while being on a mad hunt looking for a 2.0 mondeo ecu
i came across a company called Lynx all they sell is ecu's

the guy i talked to was called phil, extremely helpfull
told him my situation and he told me all the codes that would work and which ones he had in stock,

anyway i'm now having an ecu sent to me by tomorrow
which should run my rs1800 lump in my Si

the number for this conpany
LYNX - 01949 836362

[Phil Si]

Excellent! Thanks for the Info!

Are they based in Wales?

[RS rob]

think its south yorkshire

[Phil Si]

Even better Rarrr

[mike_wall15]

The important thing though, how much are they?

hope its cheap. im to lazy to call them

There are based in Bingham, near Nottingham.

Regarding using a 2.0l ecu on a different cc engine there are problems.

eg. MAF calibration data is wrong due to MAF size differences.
injectors calibration data is almost certainly different too.

Whilst KAM data aquired during closed loop operation will compensate to some degree, in open loop you almost cetainly will have fuelling problems.

thats the kinda thing i was thinking too.
did they sort ya out an RS1800 ECU? because as said above, the 2ltr item would work, and that i dont disagree, but i doubt it will be runnin as it was designed to.
what i would like to know is whether anyone has MOT'd an 130ps 1.8 running a 2ltr ecu

So you think if I swap MAF-sensor from 2L MOndeo engine the problemm will exist anyway?

Now I have MAF-sens. form 1.8 L mondeo no probs at all, maybe a little poor fuel and air ratio, but not sure, just look to my spurk plugs and they are completely white, not a little bit yellow..
But 1.8 l MAF-sensor form MOndeo is identical by size to 2l MAF.


Sorry for poor eng.

[sailorbob]

Whilst MAF sensor might look physically identical they are calibrated differently so it's always best to use the matching MAF to go with the ecu.

so its best to use a 1800 ecu with 1800 maf even if am running a 2.0?

[sailorbob]

If you are running a 2.0l then it's definitely best to use a 2.0l ecu and MAF.

[jdfiesta]

If you are running a 2.0l then it's definitely best to use a 2.0l ecu and MAF.

which is matched to the 2ltr ecu you are using, ie, Desk, Deep, Dewy...

Just spoke to that Phil guy, he came across as a complete co ck. And he wanted £225 for an ecu.

[escortbreakers.co.uk]

i ran a 2.0l zetec in an escort on a 130 ecu and maf and it ran okish.
it was little lean, tick over was litttle hunty and it wasnt great on fuel.
but it did do 145mph!

[clarks.2007]

I found the phil guy was also a co ck aswell thats odd lol. He also wanted stupid money, not helpfull at all in end i put the phone down on him lol.

[ukgaz]

they got a website?

[Dwayneology]

http://www.lynxautomotive.net/ just googled it

[XR2i dude]

ok now this is where im having problems... ive got 1.8 16v xr, running 2.0l 136ps mondy units as follows
coil pack
throttle body
maf sensor
yet to insert the cams and a working ecu

the ecu im having major probs with.. ive tried about 4 diff ecus now and the engine just wont turn over and start...any ideas?? i was put off foning this phil guy incase hes a pile of poo

[Dwayneology]

on the 2.0l mondeo ecu the injectors and some other things are on different pins from the 1.8 ecu the loom needs to be modified in order to run the 2.0l ecu

there is a section in the guides forum that tells you how to do this it has a 2.0l ecu pinout chart, i got a haynes manual for the fiesta went to the wiring diagrams and made my own pinout chart for the 1.8 ecu by looking at them both together you should be able to see what mods you need to make to your loom in order the run the 2.0l ecu

faq-regarding-eec-iv-incl-8v-16v-turbo-na-vt93753/page35/

that is the link for the guide on that page somewhere it will explain how to do it

cheers

[XR2i dude]

thanx loads for your response buddi... the way u wrote it in laymans terms really helped me finally to understand what i need to do and thanx also for posting the thread link... muchos gracias dave.

[2.0zetec]

im runnin a 2 ltr zetec with 1800 injectors 2.0 maf & 2.0 ecu no probs are you using the xr manifold or the mondeo 1?

[2.0zetec]

oh and btw try sussex ford breakers they have loads of the right ecu's

[Ollybee]

oh and btw try sussex ford breakers they have loads of the right ecu's

Do thay have a website?

[2.0zetec]

best to google them mate and give them a ring cos there a breakers stock changes daily

[sisisisi]

sorry for clogging this thread but does this mean u need to modify the loom in a p5 fsi to run a 2.0 ecu
