Got one at an incredible price...great service

Question to anyone that knows!

Looking at it from the top its got an injector type connecter and to outlets behind this one either side.

1.....Does it matter on this what amal electrical connection goes where?(using a 2wd Amal at present)

2.....I understand that you put a pipe from compressor to actuator and put in a t-piece between this with that pipe going to amal and then the other outlet goes top atmosphere,does it matter which way round?

ImaRacing 700

Anyone?

foreigneRS

1) normally not. it doesn't matter what the polarity is on a simple coil (unless there is a freewheel diode connected)

2) no idea. let us know if you find out. will be getting one to use with a S8 as boost control some time, same as you. let us know if it does what you want boost vs. rpm wise.

Jim Galbally

eh? i thought that the esccos amal valve looked the same as a normal one? and the FRST one was the 2 port type?

or did mike sell me a saph amalvalve and just told me it was esccos? lol

if so i've sold it on advertised as an esccos one by accident

iTrader: (1)

this is an escos one i think

ImaRacing 700

Well done Spikey..i can see what i need to know

Jim....Mike didnt know owt about an Escos one as he told me it needed jetting like the normal 3 port one!!!!!It uses NO jets!!!

Jim Galbally

are the small turbo and large turbo ones different maybe?

ImaRacing 700

Yeah Jim maybe they are......i just asked for an Escos Amal valve and was told they are 2 port.

Dave Henshall

here is the pic of mine as i took it off the pipes have not been moved form the position off the car. (big turbo model)

ImaRacing 700

Cheers Dave!...I got it right...do you know wether it should click when you put the ignition on?Cause mine does...LOL.

Jon ERST S2

yes it should click.

Dave Henshall

once or continually,? it should just click once

ImaRacing 700

Just the once!!!!

The valve is a 2port unit controlling a "Bleed Off" system.

The valve must be introduced into teh pipework closer to teh turbo than the actuator and must also be jetted in the T-Piece to allow a pressure stall in the pipework. I suggest you use the genuine Ford "T" for this purpose.

ALL Escos use this system.

ImaRacing 700

????Sorry Stu you lost me...Spiky pic dont look to close?????

Any idea what size jet??..and what outlet of t-peice has the jet?

Dave Henshall

i know the T piece has jets in the ports of it, not measured them though.

ImaRacing 700

So go to Ford and buy the t-piece and hopefully it will come jetted!

Dave Henshall

hmmm , dunno. ill let u know if its shown on microcat first as a item or whether its all part of the solenoid//////

ImaRacing 700

Cheers mate

Dave Henshall

pipe with t piece finis code = 6909194.

straight pipe (the other side) = 6737450.

ImaRacing 700

so is that everything i need?

I bet thats gonna cost some!

Glad you got it ok ,, and thanks for the kind words

Dave Henshall

its listed as a current item, interstingly though the lektron valve is cheaper than the t piece pipe (WTF?!?!) , you'll need to ring a dealer, the prices on my mircocat are a metric mile out

foreigneRS

have you got the finis code for the valve itself please dave?

Dave Henshall

doh, at work now, will get it 2nite when im back at home

foreigneRS

cheers mate
