I'm having doubts.. the old system tapped the coils for timing signal, with a box that turns on and off which may or may not turn the injectors off..Its all out!! It was piggybacking the coil drivers rather than the injector signals, no clue yet how it was switching then off.
I wonder if it's something to do with this black box which had a switched live? Do i tap a switched live off the new system and hope it all just works? It joins the loom half way across the back of the engine
If the new system goes in series with the petrol injectors and the black box turns them off the engine will stop running

1 issue steering went into half assisted mode servotronic issue,
So trying to take the quick and easy way by swapping bcm rather then the transducer on the rack,
made a copy of my bcm/gm3/central electronic uint or whatever you want to call it,
Front seat up and forward new one in, wrote my eprom done and dusted in less then 15mins and didn't even need too resync the ket too the remote locking
Mint all is working perfectly again

Anything like that with a motorbike, my favoured option would be to cable tie their hand to the header pipe and leave the engine running. When the tie melts through they can leave.Started the V8 up only to be met with deafening noise. Turns out some sad little scrote has had the cats off it
Dunno officer. I'd had it running, he must've slipped and put his hand on the pipe when he tried to fiddle with a bike that isn't his....
Not so easy with a car though.

Interesting. That's what appeared to happen to @MrGorsky's cats. And the broken bits block the exhaust further down causing some rough running. Although, to be fair, most of his issues arose after the car had stood for a year or two. I reckon the insides rotted out.

Tubing is here already even has little clips with it (5Let me know how you get on spill pipes are the bain of my life.
who clips one end of a hose??) no way you’ll find spill pipe this quality and actually works out cheaper. See how it goes if it lasts 6 months it’s a contenderStates standard hoses are not suitable for fuel but Fluoro lined are available

I find this a bit strange really, I run bio in my 200 TDI and the stuff I get from my local indy lasts a few yrs. Bio is supposed to be more aggressive to rubbery bits too. Think I pay £4 a MTR, just replaced them all for the 3rd time in 15 yrs.

I wonder if heat has a bearing on the P38 spill tubing? 200 TDI injectors are the opposite side to exhaust and turbo.

So are M51 injectors.
the old stuff would last a decade, stuff now lucky last 6 months.
If you can get decent stuff like Dopey got everyone will be after it. map pipe ^^^ is for as even that’s cracked stuff ain’t that old, no point that pipe being a spill at all is just the norm

3.2 or 1/8” We usually put heatshrink or cable ties around the ends just get bit more life out of them. Cracks let air in when you turn engine off won’t notice until they are at the point you can see the fuel gauge getting hungry and the smell of diesel.

I've never thought about it until now, but how does the thor intake manifold work? does each 'banana' go to the respective cylinder or does the lower manifold muddle things up? Need to be sure which is which when I wire my new LPG system up!
