I would check that the wiring is ok/wired correctly

Small update on the Extra - wired in the lc-1 to the ecu on Sunday and refitted the dash cowlings. Give the interior a decent clean, first time in years, still in decent nick. Just waiting for my engine stand to be returned then i can get the new engine stripped. Might even make CS Festival...

Gearbox oil is horrible stuff. If you get it on your skin the stink hangs about for ages

Eibach sportline are decent. Avoid apex as the ride is awful.

Check everything is tight & top mounts are fitted correctly, check balljoint/trackrod ends for wear etc

As far as im aware you can only program a virgin uch with clip to suit another ecu/immobiliser. I guess if you had key to suit uch you could get somewhere to reset the ecu immobiliser, but still most likely cheaper to buy a working full set.

I did indeed buy the renfort from gt performance via ebay. The circlip does not fit with the plate on, you need the spacer ring though.

The ecu, key and uch are matched so wont work unless you swap immobiliser chip from old uch. Get the old one repaired or buy a full set to suit the correct engine.

Cheers mate? Not done much more over the hols as been giving the mancave a clean up & paint. Just need to shift some spares to my other lockup then its engine building time. All the cars out for the first time in years

I had exactly the same issue for months, misfire like feck from cold and misfire on and off when driving. Turned out to be an injector same as yours as it died one day and ran on 3 cylinders. Id bet it is an injector on its way.

I made this to tension the manual tensioner. Without it i could not get it tight enough as nowhere to get the bar in.

Looks awesome mate ?

From when i stripped the intercooler off the scrap late model dci i believe it had a vnt turbo, so probably same as dci 100. Injectors and pump had gone sadly so no idea about them.

Give the vmware a blast first, if the usb works ok your laughing. My acer laptop would not have it, typically a known issue with this brand.

Thats the one ! Prob map ok

A bit of fault finding today, found a loose connection on the earth wire for the crank sensor, fixed that and fitted a new genuine ford zetec sensor. I had a feeling it was ign related the other day, it revs great now although a little bit lean. Not messing about with map yet, will change fuel...

Miss that sound but wont be long until its back on the road ?

Will be fine running next to tunnel. Use ptfe/teflon for the fuel hoses or it will stink & the prices of the fittings are eye watering if you need a few.

Looks class now its lowered. My dad had a 360glt when i was a kid, fond memories of it

Buy full chip one about £120 off ebay. You wont get the software working easily on win10 64 bit, the drivers are not supported. You will need xp or win7 32bit, which can be run on a virtual machine, however i found the usb connection to be sketchy, so picked up an old xp laptop and use it for...

Later campus came with an intercooler as stock, same setup as dci 100.

Its fairly straightforward, you will need to add all the wiring though as the loom is very basic in the extreme. Doing it to mine soon got almost all the parts in stock.

Class get them up if you have mate

No Kangoo updates however have been working on my Extra van, a few of you may remember it from when ive had it on track at the CS festivals a couple of years back. To cut a long story short the engine was getting a little bit tired a couple of years ago so took it off the road. Started...

The colour is Malaga orange, code is Ted33, its a different shade compared to inferno. Mine is the same model extreme3. Extremely povo spec as stock no rear speaker wiring, no external temp etc. I have sport front grill in mine, xenons, retrofitted a couple of electronic bits - external temp...

Sound that, same colour and spec as mine. A couple of cheapo 172 upgrades and your away

Great engine when looked after, mine is on 142k and doesnt really use any oil. Avoid anything that wont start, chucking out blue smoke or mega mileage/unloved and you will be fine. Most mk2’s are astronomical mileage now so choose carefully, most people do not service them or nowt as just a...

Plug it in to clip and check fuel pressure etc mate

Decent repair. Dont forget to treat the inside, decent coat of zinc primer then cavity wax or whatever so it doesnt come back
