For ayone who stumbles accross this thread in the future with the same issue, as above Move Pin 68 to Pin 9. Although Pin 9 already as a wire going to it so just need to remove it and ignore it.

I’ll message you first before I book it in in case you’d re free haha. But yeah, give me a week to make sure on its actually ready to be booked in with the rough af idle as I don’t want to get there and be like them day “nahh can’t map this it’s s**t”

Me too!! Want to be a bit more confident with it before I’ll get it booked in. And I’ll speak with EFI first to see what they say about common things that go wrong when mapping so I can check first. But it has new everything so I’m hopeful it will be ok

Fitted the trumpets and the cover in the ECU wires. Engine bay looks proper smart now! Still undecided if I want to run the air filter or just get some mesh to sandwich behind the trumpets to stop any of the big debris. Had it idling for a bit longer while I dropped it off the little caravan...

Sure I saw that Clio for sale many years ago

Ok so this happened today after work It works!! We’ll sort of. Runs proper rough, has no idle and smokes a lot. And those with a keen eye will spot a wire from the battery in the passenger window that goes to the fuel pump as for some reason it won’t get a feed so it has got a constant...

Went to start my Ph1 172 or the first time after fitting the ITB's. It has a GEN90 ECU in it now and as per the instructions I got from KTec I swapped the ECU pins around. I am told the ECU came wth a base map on it. When I came to start it, turned the ignition on and the fuel pump did not...

Spare half hour today so I did some finishing jobs. The p-clips for the fuel return line arrived so fitted them. It is a lot tidier now and managed to cable tie the hose out of the way of the alternator belt I took some inspiration from when I had RC cars and putting the electronics inside...

Not washed my E60 for about 6 weeks. Did about 700miles on the motorway in a week, most of which were in torrential rain. Then I left it at Heathrow last weekend and it was a bit grim. It was all sticky and that from jet fuel residue. Hard to get photos of how grim it was I caved in today...

Nice one thanks. It was either your truck or borrow a trailer and tow it but I have never towed anything before so would be a little nervious doing it as my first time. Not going to get any more time on it for a few weeks though now but the one thing to do it put the new ECU in.

I’ll take a read later. But I’ve been told by KTec that once I move the pins in the ECU connector about (gave me a diagram) then it should fire into life….should. Mine has a base map and enough to get it running to get it up to temp to check before mapping. I won’t be able to drive it but hoping...

Two more jobs ticked off the list this weekend. Didn't have a lot of time over the weekened but I could have done it in one day if I didn't have to go out this morning. Throttle cable now attached and works. Got a nice feel to the pedal too. Was a right pain to do! But that is what you get...

Spent some time this morning ticking off a few more jobs on the list: New throttle cable fitted (this definately wasn't done while I was on a work call with my laptop in the garage and just listening on headphone....honest) - although it isn't attached to the throtle boddies yet Wired up the...

I've fallen off my bike a few times and mine didn't bat an eyelid. Used a hammer and thought I fell over and was trying to contact my emergency contacts! Didn't realise it was doing this right until the last moment and managed to stop it.

Battery is still in the standard place, I haven't thought about moving it yet but might do one day. You are right it would free up loads of space. Actually had it out the ther day and without that and the front slam pannel it is quite spacious in there! The bracket thing where you have got yours...

Same. Love old crap like that. Far more interesting. I see a Rover 220 a lot around where I live.

You need to have the passenger switch plugged in on the drivers side to get the passenger switch to work on the passenger side. No idea why they thought that was a good idea

Progress has been slow, not helped with the bad weather and waiting on some parts. A catch tank, PMS breather plate, fuel pressure regulator housing and new 4bar pressure regulator and a KTec fuel rail turned up With a break in the weather yesterday and some help from my brother to fit the...

I need to mount my catch tank and struggling to get ideas. I have removed the air box strap mounting thing by the battery so was thinking of adding a second bolt hole on the battery cover so it is a bit more sturdy and then putting the catch tank onto that somehow Just had a look now and it...

Putting a new headlight on my E60, replacement didn’t come with any of the ballast stuff for the xenon’s. Not a problem the ones I have are still working so will swap them over…..however it won’t fit Even the mounting points are wrong. Quick google and I can’t find out what I need. The one I...

I spent my money on ITBs instead 🙃 Although I did look around for leadlights for my other car as they were broken and TYC came up a decent brand (the article I found online was replacing an E60 M5 headlights for TYC ones and they said the wuality was good for the price). So when I get around...

I had some that looked like Bosch Aero ones from the Range on an old beater I had many years ok. Were alright for what I paid for, which was about £5 per blade.

Amazing! Looking at the bottom of the first spread sheet I just need to match the colours of the wires up….but my KTec TPS doesn’t have those colours (of course it doesn’t!!), it has green, red and black and not pink, grey and orange. Unless @barnesautos knows what the ph2 pin out on its TPS...

You are a saviour if you do!!!

Which was does fuel flow into the rail? Is it from left to right? So the FRP is at the exit of the rail? As the FPR housing I have bought from PMS has a directional arrow on it so need it to be the right way around. I don't really fancy priming the fuel pump with nothing connected to see which...

Thanks for taking a look, appreciate it. I’m tempted to just directly wire the loom to the sensor and make my own connector. Do you know the wiring of the plug so I can cut mine about? Looks like there are more wires on the Ph2 plug. Also KTec are trying to find a solution, have admitted it’s...

I just want to swap the loom plug for a Ph2 one to fit the new one Ktec have supplied. Their response was "The quickest solution is to cut the plug from your standard wiring loom and put in a Ph2 plug". So you are saying this can't be done? I just want to swap my top picture plug to whatever the...

I need to either splice a new throttle position sensor onto my Ph1 loom or swap the throttle position sensor from a Ph2 to my Ph1 loom. I am struggling to find a wiring diagram. Any help? So I need to go from this Ph1 loom plug: To this throttle position sensor: I would prefer to use a...

Where did you have the hose thing to go to? As the standard one it goes to behind the butter fly valve in the throttle body. Is it just a vent? As I will be running a catch tank so could just pipe it to that. My brother is about to turn up and he is going to help me choose the parts for the...

Felt a bit of two steps forward and one back today. Decided to take the throttle cable out ready for a new one only to be greeted with what looks like a hack job of refitting the arch liner. There was a random self tapping screw in the inner arch that looked like at one point held the liner in...
