The last one I encountered was a capri. It was built up using a spare complete 205 YB short motor that I donated, a big valve pinto head and megasquirt along with a T4 turbo.


They aint plug-and-play...they are plug-and-arse-about, lots.

Whilst in france the capri came on boost then decided it didnt like its own propshaft so it spat it out Which I and my mate (pictured) on foot

You need to figure out some way of triggering the cam phase sensor.

You need to check with a timing light the ignition pulse is correct.

Start with idle speed

If all that checks out then it needs mapping, you will need to consult an expert for that.
