JxckGlanza Posted April 22, 2020 Author Share Posted April 22, 2020 So this happened...buzzing ME221 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JxckGlanza Posted April 23, 2020 Author Share Posted April 23, 2020 Little bit done on the glanza tonight. I took the emanage out and got a wiring diagram up. I managed to link out the cut wires and the car started right up. currently in two minds of leaving it linked out like it is or taking the harness out. more then likely I’ll tape up the links and leave it like that.

JxckGlanza Posted May 2, 2020 Author Share Posted May 2, 2020 Update - So the ME221, been far from a PNP to be honest. I got it installed and got sync issues. So i carried the dizzy mod out so now its 12-1. However still got sync issues. So i layed new shielded cable and the me221 went wild. It started syncing and unsyncing when i wasnt even cranking it. Really dont know what happened. Anyway i removed the battery terminal and reset the car it had fixed it. I got sync and spark, on all 4 cylinders. I haven't now had any sync issues. Although throughout the process i needed new plug, as i thought that was the issue but it was just syncing and not. Its been a long week of getting though serveral stages. However everything seemed good to go. She fired up finally but i believe the map is bad. When its been revved it sounds ok ish, however the car will not idle. When i hold the throttle around 1200 it sounds like a misfire. But its currently running. Been a wild game of what i thought would be easy. I will try upload a video of how it is now Also got a 3 gauge pillar pod off a seller on here ready for some gauges Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JxckGlanza Posted June 1, 2020 Author Share Posted June 1, 2020 (edited) So i have fitted some new injectors to the Glanza over lock down, i got them from CP fuel injection. I went for Bosch EV14 630cc, i repined the new plugs into the factory harness, shes starting to pull together now, few sensors and be ready for mapping Edited June 1, 2020 by JxckGlanza Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JxckGlanza Posted June 1, 2020 Author Share Posted June 1, 2020 So as i have ME221 i thought i would take advantage of doing the COP conversion. I know i'm not going to partially need it right now but i feel now is a good time especially for future proofing along with removing all the potential issues what can happen with the ht leads dizzy etc. it will defiantly promote reliability and after all with be a stronger spark. Not to mention how much better it looks on the engine bay. Its will also be cheaper to do this then a ignition overhaul as i have most of the materials from work (industrial electrician). Up to now its cost me £40 for 4 k20 coils £13 for k20 connectors, ive made the harness myself and a friend will weld the rocker cover. So im on with that this week. Bit of a mock up for the harness to be finished this week Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JxckGlanza Posted June 16, 2020 Author Share Posted June 16, 2020 K20 coil harness done and running. Now going to weld the studs to the rocker and get the new IAT bung welded to the intercooler piping. Nearly there and ready for mapping Quote Link to post Share on other sites

5T4R7ET N/A Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 How did you wire in the k20 coils? A little explanation would be nice. Im got k20 coils and me221 as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Im got k20 coils and me221 as well. Yeah bud so I made my own harness. You want a 4<1 splice for your switches 12v and 4<1 for the ground. I then did a 2<1 splice for cycl 1&4 and 2&3 (wasted spark). The two signal cables went out on pin 22 and 18. The 12v was used from pin 1 on coil pack and grounded to the engine. IMG_7325.MP4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I believe it’s actually a BMW tps but I’m not 100% I could be totally wrong. So don’t quote me but yeah so far so good. I spoke to my mapper and he said they have worked fine for fair few for him.
