few people know ive got a my99 t-plate uk scoob. without ripping all the carpets up etc, could anyone tell me what the ecu is under the passenger footwell? tried the search facility, but didnt get my cars ecu, only jap ones for some strange reason...

think the car is standard, although i am still having a well publicised boost problem

ive got a 99 and it had a ae 801

Better to lift the carpet to be sure youth.

 

no idea, havent got any gauges.

did a little mooch under the bonnet just now, and i found this little thing near the window washers resevoir... the red tubing that comes from the top of this disappears to the left. anyone explain what it is/if its bad for my car? is it the source of my problem?

andy

 

Hmm... that looks like an uprated fuel pressure regulator?? Maybe it hasn't always been standard?

 

thats not standard. Its an upgraded fuel pressure regulator.

 

this pipe doesnt look standard either. Do you have any gauges?

 

nope as said, no gauges inside or anything. im thinking whether the car was slightly modified before i bought it, and only partially returned to normal.

when i had it serviced at scoobybits, jse mentioned something about it being a fuel regulator. is it best just to rip it off?

the red tube attaches to the top of the gauge thing...

1 minute and il take another pic...

andy

 

I know that. Im talking about the black tube that the line stops on?

 

just took these...

this is how the red "ropey" material, ie not silicon or rubber/plastic connects to the regulator or whatever it is...



and from the drivers side front wheel looking over, this is where the tube ends up...



can anybody shed any light on this. if i get through to jase at scoobybits tomorrow im gonna ask a couple of questions, see if he can help. the boost prblem is ******* me right off now... on it comes off it goes on it comes ogg it goes and so forth... christ

 

the red "rope" looking tube is the vacuum line for the regulator.

Have you a boost controller?

Im still curious about that black tube that is "T'd" into the other black tube.

 

apologies for the ignorance, have you pic of a boost contoller. i doubt i have one anyway, but im curious myself...

 

On that answer I'd say you dont have one, you'd know if you did
