Default 2 bar map on saf

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 .
thanks
Bam..

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

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 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.
