Can you clarify what you mean, an Ecutek is a software remapped standard ecu. Is it a standard ecu you have bought that has an ecutek licence?

In block b136 you need to swap 5 and 6 over with each other, that is the crank and cam. Then the fuel pump you need to put 21 into 1 on plug b134.

You can always swap the wires and leave the pins.

Re pinning is a B*stard of a job, when I repinned for the Syvecs I had to move 4 wires, therefore the first three took me 5 mins the last over an hour!

I think they push in from the top and have a small lug to stop them pulling out.You can get a sewing needle in there and push the lug back so it pulls out if your lucky.

There is a plastic latching mechanism on the bottom of the plug that you have to prise downwards with a very small screwdriver.It will only move about 1mm down and then you need a small probe to push up the latch in the pin you wish to remove.Insert this from the front (non wire) end of the plug.Remember to click the plastic latching bar back into the plug once you have fitted the new pin or the pklug won't fit back into the ECU socket..

Larger one.It is a small cam that you need to lift upwards.Try pushing the wire in as you lift the cam to take the tension off the cam, then pull back on wire.

If you get stuck I might have some spare pins with short lengths of wire tails on them...give me a call on 07836 635001 if you need one.
