Just had to take it out for a drive, im in love again!! Now to just finish off the new rev counter install into the old clocks! By the way when i say "had" i mean, i went to go to the local motorfactors for some bits in my other escort (1998) and i got 5 mins down the road and the clutch r...

All sorted thank god!!!! Changed the transistor first and tested, seemed to hold back a lot stronger but could still over rev the limit with more throttle (although a lot harder to achieve than before) so id imagine there was something up with that, it also sounded like anti lag (kinda like a jet no...

No problems brent, it will be good for the forum to know the fix as i couldnt find anything about the problem on here. Just wondering what might have caused it as i had been playing about with it earlier in the day but that could just be a coincidence! Just waiting for rs to take my order/deliver th...

Cheers guys! It can go a bit lower (its on coilovers all round) but its a nightmare with the speedhumps and i have split the sump already just hitting small dips in the road!!! The new engine will get a shallower bowl and baffles in the sump then its only the xmember that will hit!!

Some more hope you like it!

Hi guys, was told to get some pics up so here they are. 1980 Escort mk2 Harrier, running 1620cc xflow, ported bvh, balanced bottom end, kent bcf2 cam, big bore manifold, twin 40 webers. Should be around 100-120bhp at best. Im planning to build a new bottom end up this winter though hoping for around...

I see, sorry got a bit confused there its been a long day already!!! Just did it again and grounded the trigger input and the engine carries on running so it must be a problem on the board. Im in the uk so i will get some ordered up asap and go from there. Thanks again, will update when i get it wor...

Just tried that, unsoldered trigger from the pad, ran it up and it holds back at 2k as before with the wire disconnected. When reconnecting (holding it at 2k where its limiting/holding back) it does nothing at all, so would point to it being a problem with Q1 or U1 on rev limiter as you suggest. Is ...

Just out testing it now, with the engine off i have battery voltage 13.4v at coil wire terminal, 13.4v at +12v terminal, 12.7v at the trigger wire terminal and good earth. With it running i have battery voltage again of 15.2v at coil, 15.2v at +12v and 14.4v at trigger. At the rpm limit of 2000rpm (...

Lol, not very dangerous...just an old forum name that is easy to remember! Cars a ford escort mk2 harrier with a xflow on 40's, will get some pics up when i get a chance! Yep v3 with tps, firmware upgraded to 3.2.1 as far as i can make out, it was a while ago i added the board and did the firmware!!...

Hi guys any help is much appreciated, Have been running mj on my car for a few years now and all has been well, when the hard rev limit board was released i fitted one, fantastic thing it is scaring people with the rev limiter of death shooting flames etc :D The problem started today, finally got ro...
