hi.
just wondered if you put in a el manifold when you put a el ecu in a ed does the power economy switch work in reverse as in if its in power mode its actually now in ecomomy or does it stay the original way it was on the ed ecu if switch goes in reverse how could you get it to work in the original positions it was with the ed ecu. is it possible to wire up relays so the switch will still work in the original positions it was in the ed with the ed ecu. how long does it normally take to remove the ed manifold and acc cable and pedal and put the el manifold complete with everything, acc cable/pedal and modify the cruise control cable. how much work is it is it possible to join part of the ed cruise control cable to the el cruise control cable end with guy wire clamps so the cruise control cable will work again when you put in the el bbm in a ed do you have to rotate the distributor so the plug faces the other way or will it be fine left the way it faces in the ed model |

is it possible to wire up a relay so the power economy switch in the el ecu works the way it did in the ed ecu

Actually aren't the EL cluster different as they use an LCD display and the word economy lights up on it so you can't use it to mod the ED one you will need to make your own. |

LP, only the Fairlane cluster has the Economy word in the LCD screen. All the others have the Economy word along the bottom, which can be modded.

I just cut the power bit off my ED xr6 dash (the long black strip on the bottom or the dash with all the warnings and displays) and replaced it with the piece out of a Mitsubishi Colt Dash Cluster I had here for the POWER/ECON light for the 4 spd and power / econ lever. Works well its Orange not green now tho?

is it possible to use a el xr6 computer in a log manifold, will it just be the same power as a ed xr6 or will it run rough and how do people get the el xr6 computers working with a log manifold and run smooth and whats the fuel consumption like on a el xr6 ecu with a log manifold
only wondered |

el had DUEL ignition maps for the BBM (short and long runners) id say you would loose power rather than gain any and pinging may be an issue too

is it possible to have the bbm taken out the el ecu so it works like a ed ecu for a cheap price and hoe do you get around the bbm without putting it on

when you remove the heater steel hose going around the back of the engine how hard is it to get to the bracket at the back of the engine do people do them with the engine/head in

so for the sake of an example... you wouldnt be able to have serpentine setup and thermos on a car running a log manifiold, without a chip?
