I found the rear sensors crushed to death by rust , I believe later , post '94 models , had a PTFE sleeve in the sensor hole for the stainless steel can to fit into.
Again, it is hard to understand why the ABS control module should fail , ie How many ECU failures do you know of ? None.

Re: Distributor
Keep the leads attached to the dis cap.
Remove the distributor, do not worry , it will only fit back the right way when you take it off.
Even if the engine is turned accidentally.

Re: Distributor
You need to find that TOT number or it is all guesswork , different numbers cannot be used.

Re: Runaway Revs
Yes but,, they didn't know the Probe was 'rev-limited' to was it 6 or 6.5 thousand revs/min !

Re: Couple of issues
That is the only helpful clue, a wire or circuit on those two switch positions is 'stopping' the engine. So, it is either preventing a vital feedback from the running engine getting back into the ECU , or it is 'higher up the chain' and taking the ECU relay out directly ? And the headlamp isn't work...

Re: Couple of issues
I have been looking at those circuits and to try and NOT guess at what is taking the engine out is...................... Instinct keeps saying "It's the engine change to blame" , ie something has been damaged on the wiring loom, somewhere. A lot of very careful visual examination seems a good start....

Re: Couple of issues
You really need to narrow the search down by isolating blocks of circuit .
Look at that wiring diagram book , section 32 , you will see various plugs that allow you to do this.

Re: Couple of issues
As for lights, switch drives relay, relay feeds motors.
If the relay is working then I would suspect broken wire or poor earth somewhere.
Clutch ?
You must have had a problem before , new master cylinder fitted , job for Janice in the morning I think while you watch what is happening !

Re: Lazer brakes
Well done Malcolm. I was going to mention replacing all the brake caliper bolts for stainless , especially those on the rear calipers. Rounded heads are a real pain , best avoided. Denso tape wound round the shaft on the rear calipers where it enters the ' lip seal ' in the caliper body helps too. T...
