Rangie46 Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Thought it best to put the ms install here as it's the proper section and is a carry on from my build thread in the members section which can be found here http://forums.lr4x4.com/index.php?showtopic=86540 So picked all my kit up from Nigel the other day, top bloke who explained everything so hopefully this should be a breeze, so first was the crank sensor so tdc set and fit, went like clockwork Next coil packs, as my originals are shot I went with a set of ford coilacks and new lead kit, but needed to make some kind of mount, so a few shots of what I came up with Painted and fitted Coil packs fitted And that's as far as I got this weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rangie46 Posted May 9, 2014 Author Share Posted May 9, 2014 Just started on the loom and I have a question re earths, where does the earth for the edis go? Does it go back to ecu same as mat and cts or does it earth direct to battery? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FridgeFreezer Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Sensors should earth back to the ECU, then the ECU & EDIS want to earth back to a good solid earth point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rangie46 Posted May 12, 2014 Author Share Posted May 12, 2014 Thanks ff, I'm slowly getting there, also my ecu has a tach output and says js0 - spr1, so I take it tachometer goes to spr1 and in the software settings set tach output to js0 and I'm all good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FridgeFreezer Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 That sounds about right, chances are it might already be configured correctly in the settings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangie46 Posted June 28, 2014 Author Share Posted June 28, 2014 Sorry I've not been updating this thread, but we had some issues with the ecu which Nigel sorted out ( top man, bet he's well fed up with me ringing him) anyhow all sorted and running here's a wee vid, tap the pic below hopefully it works, it's running a bit rich and the exhaust was leaking and reading lean, so can't tune yet but it's booked in on Monday to have an exhaust custom made, so will be taking me laptop with me and data logging on me way home, now need to get reading the tuning threads.
