Steve Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 Could try resetting the ECU, then going for drive to see if that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 Always worth a try. If not could be a faulty FCD as mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Pizza-Tosser Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 I seem to remember someone testing a Thor FDC and finding it modulated some nasty square wave onto the map sensor signal. If your auto electrical bloke has a scope get him to test it. Ivor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
