Re: 80% complete 172RWD! - updated

would advise you to fit a bias valve mate
nothing scaryer than being on the brakes on a slight suggestion of a corner and the back end kicking out

especially with the weight of the engine there to throw you round

give me a shout if you need any more info on the wiring

yh thanks for the info on the wiring mate.
think il move ecu and leave relays fuses in same place.
easy.
i think as it was the ecu was reading values all wrong back from all sensors:dapprove:
fly,thottle,02,cam etc etc

 

[stevo172-RWD]

Re: 80% complete 172RWD! - updated

removed all wiring due to fault chassing all the time and no starting when it feels like it!
half way through putting ecu in the rear!
if it does not work i may just save up for omex which i was going to do later anyhow!
