evinX Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 Im getting these symptoms, changed out the ECU or a good condition one, could it be the code 42? not getting any codes come up or flash for that matter, i did the pink wire mod years ago, what else should i be looking at? *NEEDLE SEEMS LIKE IT WANTS TO STAY AROUND 40MPHS SOMETIMES *NO OVERDRIVE SOMETIMES *OVERDRIVE LIGHTS DOES NOT WORK BUT MANU MODE DOES *ODD TRANSMISSION GEAR CHANGES AROUND 40MPHS *SLIGHT HUNTING IN PARK AT 1K REVS *WHEN COLD USUALLY AT 1K REVS THE ENGINE OR EXHAUST THUDS *WARM IDLE AT 800RPM IS FINE This ones doing my head in *GETTING UP TO SPEED OR DRIVING FAST + ACCELERATING HARD AT SPEED GIVES BACKFIRE/ EXHAUST POPPING - DUE TO TRANSMISSION NOT CHANGING GEAR? Have had new plugs last year, new distributor cap and arm this year, new distributor coil, did the waterpump and the timing is good, even on idle and driving it purrs fine most of the time. New Walbro GSS342 fuel pump. Spoke with Keron, another culprit seems to be a speedo converter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inazone Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 Have you checked your ecu for leaking caps, a lot of people are starting to get this issue due to age. There's a post on the forum about this somewhere, quite recent. Take a look may be what's causing you the problems... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evinX Posted September 20, 2019 Author Share Posted September 20, 2019 Code 42 seems to of been the culprit as a new ecu was fitted. Seems fine now. will keep an eye on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
