well now, having spent several hours learning about my car i have made some not so nice discoveries.plenty of testing and measuring has me convinced that the computer is at least half dead.turning on egnition,pump runs,injectors click when pressing excelerator.turning to start i may get a fire or short run.cold start injector does not come on,some argue its too warm,i think the only thing stopping it is no power at the relay when engine is cranking. injectors are not getting any power when i have run engine on hot wired cold start injector.all other probes ,sencors and and trigger points seem to function as designed.might be heading up the garden path since the info has come out of a v12 jag workshop manual.it is also bosch and physical appearance plus values stamped on items are identical to my car.
i have tried to locate another computer and have found one out of a 1973 250ce,same engine,but the last three figures of the part number are different.006 compared to mine 004.
this is where it becomes interesting again since jet another wrecker is of the opinion both are incorrect for that car and should end in 024 or 025. both cars are 114's. please someone tell me it doesnt matter and the 006 is just fine.out of a running car and well priced.
another question is the ignition.the unit under the battery doesnt hook up to anything anymore and i have normal points and coil ignition.doesnt bother me at this stage as at least i have spark.
