Scooby ECU, what value was the J9 resistor?
Only asking coz when i fitted my scooby ECU chip, I snipped the J9 resistor and chucked it, in an effort to save fuel I am now hoping to fit a two stage switch but guess I need to put the resistor back in? Does anybody know??

Erm?
You should have cut the J1 which although it has a body, it's just a plain link.
J = Jumper (link)
R = resistor (greater than zero ohms resistance)
ALthough if you want to save fuel don't put your foot down as much. On cruise and light use, the scoobyecu should be no more thirsty than standard. If you do have poor fuel consumption then I would check your Lambda sensor, including it's earthing, and also the main earths on the ECU.

I found that my fuel consumption got better with the scoobyecu in place because I wasn't thrashing the car half as much.
