Is there anyone on here that has good knowledge with fitting and wiring up the ECU .
I have some issues with one I have fitted and need advice to find if its knackered .
Fitted it to a 182 with throttle bodies , it's been mapped .
More so than not it doesn't start and I've checked all my...
So long as the resistor is still in place on the fan unit and in circuit - the fan switch will work fine .
Just connect the 1st switch output to the slowest speed and work through to 2nd and 3rd.
As its a 3 speed position - you choose what you want speed wise to work .
I have one of those in my box , these are ok , but avoid quick and abrupt gear changes as the throw is shorter and the syncro's will take a beating more so as such . I've been gentle with mine and all is good so far .
Had it in for about 6 years now .
The differences are K4M has oval/square ish outlets and F4R has round isn't it ?
If the 172/182 mini is the same width then it probably wouldn't be restricted .
I'd try the K4M gasket against the F4R mani
K4M doesn't have any springs at all . It's a flat mated flange manifold to down pipe , the flexy joint takes up the movement .
K4m exhaust outlets on the head are different to those of 172 , 182 .
Pretty much doubt it'll fit .
If you read this thread - the fella had to make his own exhaust...
I suspect maybe a break in the loom mate .
You'll need to do a pin check on the loom .
They give trouble where the loom runs over the gearbox in that plastic bit.
I've just read your Pm
Is it me , the gearbox looks broken in the pic . ? Hope it is ok
As a general rule - the seal goes in dry , wipe clean and install . Normally get a build up of brass that lifts the seal . [emoji33]
A little tip when you come across seized brake lines where the pipe meets the flexy. As you are changing them to new braided it doesn't matter what happens now to the original one . Many have had to have been cut and then cut along the outer metal part where the pipe and union go into it . Doing...
That's good results from "cheepy"s lol.
I have no idea what mine is power wise with the RS2 , would like to get it dyno'd at some point in the future .
Ahh not a total loss then.
260bhp out of the pump - that must shift , mind you 400bhp odd out the focus = fun .
Bedford is approaching fast , any last minute jobs on the Clio or are you all good ?
Recently ordered the item and it wasn't what I thought it was , temp sensors are quite long in length and this was shallow .
My dialemia now is , I know jack sh*t about UNF or AN and all that . So I'm after some advise .
I measured my union output from my oil cooler sandwich plate and it as...
