got a question i run a dual fuel ED and just put in a manual and havent chased up a manual mpi ecu..

what would a ea cpi actually do if i chucked it in? it runs 90% on gas so it shouldnt affect that should it?

it will run like absolute s**t
as remember mpfi there is more injectors to run
so ur computer wont be able to run it

sorry bud
but mpfi computers are easy enough to get
but u should jsut use ur original auto computer form the ed until ui can get a manual ecu but u can use the resistor trick which ahs been covered on here alot just hunt around theres plenty of info on all this stuff

best of luck

Do the resistor trick on your original ecu.

Do the resistor trick??

whats that suspose to stop?

i dont have stalling/idling going nuts. it runs slightly higher idle then it did prior being a manual.. only have a problem when i rev it in gear the stepper motor doesnt keep up and sometimes it restores the idle sometimes it doesnt. but thats about the worse of it.

I am a tad confused? run your auto ecu you won't have a drama, chase up a ED ECU, i converted a EB granted it wasn't on gas etc but i just spliced the wires to get the reverse switch and nutral safty switch and i ran the auto ecu,
