  1. Hi All, Does anyone know what is the +V and -V on the fuel pump conenctor? I think its Pin2 and Pin3 to enable the pump to prime. When taking a multimeter to the feed plug, turn ignition on, it reads 12v on pin 2 and 3 for 3 secs then drops to 3v. I just want to make sure the pump is dud before buying a new one. cheers
  2. Hey guys, I'm thinking about having my 2005 206cc 1.6 HDi FAP re-mapped - anyone have any experience or advice please? As usual, t'interweb has served up lots of different info' and I quite like the look of this place http://www.evolutionchips.co.uk/ (only because I like the site, they *seem* to be reputable/knowledgeable and they offer lots of protection/guarantees) but I really don't have any experience in this area and as this car is our joint daily drive I really can't afford to experiment and risk cocking it up! What's making me skeptical is that the Evolution people claim they can release over 30bhp and increase torque by over 50nm/2 whilst increasing efficiency too - is this really a realistic expectation or just pie in the sky? You know the saying 'if it seems too good to be true...' but I must admit I've only recently begun to understand my XU5JA so the diesel's still smoke and mirrors to me. They also talk about removing the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) and Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) valve. We've recently had our particulate renewed and after talking to the shop I'm under the impression that this is integral to stopping build up in the Cat and therefore it benefits the emissions and efficiency so cost aside, why else would I want to have this removed and also why would it be advantageous to remove the EGR valve? The Evolution people only cite 'costly servicing' as the reason for making these changes but they don't say how these modifications affect performance and/or efficiency. The main reason's I want to do this are firstly because it bugs me driving in heavy traffic as it's really unforgiving if I'm not quite in the right gear at slow speeds; secondly, we already get over 500 miles to a tank on a run and I want to see just how efficient I can make it. I'm not so fussed for mega bhp and torque throughout the mid-range as it's spritley enough as is and plus I have my 205 if I want to go for a blast . Ian P.
