Oh yes
« on: 26 April 2008, 18:25:26 »
Newbie I may be.....totally hopeless at mechanical things almost definitely BUT....got the refurbed ABS ECU in and all is working fine.
Have to dispute the comments about one of the bolts being hard to get in and probably best left out, all the bolts were a breeze but the engine end of the top hose!!!!!!!!!!  Used up all my swearwords and then some getting that back on and clamped...mutter mutter mutter.
Filled up the fluids and took it once round town and it was brilliant. All I have to do now is work out why it runs lumpy (both Petrol and LPG so that does give me a start point I suppose). Did try checking the plugs but as far as I can tell my V6 only has two, one front left and the other rear left. Can see something which might be the centre plug but as for the right bank, not the faintest clue.
Nearly forgot to mention, three hours to get it out and only two to get it all back...chuffed bunny or what.

Congrats on your achievement.  It always feels good when you manage to do a task that a dealer said was going to cost an arm or a leg or three.....   :y
