Barkston Sunday 14/10/07

[Gerry H]

Who's doing Barkston this Sunday? Weather should be dry according to forecaet.

[ESL]

My car broke down last night, its a weird one, trying to get a fix for it as we speak, so fingers crossed. :?

I'm entered if I can get it working again.

[Gerry H]

Nothing serious I hope Andy, What's happened?

[Andy916]

I am ... my first proper sprint, and first one since the Evo-scoob kart track one last year.

Have had email confirmation (it's an entry carried over from July which I couldn't make) but nothing through the post. Are you coming up the A1 Gerry? Perhaps we could meet up. Hope the car fixing goes well, Andy.

Quick check - no timing strut required for this one? What about fuel, is there Tesco/Shell nearby. Will drop Billy a quick email, as he probably has my old car's registration number at the moment.

cheers
Andy

No timing strut required, its all pretty relaxed Andy.

Its electrical, running happy as larry one moment, pull onto Alconbury base last night and it stopped running and hasnt started since.

Got my wiring diagrams out now!

[Gerry H]

Good to see you're going Andy.

No timing strut for Barkston, it's hand timed.

I am going up A1. There's a Shell between A14 and Peterborough on the A1

[Gerry H]

Beat me to it

Fuel pump whirring? Got a spark? Can you interrogate the ecu with your chip?

Do you need any bits to try swapping?

[ESL]

Nope, no fuel pump, its acting as though the ECU isnt plugged in. Just wading through the pinouts to see if it has got power.

[ESL]

It hasn't got switched power! Now to work out why

[Gerry H]

No good me trying to advise you about ecus, you know a darn sight more than I do

But if you need to try any swappable parts, cam or crank sensors, etc. and there's no one available who's nearer, give me a call
