Maybe you have dislodged an earth somewhere? Where abouts on the exhaust were you welding??

are you sure its definately a carb model!? :eek: with a reply like that i would get some one to double check for you as carb models dont hve ECU's, only injection models have them... if its defiantely a carb model then it will be easier to diagnose as there are alot less electrics and minimal sensors! :thumb:

If its a 1.4SR then its definately not got an ecu, have you chaecked to make sure all of your battery connections are on correctly there are two or three on the + side!
