I would re post them but alas they have dissapeared from my old server.

I would expect that you have done some damage to the ecu. BTW reading codes on these is VERY limited.

I have one John, yours if you want to borrow it

check engine mounts, gearbox mounts and while you are there check the prop shaft doughnuts.

its a chain guide. Way to remove it is get a 2" m8 ( I think) bolt, 1 nut and a large washer. Using a small socket put one nut on the bolt. Put bolt though socket, put the washer over the bolt and screw into hole that you will see in the timing case by the chain rail. Screw the nut in to pull...

Seen it happen with a faulty speed sensor too

Possibly the motor brushes or the regulator.

I am breaking a 124 estate. 280 petrol. All parts with the exception of the ECU (goosed) and rear bumper are on offer. The engine and box are sound and the wiring loom looks good. Anyone interested either call me or email me.
