Ex-Finesse Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 2L conversion starts Tuesday morning. To get the car back from the garage on Friday, I will just run it on the 1.6 ECU. I've bought a 130spec ECU from jdmsports, which doesn't have the PATS system. I plan to install this when I get the car home. Any reason why this ECU wouldn't work?? I only have the Friday night to play (as in make adjustments) with the car. Next time I see it I'll be jumping in it to go straight to Classic Ford @ POD! I anyone can shed some light on the system, or what to expect, I'd be grateful. Cheers, Ralph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markt8 Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 That ECU will probably need a different wiring loom, as i think its a different amount of pins Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
