James, I have sent you a PM, thank you - Paul

Paul and Jonathan, Thank you for your inputs, I now believe I have done enough to get me going. There was continuity between the ECU Pin 2 and the ignition switch, and when applied there was 12 volts. There was no continuity between the ECU Pin 2 and Coil, nor between the Coil and ignition switch. I could not find a relay and I didn't want to remove the black tape from the loom to find a broken wire (I will save this for the winter). I have added a wire now to the Coil, connected to a spare contact on the ignition switch and hey ho everything works as it did before. Thanks again Paul

Good morning all, would anyone have a: 1600 8v Vauxhall Cylinder Head from a multi-point 1992-1994 Astra? I believe the engine code would be C16NZ2. Cheers. Paul Thanks to Paul I am now sorted Cheers Paul

My immobiliser is a Shurlok EP100. The ECU is MBE 956i. The fuel pump is working and there is power to the starter. Even when I hot wire the coil to start the engine, there does not appear to be a supply to the ECU (I will recheck this is the morning. I cannot find any relays in the loom, unless they are covered in black tape.

Paul, My ECU is wired up as follows: 1 Pink Coil Pin 2 2 White I am assuming this is 12Volt supply* 3 Purple Coil Pin 4 6 Yellow Crankshaft Sensor Pin 2 9 Black Earth 12 Slate Crankshaft Sensor Pins 1 & 3 13 White / Black Tacho Sensor *Is the ECU 12 volt supply coming from the Ignition Switch? Is this something the Immobiliser will immobilise? if so this could be my problem - duff immobiliser. Tomorrow I wil try and connect 12 volts to the ECU direct from the Ignition Switch and see what happens.l
-
Thank you Paul & Jonathan, A quick update, I connected 12 volts direct to the coil, engine fired first time, and every other time I tried it. Just have to diagnose the fault now.
-
Yes you can, I will get it scanned at work and email it to you. Please let me know your email address. Cheers Paul By the way, the battery voltage is 12.81v, with ignition on, fuel pump running it drops to 12.61 and when cranking it drops to 11v. I wasn't able to get jumps leads and a car to it, but I did put a 'jump start' battery on it. With exactly the same results.

Hi Andy, no master cut off. I am slowly going through the wiring and checking continuity. I am going to have to go back to Caterham and see if they have a pin out diagram for the ECU. The circuit diagram I have bears no resemblance to the ECU fitted. cheers. Paul
-
Thanks Jonathan, I will try that tomorrow night and report back. Paul

Checked it with a multimeter. I should also say that last November I replaced the Crankshaft Sensor, new plugs, leads and new coil. Everything was fine at that time. I have a MBE 956i ECU, and a standard coil with amplifier, running on webers. Paul

Evening all, A real numpty question for you. After 7 months I tried to fire up the car on Saturday. As you can probably guess it wouldn't start - no spark. There is no voltage to the coil whilst cranking. Does anyone have any ideas? Cheers Paul
-
Good evening all, I am considering having some work done on my head, flowed, ported etc. With out me taking the head off, can anyone tell me if the ports are 'round' or 'square'? Thank you Paul
-
Mine is going back as well, probably not battery though
-
Hi Tim, Is it possible I can have the last 3 units please? If you send me the details I will do a bank transfer for you. Kind Regards Paul
-
Thank you Dave
-
Hi Nick, it would be postage for me. Cheers Paul
-
Hi Nick, I would like a pair if they are still available. Cheers. Paul
-
Hi Nick, I received a set of each type from Iyan today, they are extremely good. Very pleased with product and cost, thank you. All I need now is a set of black wheels to put the black stickers on. Kind Regards Paul

Dave, This one is on EBAY, seems expensive though. Cheers Paul http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Caterham-FIA-roll-over-bar-ultra-rare-short-cockpit-version-live-axle-cage-/271776762592?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item3f47284ae0

Hi, I have a Vx Classic with an Ital axle. Would any one have a set of black with polished rim minilites (preferably a set of 5) in good condition they no longer require? Tyres are not a necessity. I would also like a decent pair of black 4 point quick release harnesses. Here's hoping, Paul. I am now sorted for harnesses thanks to Mexman. Still looking for wheels :)

Hello, no I didn't post it in Chit Chat, I managed to find a chap called Andreas Seydell (German Administrator) within the website. He kindly spoke to them on my behalf and has put me incontact with a chap called Ruediger Wolters, who speaks english. As yet I have not been able to make contact with him due to work commitments. I will have the oportunity on Monday.
-
Definately be up for a set of both.
-
BTTT, still looking - and I have requested help from a German member.

Hi elie boone, My engine is the oss ball C16NZ2 - Thank you for the advice, just have to find someone to speak German :) Cheers Paul

Hi, I built my 1.6 Vx Classic from kit form in 2001, and I feel it is now time to start upgrading it. Would anyone have a kit going spare that they no longer want? Thanks in advance Paul
