Ok putting a 1.8 130 spec zetec in my escort 1.6. Im keeping loom, sensors etc. but what ecu should i use? will it work on 1.6 ecu? cheers

 

No, you need the ecu from the donor car or use an aftermarket ecu.

 

1.6 ecu will work, wont be much cop though as you ideally need a 130 spec one, depends what kind of loom you have, it its internal edis at the moment you need a CULT ecu and if its external edis you want a 2FBC or 2FDC ecu from a rs1800 or mk5 escort xr3i. Depending on what year it is, if you have PATS on your car this will limit your chioces further without a lot more wiring

 

Ok as far as im aware it does have PATS, its a 1998 escort.

How will i know if it has external EDIS?

Can the 1.6 ecu be re-mapped?
