodies have been arriving in the post over the past week.

First thing to sort was the brakes - With the CXN's restricting the size of brakes i can run i opted for a set AP 4 pots which are needng a refurb and D+G 324mm FRS discs as i shouldn't need to run spacers on the front as their mm's off the arches as they are.

And a set of verniers, i've been wanting a pair for ages but never got around to buying some so snapped these up off Graham Hathaway

And the Graham Goode gauges fitted - just need to wire the illumination up and the VOLT gauge (should be fun as i'm NO sparky

)
