Hey lads, i have recently just done a huge conversion in my swb, from carby manual to efi auto ( complete engine box all wiring fuel tank ect!!!! ) huge a** job and its the second time i have done this(never again), anyways the lad i bought the motor ect off sometimes had problems with it just not starting so found out it had some thing to do with the ECU, when it would play up he would unplug the original and plug in one of his mates ECU to fire it up, turn it off the put his original ECU back in and it would be fine for a week or two then would have the same problem (wierd)
so after i finished all the swapping nd cursing, it was running sweet as, then having the same problem until two days ago when it just wouldnt start at all, i pulled out the ECU noticed there was corrosion around 3-4 pins, i gently cleaned them up then on basicly just fell off, so i went nd grabbed the other ECU of a mate, plugged it in it started first go but was up in revs about 1500-1700 it finally came down after warm up and sat about 800-1000 on idle no a/c, as it took it for a drive it wouldnt change gears untill about 4000 rpm through ever gear, but when i switch it to HOLD on the auto switch it will change fine using it manually, i rang wholsalers autos and asked the Q. he suggested on changing the TPS position, either that or the speed sensor cog is out or something but that has never been touched,
if anyone has any info that might be able to help it would be greatly appricated, thanks
