Metro GTI ECU Same as Supersport? or Emerald

[Milesk]

I have a 1.4K super sport 1992 apparently 130BHP?

 

I am confident the ECU is unwell as I have plugged in a normal Caterham ECU and running/tick over is fine.

 

Can you and do you know of anyone who can repair ECU's.

 

Alternatively can I use a Metro GTI ECU??

 

If I have to buy new, is the Emerald the only route to go and would there be any power gain?

 

Thanks Miles

Or thereabouts.

Probably not as was 95 or 103 bhp and a lower rev limit than SS.

CC SS unit, like you've got?

If problem is with tick-over then why not try resetting IACV? When I took my car out of hibernation last year it ran lick a pig on tickover until I realsied why, reset it and purred like a kitten!

 

Alternatively, I had my ecu fixed recently by vitesse electronic systems ltd (excellent price and first class service), blatmail me and I'll send you contact details.

I have an ECU from my 1.4 Supersport you can try, I will be in Billingshurst at the weekend. As Kevsta says try re-setting it first as this always worked for me.
