Hello everyone, Really interested in this thread and good work to everyone doing it. Has there been any luck in being able to talk to the 430 system? Trying to do a brake bleed and no luck. Any help would be great.

Does anyone in this group live near Edinburgh Scotland? Thanks Tony

I would check and recheck to make sure the oil pressure is good before I drove anywhere.

Can you tell me which blow off valves you got (model number from forge)

You have to take the shifter out, to cut several zip ties that are attached to them inside the tunnel. And be very careful with the fittings at the cooler themselves or you will be in the market for new coolers as well. Just did the job myself. The job itself is not that hard, just a PITA to do.

Actually I just helped one person figure out the exact same problem. Car would run fine, once warmed up it would die. Cool off and restart. It ended up being the ignition module under the coils.

The part is the same as from a 1988-1990 Pontiac Sunbird 2.0L turbo Delco 214-474. Map sensor would also be the same. As most engine electronics.

Here is one question? Is the car in gear? Ask me how I know.

Hi guys here is the number for the 4 pot ecu. tons on ebay for 150 bucks u.s. max. 01228708

Does anyone have the wiring schematic for the rear fog light? For a 2002. Think its diagram 11 of the service manual

Check your charging system if it is charging when that happens

I am looking into one as well. If you search on amazon, they have one with a voltage gauge built into it. Kill two birds with one stone. https://www.amazon.com/MICTUNING-4326593002-Voltmeter-Universal-Motorcycle/dp/B01M4OKBSB/ref=sr_1_12?crid=3FJTS520NT3WH&keywords=usb+with+voltage+meter&qid=1568141306&s=gateway&sprefix=usb+with+voltage+%2Caps%2C156&sr=8-12

If the charge lamp is not on when the car is put in the run position but not started it is burnt out. The alternator will not charge. If you want to know how i learned that lesson the hard way is taking out the alternator 2 times having it bench tested and rebuilt two times, car leaving me stranded due to it not charging for a 99 cent light. To replace the light you have to remove the binnacle cover and just pop in the new light. Instrument panel does not have to come out. I am thinking about rewiring with a diode to ensure it does not happen again. In other words fixing it the way it should have been built.

Before you replace your alternator. Make sure the charge light is not burnt out. The light is in series with the field wire. No light = no charge.

What I did was ordered the WABCO unit and had them turn down (machine) the neck to match the Lotus unit.
