I hope the front drops an inch when the bonnet, bumpber and lamps are on their place. It seems that a zetec is lighter than a cvh?

Removed the dashboard to make room for installing electrics.

Thanks! Does anyone have a pin out for the old ecu? Its 75kw EFI cvh, so its not the most common and pin order differs to those can be found on the net? The numbers on the ECU are 9ABA and 89AB-12A650-BA.

There seems to be slight problem, everything should be connected, but the fuelpump does not run... Does the PATS cut the fuel pump or the ignition? Does anyone know what colour the fuel pump relay is and is it on the fusebox or under the dash on these EFI models?

With the old ecu the fuelpump did run. I thought the fuel pump relay was a small brown one, but apparently both of them in the fusebox are for lights?

as far as I am aware PATS cuts power to fuel pump and starter motor, as for the relays I am not sure.... http://www.escortupgrades.co.uk/Escort%20Upgrades/Chapters/Engine/Zetec/Zetec%20-%20ECU%20Pin%20List.htm have a look here it might be useful.

I have been to that site. problem is that we dont have any info for the old ecu, and ford cant supply it. And we cant find it from the interenet.

startermotor works and the engine cranks, but fuelpump (found it, was a yellow one in fusebox) does not run. It works with the old ecu, so I think its the PATS that makes trouble :unsure:

Its alive!

Thanks to basilbear who helped with getting a non-pats ecu :drivin:

There are still things to do, exhaust leaks, engine works better without maf, etc. But it runs, no water leaks, and it feels good to drive.

Hi, back again with this project, had to sell it 1,5 years ago because of our water heater blowed up, and I didnt have cash ready for that sort of thing. A friend of mine was interested of this and I sold it to him to fund the heater, now its coming back to me. It doesnt have the 16" wheels anymore, but the original 14" cosworth style wheels with new tires are still with it. It also has new roof, but has no MOT, as its not been driven since I sold it. I´ll add some pics when its back in my garage once again!
