I repaired the oil leak (melted oil return) and fitted the 21T MAP Sensor. Just need to swap the ECU's over and its ready for test firing! The
N/A ECU doesnt like the new MAP sensor and It runs really rich so i started seeing pink elephants in the garage!
Fingers crossed for getting this done tomorrow.....
If this fails, i will definitely be fitting a 2.9L Cosworth V6.
Go on, admit it, you're secretly hoping it fails arn't you..?? I bet you've already planned the cosworth swap out in your head..
I have, nd ive even got a picture of it on my desktop, looked at the re-assembly (pictures), replacement parts for the damaged ones and what i want it
to look like. Ive even planned a supercharger on the top which should fit nicely!! 
Ive tried the new ECU purely out of impatience and wonder. I couldnt sleep tonight knowing that id have to wait until tomorrow to see if it works.
Guess what............
It doesnt!! It fires up, but then cuts off as soon as it starts. Another sensor in need of replacement i think, but i need to do some more digging
before condemning it completely.
The cosworth will fit as well i reckon..... - Not that i keep thinking about it or anything........ cosworth..........
Hi Rich, got little or no signal at the hotel here & also none at all on site, i get the odd phonecall but signal cuts out if i move or fart !!
will catch up when i get back at the end of the week mate. good luck but sounds like you need the V6
P.S, beer/food & internet is spot on & speedy here, how queer !

Tried the 21Turbo water temp sensor today and it still starts but dies. May be a fuelling problem because of running the standard injectors.
Also had a very long conversation with Top Boss Performance, who seemed very knowledgable and helpful with the cosworth engine!!
Quite useful really, seeing as im running our of options on the renault engine.
