Here we go again....

Well, its off the road for the injection swap over.

I have swapped the alternator for one off an Escort - the Mondeo one had outputs designed to go via the ECU, which meant the battery light was on regardless of which output wire I connected it to. The Escort alternator just has a straight forward main charging wire and a signal wire, so when I have recharged the battery and fired it up we will find out if it works as expected!

Go the pedal kit out of its box where it has been hiding for 18 months. Its designed for the Robin Hood Zero and mounts the master cylinder inwards towards the steering wheel, rather than into the engine bay. But looking at pics on the net it has a additional strengthening web which mine does not have, but will not be a problem to knock one up.

  1. Hi Trevor
    I thought you might be starting the conversion about now. How long do you think it will take? Let me know if you want anybody to "hold a spanner/take the p**s" or anything.

    see you soon
