There's a section on here www.rsbible.co.uk Double click on the Escort S2 section and there's a tab for EFi conversion.

Another thing that may help, A mate i sold a FRST engine to put it in a XR2i a while back and just changed the engine loom via a main plug and just change the ECU and it ran fine, The only thing it didn't have was the wiring for the Amal valve which is no big issue,

Could just get a full XR3i EFi loom and do the same.

If you want to use a Fiesta loom:



Or as said use a full EFI XR3i loom

hej safechav,

Is that the wiring diagram to connect the ofaB loom to the car ?
So this means, I dont need the XR3i loom?
And the original RS Turbo mk4 loom, and fusebox, what should I do with that...how do I connect it, or dis-connect it.

Hope you can help me out...I now have a complete loom from fiesta Turbo ofab,but now I dont now how to go on with the engine loom connector.

Yes you can connect in a FRST loom.

I couldnt tell you exactly what to do with your loom etc because it is a very long process removing all the redundant wiring.

But in a nut shell if you remove everything from the loom connected to the 2 ECU plugs on the Mk4 RS loom thats pretty much that, and then you can join in the fiesta loom.

A Mk4 EFI loom is a better way to do it in my opinion though.
