    Default ecu question

    yello, ive got a GX ecu can someone tell me if this is lamda or pre-lamda ??
    problem is ive got a c20 xe running no lamda and im using a GX ecu, its got a misfire to it when at high revs its like it has low fuel pressure and back fires, ive checked everything else and this is the only thing i think it can be ..........

    cheers

    Has the ECU got a sticker on it with a part number?

    You can earth out (i think its pin 22?) and it will ignore the lambda, would need setting up properly with the mixture screw on the air flow meter though.

    Have you got the eml connected up?

    so providing you have the lambda sensor earthed out you could use either.

    it seems to run fine with either but ive only driven up and down in 1st and 2nd so it could be different on the road!!
