Does look very interesting Tunnie, looks like you've got enough assorted parts to be building a second car  Grin
If you fancy a hand, i.e with the easy stuff liking making the tea I'm more than happy to pop over for a bit  Cheesy


Not my place to say yes... But Tunnie assures me there's plenty of Bacon butties to be cooked Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Grin Grin

Be nice to meet you Thumbs Up!


Your very welcome Josh, need someone to load the BBQ with bacon  Grin

Seriously though your welcome to pop down if your not doing anything  Thumbs Up!


Mmmm bacon  Cheesy
That sounds about the right skill level for me.
If you don't mind, I'll pop down if I've got some free time...what sort of time?


All day... I should be there by 9 at the latest, traffic permitting

Do you break V6's as often as TheBoy? Then you need tunnie's towing services, recovery costs are just the humiliation of being towed by 2/3's of an engine

Just a quick one. Might well be a stupid question:

I assume it's a Z22XE with Simtec management?

TIS seems to show a Motronic diagram too. Undecided

OK. Pinouts for SIMTEC:

+12v ignition switched feed   Black X84 Pin 64
Tachometer                          Green X84 Pin 62
Mixture control Lambda         X83 Black Pin 57 signal pin
                                            X83 Grey  Pin 8 ground pin

If you look at the routing of the looms from the ECU X83 is the connector where the loom heads round the engine itself. X84's loom heads through the bulkhead into the car.

I think the Lambda sensor pin you want is pin 57 but I've included pin 8 in case I've got them the wrong way round.

The ECU connectors are a bit dense so I find the best way is to find the pin on the connector, trace the correct coloured wire from that pin up the loom a little and scrape the insulation and solder there then insulate. 

You might need to solder in connections to the petrol injectors as the connectors are part of the cable tray that sits over the injectors.

Yep. Just saw some references in TIS to Y22XE and a motronic ECU.
