Hello.

I have a 1.9L CVH motor that came out of a 1990 US Escort GT. The motor was built with custom intake, porting/polish, cam, adjustable cam gear, rollers, forged internals, turbo, blah blah blah.

I believe it is similar to the Euro 1.6L CVH.

Was wondering what everyone is using to run these engines when they build them beyond the capabilities of the stock ECU/Carb???

BACKGROUND: The motor was built almost 2 years ago and I spent several months trying to get the darn thing to run using a Mega Squirt ECU. I have fuel, ignition, compression, etc. Have gone thru two Mega Squirt units, several coils, several distributors, wires, plugs, etc. I was unable to get the engine to fire and gave up. I would like to try once more to get this motor running before I move on. I have ran several other distributor equipped Ford engines over the years on a Mega Squirt, every single one was a pain to get running and trouble shoot. If I can not get this motor running, I was going to get a newer non-distributor version of the 1.9L, transfer some parts over and run it on a different ECU and just live with less HP.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks

Adam
