Then I wonder if Your computer is sending a signal properly. Check GOOGLE and read "How To Test ZETEC ignition". There is more to this. A diode is hooked up to the ignition to insure the coil pack is getting the necessary signal. So if You did this when all fails at least it may give you some information. I have, but not using, a ZETEC EFI. There are at least 2 heat sensors maybe 3. Don't know enough about EFI, but I would find out if I was in your situation.


Check with a few of Your Aussie friends. Roger Shawyer, Richard Rogers, John Merton and/or Vern DaleJohnson. They will tell You that Button is not too bright, but is tenacious as hell!


When I installed a ZETEC engine in My '61 DHC I used Weber carbs for a reason. I wanted something that worked and did not come out of a sedan. Another words I pitched the EFI and the Ford computer. If I really wanted EFI I would go to Throttle Bodies and a computer designed for this rig. Actually Money was My problem. I had the Webers and manifolds already given to Me. I did not want to spend money for something I felt I didn't need. Now don't get Me in the Carbs vs EFI discussion. There is not doubt in My mind that EFI is a better option. But not a sedan efi. One built for performance not emissions. Hope I am not sounding like "I know it all". I don't!!!!!!
