2 жыл бұрынSierra cosworth managed rs turbo delivered to me as a non runner,
owner had enough of trying to sort it himself after various attempts.
Will I get it running after being off the Road 2 years?

Question, would the ecu display on a laptop not have picked up the broken wires/sensor?
@dave280585 2 жыл бұрын
It would but this is a dinosaur of an ecu, from 1987, these are from the days where you would need to either put a piggy back board in the ecu or run a "chip" I wish it was that easy sadly it isn't, it's another reason why ive recommended him to upgrade it to a modern spec setup but as is its running so he's happy to leave as is

you forgot to mention it's not running an escort rs engine or those who think they know but obviously don't, for those who pretty know that's fiesta efi setup where as escort rs turbo runs an mfi setup.
@dave280585 2 жыл бұрын
It's actually an efi block but running what looks like a sierra twincam crank sensor setup, managed by a sierra cosworth ecu loom and injectors using a fiesta efi inlet manifold modified to accept a sierra cosworth throttle body, there's not much fiesta efi in there except the Inlet manifold, I think even the heads a MFI with an adapter plate.

@@dave280585 what a bastardised setup, when I had my rs I binned off all the stupid after market shit and it ran so much better, I just got my standard ecu chipped so I could run 15psi boost (I only ran that pressure on the rolling road) on the actual road I was running at 10psi with no issue other than a touch of clutch slip when hot
@dave280585 2 жыл бұрын
Nothing wrong at all with standard setups, for the power this is running a standard mfi setup would have been much better, people get sucked into this cossie management conversion I think its absolutely shit, if going efi a simple DTA t2 is suffice

@@dave280585 couldn't agree more, mine had adjustable cam pulley and some shit after market electronic boost controller, binned them both off and fitted a manual boost control, and a nice set of Burton power lifters which got rid of the standard cvh rattle
