Its of a FRST OFAB and sits behind the Jack on the right hand side of the engine bay, Looks knackered as the 2 yellow wires have been joined together rather than going to the unit has always been like this and runs lumpy once unplugged,

Any Ideas as i would like to know why it has been joined up this way

Cheers Seb

 

is it off the abs ??

 

Nah no ABS on the car, don't think so anyway as it affects cars idle and running

 

Could be a surpressor, BERU normally make ignition components.
tabetha

 

OK so why would he have the yellow wires just shorted together, and why would it make the car run so lumpy, could it just control the igition system or something simular

 

The black connector looks very similar to the speed sensor connection I had on my Escort.

 

Octane/Idle adjuster plug most probably.....

 

Yeah maybe i seen on the wiring diagram that there is a octance adjustment thing on that side of the wing but i've never heard of one before or what and how they adjust things, maybe

 

Just had a look at the wiring diagram again and they should be brown yellow, brown black and brown red, But i have brown yellow, brown, yellow so not sure if its the octane adjust

 

Ok i've notiched that its only affects the running of the engine weather it be plugged in or not when warm when cold on choke etc, it doesn't seem to make much on a difference on idle that is anyway, gonna try connecting it up propaly and seeing the Difference will let you know tommorrow, Any more ideas in the mean time would be great

Cheers SEB

 

belive its suppressor linked to the map sensor i think .

it says abit about it on rsbible

 

Cheers mate looks like you might have solved gonna go for a test run tommorrow cheers
