Hi All,

Car hasn't stalled once since last posts.

Engine flutters a little at idle, but doesn't drop dramatically like it used to before dying.

This last weekend I got into the boot and checked / cleaned the connectors to the ECU and the 7EM module (DAC2586) which did have some corrosion and oxidation on a couple of points.

Car runs a little better, so I guess what has been said about loose / dirty connections holds true.

I have noticed that on cold start up though, the tacho needle flicks around the dial now.

Now I'm suspecting a voltage spike somewhere, but don't know where to look for that one.

Cheers,

Nigel

 

Voltage drop, more likely. And, usually, it's the speedo that goes a bit crazy.

Anyhow.....

Clean/tighten all relevant connections. I'd begin with fuses, fuse clips, and the two "+" junctions posts on the firewall.

Cheers
