The engine has no sensors for the dash other than the low oil pressure warning light as found on any zetec.
Infact there are no sensors for oil pressure or tempretue. I can only assume the ecu simulates these and sends the info to the clocks via the bus.
All the dash info comes from the ecu via can-bus.
The engine will start with very few sensors but in a limp home mode capacity.
Like I say its not if I can get it run but if it will run happy at full power. I will be using every sensor engine wise bar the canister purge so I dont see any problems.
The fuel pump is nothing special.
the one below in pic between core plugs, ps note the large port size and smaller seperating piece between each valve hole compared to what the std zetec is like;
also what about the oil cooler? do people still run them? i would like to keep it as i think it must be there because its needed, makes for tight space with the long oil filter though.
i think im going to do a full write up on these engines when im done as it seems that there isnt much info out there on these as of yet!
i want to strip engine completely but not sure how to do it correctly, how does the timing work and what about the thingy on the top of the rocker cover, what does that do and how do i remove it?
