2.0 Engine now in but .......
i went to start it for the 1st time and...... POW it fired up ( turned over about 6 times )
lol
i havent changed the ECU yet it was running with the 1.8 ( being changed today )
anyway the problem i have is, it was reving it self up ( like i stared it with foot flat on floor ) but i wasent
could this be because of the 1.8 ecu or somthing else ?
i checked the TPS / MAF / All TB cables, plugs , Ect and it still done it ...
im hoping it might just be the ecu but wanted to ask you guys before i go out and get all dirty

If you used the mondeo tb you might just want to check that its not sticking open, or that it can close properly. Just a complet guess really!
Just because I keep talking about definetly doing it doesn't mean I'm actualy going to do it.

but surly a 2.0 would work better with a 2.0 ecu ( DEEP is what i got )
it wont even spark with the DEEP
with the NEON 1.8 ifts fine but ticks over abit low that could be 101 things tho ...
still not sure why that thermostat housing cracked .... hoppfuly it was just knackerd and not somthing else making it crack
Ps reving problem now ok,
The Tb was open ( forgot a spring )
sorted now ... execpt that thermostat GRRRRRRRR

it will run it but i change to a working DEEP or similiar soon, as the map will be wrong for your car. I ran mine on a 1.6 GURU till i sourced the DEEP

i'm assuming your car is an Xr2i 16v???
if so then your loom for the 1.8 engine will have external EDIS plumbed in, you'll need to remove that part, the ECU controls the EDIS internally on the 'DE' prefix ECU's

like stated, if your car is the 16v xr2i then it will probably be controlled with an external edis ecu, all mondeo ecus are internal edis so to make it work you will neeb to change the wiring loom for an internal edis before the mondeo 2ltr ecu will work. a loom from a Nreg fiesta si will work i think as its internal edis. hope this helps

dont really think changing the pins will make a difference, end of the day you have an external edis wiring loom and an internal edis ecu, it wont work. really think you need to change the loom if you want the mondeo ecu.

2 ltr con
the easiest way is using the si loom i couldnt get old of 1 so i used 1800 loom yeh it was a pain . but with help from sailorbob we sorted it. took me along time to get my head around it .but its running nice now.if i was you go for the 1600 si loom.but if you want to stick with your 1800 loom i will try and sort you the pin outs ..

The thinking behind it was that if the 2 litre ecu uses internal edis and the xr2i uses external then by unplugging the edis module on the bulkhead and using the 2litre ecu with internal edis it might work.
Its just an idea though but id be interested to know if it works?

hi mate write these down i cant find the pin outs at moment dont no what ive done with them. the eddis wires you DONT USE are 3 4 8 9 .number 7 goes to 40 or 60 of ecu. 58 inj 1 move to 51. 59 inj 2 move to 52. bear with me on the others mate. but dont attempt till you got them all.

Hi mate, if your car isnt running with the 2.0 ecu, have you checked to see if it needs the PAT system, you know the key with the chip in it, will stop the car from sparking. To bypass this you need to add 4 pins to your ecu connector and you need a pin out data book cause cant remember what pin numbers it was. Cheers.
