ive only recently bought this rs. engine was ballsed so kept my mfi managment and with the help of the sandwich gasket on the inlet bought a efi block and head that had undergone a fair bit of internal work and was running cossy managment (they didnt want to sell me the cossy stuff!)

so basically the cold start was disconnected before we changed the engine.
other than the long crank time before firing it runs sweat as nut so im guessing meter head is ok... Although it wont hurt to check it out.

think ill join up the cold start valve and sort out the spliced in brown plug and see what happens, I guess I can always unplug it again.

im still stumped as to why someone spliced the brown connector to the blue cold start connector???

correct me if im wrong but the brown connector plugs in directly under the inlet manifold, which I presume is a water temp sender for something, would this be ecu temp sensor, I only ask as I can't see a yellow connector which from reading is what should be there somewhere???

thanks for the help everyone.
