once the 24v's turbo'd it'll kill this :wink: :lol:

anyway today ........ we managed to rig the mondeo temp gauge to the cossy sender - seems to work ok cant get the fan switch to work so tried another cant get it to get hot enough to bring it on - unless its reading wrong :? but got a wire link bypass that brings fan on constant if needed :D

also with the mondy clocks the fuel gauge is the wrong way round :lol: and the rev counter still not working but i think temp gauge is more important :lol:

apart from that generally had a laugh with the van wasted a few cars - usual look on peoples faces :lol: :lol:

i still can't believe how well it drives :shock: 8)

oh and bad news the pas rack fitting has now sprung a leak :roll: beginning to woner is the pump is making too much pressure :?

You'll need the Transit PCB to sort this properly.

try wiring the rev counter wire to pin 25 on the ecu, if that doesnt work it, take it to the green wire on coil
