Question - SP3
 

does the 91' SP3 use a P8 or P7 ecu ??
and without P??? identifier how can I tell if it's a P7 or a P8.
cheers

Hi Neil

SP2/3/4/SPS use P7 ECU. In my understanding, P8 was only used on the later T8s (including SP5). Sorry, can't help with the ID/numbers.

Yep, my 1994 Strada came with a P8, now long gone to Denmark.

bugger, so the one on fleabay is a P7 then...

You can sometimes get P8s from Cosworths, Lancias etc off eBay.
I have no idea if they work with 888 chips.

Does someone know?

The P8's are coded as IAW 435 whilst the P7 is labelled IAW 043. My (early) 888 has a P7. A P8 off a car should be fine as long as you fit a correct EPROM.

cheers guys, think I've found one over in Germany, Nathanhu has just sold me his.
thanks again

Neil

the P8 has an external trimmer, i don't think the P7 has that, just an easy way to i.d one without the weber i.d sticker on it.

ECU is the same, it's the processor that makes the difference.
