as i think i said above we have already tried another ecu in it and that didnt solve the problem, still got nothing out of it, its all of the wiring that goes into the ecu thats confusing us and making us think thats the problem is in the wiring because some wires which are supposed to have an earth havent got one, if you follow some wires along to the end they just go to a connector which doesnt plug into anything what so ever but according to the owner they have always been like that and thats how its been since he had the car and it ran fine before.

if i can get me a digi cam then i will take some pics of it.
