ive got an escort van thats running a zetec turbo lump and 4x4, its running off a cos L6 ecu! its all up and running now but seems to be firing way too much fuel in resulting in much popping, farting and smoking! the injectors its running are jamsport spec 370cc but the chip in the ecu is one of those autopoint jobs off ebay i think! does anyone know which chip would better suit the injectors or am i barking up the wrong tree?

 

Sounds interesting mate, what 4x4 system does it run?

 

its mondeo 4x4 underneath! i bought it that way for 900 quid but only just got it going! just need to sort this fueling then it should be a good un!

 

There could be as you suspect a mismatch between chip and engine spec, but another thing worth checking is the phase sensor alignment, if this is just 1 tooth out it will overfuel massively belching black soot etc, then there is our old favourite the cts, coolant temp sensor, replace this anyway unless new, when these go duff as they do they mostly go silly rich, but are only around Ł12 for a new one.
If these two prove ok, try adjusting the fuel pressure down to see if it gets to a point it is nice an clean, most chips work with std pressure but not all so try checking the chip with the maker to see what pressure etc it needs.

pics please!!! sounds cool

 

• ok ive checked out the autopoint chip and its to used with bosch yellow injectors! possibility?
• the phase sensor pick up on the cam seems fine but there has been another pickup added to the cam so its picking up twice!?? why?
• the water temp sensor is new!
• pics up soon!

 

the phase sensor needs to see four pulses i think mate as cos had a distributor
