the VR6 has been archived for years - on the hope of beter times i can afford to run it - but every so often i pop up and run it.
anyhow i went up the other month - didnt start it - but did a bit of welding ( i had the battery off) before i went i went to fire it up and it just turned over but didnt start. so at first i thought maybe i had done the ecu in.
anyhow - the fuel pumps running ( this and the starter are on the immobizer) and it turns over fine.
i fiddled with various items as you do and had it fire only to die when i press the throttle and not to start again.
the diagnostic plug is missing.
but after googling i hope to have worked out how to wire this in - i bought a socket off fleabay and am gonna have a go at it. The instructions are just three wires - a positive, an earth and a grey white wire behind the fuse box which goes to the ECU - typically there are two grey white wires behind the fuse box - but apparantley it has a brown plug on the end - i have found a brown plug one with a grey white wire and a yellow wire - so if anyone happens to be dead clever on this type of stuff let me know.
so if anyone can offer any assistance in getting the beast running again i would appreciate it. The fact it started gave me hope i would run it again. The fact that it doesnt at the mo - doesnt make me very happy...
thanks all
Mike
