Tuning My 1.2 16v conversion thread

[fingers99]

Should get there OK. Check that they can do it first, though.

 

[Hudson93]

do i have to use a punto 1.2 16v inlet?

or can i use a bravo 1.2 16v inlet , ecu etc?

 

[fingers99]

Using ther Mk1 stuff will probably be easier.

 

[Hudson93]

Parts are in the post

Someone has offered me some 14 inch alfa 5spokes I havent heard much info about them like what model they are off though but they are 4x98

No progress at all really apart from removing the mk2 inlet etc

Another question can a mk1 punto 16v manifold fit the mk2 engine? I noticed its alot smaller

 

[Hudson93]

Have had a gander on the forum and correct me if im wrong

do i need to remove the cam sensor and make a blanking plate(as mine IS the mk2b engine)

is there anything else that needs changing?

or more things i have to buy

 

[fingers99]

Find the threads by J333EVO and Arc in the Sei/Cinq section.

@CENTOpainter how did you go about fixing the pedal it sits too far back in comparison to the other pedal
soon everyone will be doing it this way (harder way) as mk1 16v bits are drying up

Hmm may have a gander on your advert Lee

I made a bracket and mounted the fly by wire accelerator to the bulkhead, its in the same position as the original. Its all ready for me to finish the bodywork........ but in the meantime i did another one with the Mk1 punto loom etc ( Big thanks to Andys Cinq for the help with the last of the wiring ).

As for going from a 1108 to a 1242 16v, its like chalk and cheese mate, youll soon wipe the smiles off their faces ! trust me. :yum:

 

[Hudson93]

Soo an update!

Using all the mk1 stuff now!

everything is going well however now im stuck

Code light is on!
no fuel pump prime!

when i bridge the fuel pump wire to the positive of the battery i can hear it run so its fine up to the d4 connector!

the key is deffo matching

Help Needed!!!!

 

[ycming]

There is like an earth on the actual mk1 punto loom, with loads of wires going to it. Make sure you ground that, i bolted it to the coil packs.

Did you connect the red/black wire to the bullet collector under the battey tray?

[Hudson93]

yep thats earthed and the black and red wire is connected

i get a few noises from the throttle body area and what not
but no pump prime so i assume its getting power etc

 

[Hudson93]

The dash is currently out btw is there a earth for the codebox in there?

 

[ycming]

ok so code light comes on and stay on ? And you don't hear the fuel pump prime?

If so, this sounds like an immobilizer issue, did you get everything from a running car?

Thanks
Ming

 

[Hudson93]

The car was running yes or theyve palmed me off with a key that doesnt match......great lol

 

[Hudson93]

Would fiat ecu scan tell me if theres an immobilizer fault ?

 

[woj]

In principle yes, but what is the ECU exactly, IAW 18FD?

 

[Hudson93]

Tis indeed have ordered my cable to convert to 3 pin and got a bluetooth one as i have the torque app (also have bluetooth in my laptop

 

[woj]

IAW 18FD is a pre (E)OBD technology, so my guess is that you can forget the Tourque or similar app. I am also not entirely sure what Fiat/Multi ECU Scan would do. But IAW ECU Scan 2 will work and tell you the state of the immobilizer.

 

[Hudson93]

cheers man if it is the wrong key anyone know who can remove the immobiliser?

 

[The Black Box]

ready4bed did mine on this forum cant remember price

cheers man if it is the wrong key anyone know who can remove the immobiliser?

I can do it, but p&p will make it non-economical for you I guess.
