Hi all,

Bit of a weird one this, but I've a feeling Stu can probably help

I'm a professional tech with 40 years experience. I sort out management problems for all our local garages, build rally cars, auto gearboxes etc etc.

I am on a rapid upwards learning curve regarding mapping and can use software like Bike Power Commander, Megasquirt etc and get good results
I'm not fully up to speed with EECV as I understand it uses different adresses for functions, from one ECU to the next.
I'm also very doubtful that ELM or KW will be suitable for EECV, and don't want to waste money on something not suitable.

I've built a 4X4 Ford Puma with a V6 BOB Cosworth in it, for Stage Rallying. Car is up and running reasonably well picked up 2nd place last time out.

I am using a 1997 "Ruth" ECU from a Manual V6 Mondeo on the car.
Main reason is it has no Auto Box functions that would need fooling and only uses 2 Lambdas, so again no fooling needed.
With only a few changes to the pin outs it is virtually plug and play, and the PATS works fine with the BOB Scorpio PATS Module and the Puma key coded to the Module.

I would love to take this car to Stu for a live remap, but finances and my location (NW Scotland) prohibit this.
The car runs fine, (very slightly on the rich side from a data log we did), but pulls well with no stumbles misfires etc, and timing isn't too far off, certainly no det. Cold start running is very good too. So the Mondeo V6 map isn't too far off.
It has one or 2 issues such as idling well fast cold and a bit fast hot (950 - 1000 rpm), and I would also like to lower the cooling fan on and offs as I'm running the engine (without cats) at 82 degrees, thermostat in top hose !!

What I want to know is, could someone like Stu put one of his decent stock BOB fuel and igniton tables in the Mondy ECU, and in particular, if I posted an ECU to him ?
Alternatively, could I use a J3 port plug in chip for the BOB, in this ECU or would I then get all the Auto Box stuff back cos it might be on a plug in chip?

Or can someone point me to a software package and a lead interface that would enable me to re flash my ecu via the diagnostic OBD Plug, or via the J3 (second choice that).

All advice gratefully received, but please don't guess, as I can't afford to waste money on stuff that doesn't work.

Thanks in anticipation,

Regards Dave
