Hello all!
I thought I'd just share with you my project which I'm hoping to have up and living my spring, tall order, but I think it's doable, just!
Just a few pics:
And one of my oldskool mk2 Raleigh Burner, like it's waiting to be put in the back of my mum's car en route to a caravan site at Wales, ahh, good old days!
Now onto the grovelling!
I had a Maestro which was converted to M16 power about 8/9 years ago, so I've done this before, but just about everything worth remembering has been pushed out of my head by newer stuff since!
Basically, I'm running it all on the EFi loom and ECUs (Lucas twin box, 11cu as I recall). The only thing is, I've come to start plugging everything in the engine bay, and I'm a little lost with some of the connectors!
There's a opaque white round plug with 3 thin wires going to it, I forgot to write down the colours though, but it's in the same vicinity of the two main relays which fit to the left shock tower. Can anyone jog my memory as to what this plugs into? it doesn't seem to have anything to go with in there!
Also, there are 3 wires which go to the left hand side of the engine to the thermostat housing, one single with a spade connector, and 2 bound together in loom tape with a black plastic connecter fitted, I seem to recall both of these being utilised on my old setup, but there's only one temp sensor which has the end broken off, so I'm not at all sure what's what! any ideas or suggestions gladly taken onboard! Even close up pics of engine wiring etc appreciated aswell!
Cheers guys!
