Thanks Bodumatau The large wiring diagram on page 45 is actually the same as the smaller one on page 50, just upside down. The whole explanation is just a bit confusing.There are numbers 1,2 & 3 on the the plugs and numbers 1,2 & 3 on the wiring diagram, but the instructions say ignore all of the numbers on both the coils AND the plugs? The picture showing the Coil packs A & B one way round and the wiring diagram the other way round is also confusing. Is this correct below? Cheers for the help Richard

Cheers all, I've been getting on with things, pics later (promise ) I bought the A Frame from ebay Tal. £200 delivered, sold it two years later to a P6 buddy for £120. Not bad, £40 a year Anyhoo, I have a problem which has now stopped me dead in my tracks. Page 50 of Nige's build manual shows the coil pack wiring, and shows the brown and white wire going to '1' on the left hand plug, and says it goes to coil plug "A." But coil plug "A" in the picture is on the right whereas the plug is numbered 1, 2 and 3 from the left. So, are the two pictures (wiring diagram and photo) conflicting? or am I missing something obvious? C & D do the same on the other side. The wiring diagram shows "1" on the plug going to "C" (Brown & Green), but the picture shows them the other way round Just to update, the fuel lines are in, car's off the ramps, ECU is under the passenger seat, and the inside of the car and under the bonnet look like an explosion in a spaghetti factory Richard

It's only the end bits I've taped up and no, not insulation tape, it's the loom tape Nige sent with my kit. I've done the last bit on the Lambda wiring as well as that is now in situ under the car, and I wasn't thinking of removing that again for wrapping. Don't panic, it'll work. What could possibly go wrong Have decided on the ECU under the passenger seat now, so I can now start the loom properly. Cheers

Sorted this now, and have started on the loom. That looks fun Richard

Couple of little questions As I have changed from the carb manifold, and from the distributor, how do I get the water temp gauge and rev counter to work? I know it's not yet, but if I need to wire something in, I would rather do it with the wiring loom than afterwards Also, in this pic, there are two sensors. I believe the right hand one is a thermontine sensor so I use the rear one. But its a different type to the one in my build manual. So I bought another CTS with the correct type top and the thread is different Any ideas? Cheers Richard

Pics eh? This is Sparky when he got drunk one night Bit shiny, with home made tracking device Badges I made Won a prize at a local show You think it's clean now It's even clean underneath That enough Richard

What do you mean clean? Look a the dust on that exhaust mani? So not up under the dash then? Not quite sure what the 'OINK' means. Richard

Hi all, I hope I'm allowed on here as I don't have a Land Rover I do however have a Rover V8 engined vehicle and am converting it to Megasquirt Question if I may - where is the best place to put the ECU? Now I can fit it behind the dash up under the fuse box but it isn't going to get any cooling as it will be behind the glove box. It will keep it safe though. Does it get hot in use? It can go under the passenger seat, but it might get kicked. How good is it at taking the odd knock? Or the boot, which means the loom is going to be rather long and cumbersome? Any advice opinion appreciated. Cheers Richard
