found out what the problem was, it was the loom, had to move two injector pins on the ecu

connector and it now runs!

 

 

it is running a bit rich because i haven't got the lambda sensor connected yet, as i need a plug

for it. you can probably hear in the vid that it's abit loud but thats because it's in the garage.

will get another video when it's outside. just need to get a lambda plug and a MK6 tps plug.

 

also found this when routing the loom through in to the car:

got hold of a 1.8 MK1 mondeo ecu, so fitted that and fitted a 1.8 throttle body, also found a

lambda sensor connector whilst looking for some thing else (always the way!) and done a temp

connection with that, and swapped the idle speed control valve and injecot number 4 plugs over

(same colour wires) and it fired up and ran fine, doesn't smell of petrol now so will run it like

that. just need to sort the alternator out and bleed the brakes. also noticed that the rev counter

is reading double what it should, so will have to get some MK5 zetec clocks to swap the rev

counter over.

cleaned the seat belts, door cards, backs of the front seats and steering wheel as they had gone

mouldy from the car beeing sat up. then refitted the interior so it looks like a car again, just need

to hoover it out and get some more cleaner as i've run out and do all the plastics. only a couple

more jobs and it will be ready for the road.
