does anyone have the spring spec they used for the pedal? I am having the same issue.

Do you have a multi meter? Probably going to need one! Might be a bad earth somewhere. It's normally a bad earth somewhere! I feel for the amount of problems you're having dude. My cars been sat for 14 years and it somehow seems to have less problems thank you!

Do you know which pin? Running a gen90 ECU? And if it's on the live or the earth? Immediate next question would be where the ECU gets it's switch live into pin29. I assume this comes from the UCH to go via the immobiliser check?

Had a bit of a go at dissecting this but it's pretty confusing. Is there anyone good at reading these to talk to? I basically want to know where the signal wire for the coil/pump relay comes from. Does it come from the ECU or the UCH? Alternatively is there a control on the earth of the relay...

Wheels up or down shouldn't make a difference, nor should the lack of box oil. Does it go up and down easily but not front to back? What about at the neutral height, can you push it back and forward for 3rd and 4th respectively?

Clutch is normally pretty heavy as they cable. I think, just to keep the peace, you need to drop the linkage and try and select the gears on the box manually. Just to shut everyone up!

what do you mean "on the floor"? If you mean with the vehicle on its wheels I'd say impossible. Never done one with the engine in, you might be able to half drop the subframe and get it out the side but someone will have to confirm. You'll also need to find a way to support the engine while...

I've always found FrogJam extremely quick if you pay express delivery. Normally next day. Alternatively them may sell you singles or just give you the length if you ask nicely. They've always been very helpful for me.

Sitting flush is what people have found you should not do. It should be a little bit proud. Here is my final installation. It has not leaked... yet

If it makes you feel any better I'm pretty sure my box is going to pop as soon as I get out on track, it's the only thing I've not rebuilt at this point. Someone is selling jc5-129 with LSDs on here 👀 If you do as much of the work yourself you'll at least be left with something close to...

You've really been thrown in the deep end with this car haven't you! Feel for you mate but you'll be a much more knowledgeable enthusiast at the end if you stick with it!

oo amazing, thanks! When i have time I will definitely have a full dig.

I don't suppose anyone has a wiring diagram showing the following wires: The 12v for the exciter wire into the alternator The 12v switch live into the coilpack/fuel pump relay I assume at least the second one of these comes from the UCH as it need to pass the immobiliser test.

Should there not be a simple switch live to the ECU that should turn off with the key turn?

So cleaned up the alternator earth so you now get >0.1ohm between the casing and the earth strap. The problem where the ignition stays on (engine off) has now disappeared. Ran a new earth for the coil pack relay and expected everything to be perfect but again, key off when the engine is...
