i put up a little post to if a 3 bar will run a 2wd saf in standard form ,it doesnt .
so ive got me a brand new 2bar as was advised this is why my saf wont start i fitted it and it dont start .
im getting major stresed out with the saf now and contemplating on chucking in the towel, ive been about 6 months now trying shit loads of things and theorys .
i realy dont want to get rid as i no its not worth anything as a none runner and cant bare the thought of it being brocken up

is there any good cosworth people out there with boxes of spares that no there stuff and willing to come to my pad please i want this sorting please.

p.s. payment ,food,and plenty of tea and coffee is no problem .

if i was closer i would of helped you out mate

 

Get it up to Blackpool on the back of a trailer if you want mate - we can have a look

 

cheers you do find with this site people are very helpfull were they can be.

 

cool an excuse to go to blackpool lol on a serious note i might take you up on that if i have no joy locally can you pm a number just in case thanks Bam

 

Very

Very well respected guys, you could do alot worse.
And blackpool is cool

 

yes blackpool is definetly cool ive got a big coat hat and gloves lol

 

 

call the AA and say you broke down then get it taken to blackpool. job done.

MSD will have your car running, guaranteed

 

What else have you changed sensor wise?

 

WHY HAVE I NEVER THOUGHT OF THINGS LIKE THAT????? Fair play Jim

 

im a high class painter never been intrested in the mechanical side of things till recently ,i so wished i had listend when i did my paint schooling on the 1 day a week we did mechanical .but that was in 1989 so f**k it.

 

good idea but i have the saf stripped out ready for paint when its running lol

 

well unfortunately youre ina rut then as like you say you need someone who actually knows what theyre on about to havea look. someon with the right equipment and knowledge (ie an RS specialist). so it means getting the car to them on a trailer the AA are the free if you blag it

 

new phase sensor
new crank sensor
new map sensor
used ecu
3rd set of new plugs
had the injector rail off and turned it over its spirting fuel .
had rocker cover off to set timing properly making sure its not 180 out
towed it round the streets lol
swore at it
said please to it even left garage light on at night .

 

Are you getting a spark?

 

If you're in mansfield then we are only 10 minutes away from you. We will certainly be able to sort it for you. Hope that helps in case you can't get it sorted.

 

i was just thinking tht as he hasnt mentioned it

really only 4 thing sleft to check lol

ecu
loom
coil
igntion amp

but id get it upto a specialist mate, karl or msd will both get it running in no time

 

oooh, use karl then if its only 10mins away!

google "norris motorsport"

 

have you got the 2 earth leads bolted on to the inlet manifold?

 

do you do home visits or have i got to lug it over to you mate.

 

err err i think i can remember bolting wires to the inlet will check thou thanks.

 

yes got a spark a mate has also checked the leads ,ive replaced engine loom,coil twice (to make sure lol ) second hand amp from pete rs specialist,and a second hand ecu but with used parts i no theres no garantee there ok

 

have you had the engine apart or anything like that?

if i was closer i'd help

if not get it over to the guy Karl who posted above, his company is Norris Motorsport -

 

I always say this and I always will, check all the loom connections are in probably! My old cossy was being a right shit ages ago, Found one of the loom plugs wasn't connected correctly. It was one of the ones at the back of the engine which connects the engine loom into the main loom.

 

i bought the engine off ebay it was already removed but he said it was running and had just been serviced its doing my head in big time lol

 

get it over to norris if you cant sort it

mine was stood for 11 years and it took me 45 mins to get it started. We got it started with a hint of "easy start" you tried that?

 

not tried that herd they get addicted to it sounds a bit silly to me but im superstitious
