Name: Andrew
Vehicle: 1980 Ford escort RS2000
Engine: 2L Pinto (standard)
Injection: Single throttle body, using Ford Sierra manifold and Holden Camira sensors / throttle body
Description: The car is running well with a smooth idle. Only thing left to do is install a fast idle solenoid as at the moment it won't idle for about 3 mins when cold. I tuned mostly using MSTweak, which i think is a great program - made life very easy. I am yet to take any fuel consumption figures, but given that it used to run very rich i think there will be a big improvement. Overall the proscess was a lot simpler than i was expecting, went in without a hitch.
