I'll probably source a mint set of yellow's and then upgrade to saab red's when I fit phase 2 and a 4 bar reg.

I'd just stick with the Yellows (just get a set clean / tested), then its just a 3.5bar reg.
Sure SAAB reds run lower than 4bar, thats the whole point in fitting them, so it runs at less pressure, less strain on the pump.
Take it you've got a brand new fuel pump ? Phase 2 was designed to be run on std Yellows with a 3.5bar reg, mine ran absolutly fine with that set up ... well, untill it melted !! lol

Regal sell a 4 bar reg with Phase 2 though. Maybe i'm wrong, or maybe thats why you ran lean and melted?

Edit - It's a 3.5 bar reg, my bad :(

Nah, definatly runs a 3.5 bar reg on P2, i got the P2 set up off a mate (who got it from Regal) his ran fine for a couple of year, mine ran spot on for 18 month, fueling was always bang on when it was on the rollers.
My prob was just down to a high milage / worn bottom end, checked pump and injectors and there both fine.

Edit: Just seen your edit ... Need to type faster !!

Never raced or rallied !!

[quote=Adam]Good to hear its running now, i was 99% sure it would be the crank sensor, not much else can stop both a spark and fuel.

^ apsolute genius m8, ive never understood what all these sensors do, but im starting to understand now, i guess the crank sensor is mainly there for safety, in contact with his cyborg buddy the ecu that has his hand on the trigger to cut the spark and fuel if **** hits the fan

I know quite a few people using the light blues on phase 2, injectors from the coilpack xe, supposedly an intermediate of the yellows and saab reds.

XE creams 0 280 150 744 214cc/min@2.5 bar
XE blues 0 280 150 427 241cc/min@3.0 bar
LET yellows 0 280 150 420 304cc/min@3.0 bar
Bosch reds 0 280 150 431 359cc/min@3.0 bar



LEt yellows with a higher fuel pressure are what most people use for ph2 :thumb:

i have a nice cleaned set of bosch yellows here, and a set of xe blues if your interested...

Keith, just go with a cleaned set of yellows.

Do NOT use the EDS modified regulator though, fit a 2wd cossy one and get it setup on a wideband
