Ah -good thinking jim. Is there a way of testing the module? I'll have to investigate more. Regards, Martin ----- Original Message ----- From: Jim Hearne To: quantumowners@googlegroups.com Sent: Thursday, January 24, 2019 9:47 AM Subject: Re: [Quantum Owners] Re: Young driver interested in kit cars
Hi Martin, If you got a shock from pulling off the shut off valve connection then that was because of the back emf voltage generated in the coil of the solenoid (basically the same principle as the igniton coil works on) when you removed the power. If you got a shock just jiggling it then it suggests there is a poor contact to the solenoid. I have had very intermittent cutting out caused by rust on the low voltage ignition coil terminals, especially if you still have the original rubber push on terminals instead of ring tags. But, failure of those ignition modules is quite common as well.

I'll keep your note in my "Quantum file" of emails. I think that's what I have (I'll have a look at the distributor) - I don't have an ECU (which was fitted to the earlier ones - I thought these were called EDIS, but I'm confident Jim has more knowledge). My first 'check item' will be the coil. When the car was running badly when I arrived at Stoneleigh, and seemed like fuel starvation, I checked the wire to the fuel shut off valve and received an HT 'jolt' of it, suggesting there was an internal short from HT to LT.

I think (maybe not) that Martin is after the ecu from the earlier MK2, they don't use a amplifier on the distributor, it's inside the ECU Jim On 23/01/2019 21:58, 'Jamest142' via Quantum Owners Group wrote: Hi again Martin I found this post from March 17 which was a copy from Nov 13... Wonders of the internet :) Hi I posted this back in Nov 2013 (glad the search facility works!). It may help with the ignition modules. Finally found the code for the ignition module - the pattern code is XEI9 (Xray, Echo, Indigo, Niner), a quick search shows several other codes - FORD 6153380, ROVER NJQ10001. FORD 6 153 380 FORD 6153380 FORD 84SF 12K05 7AA FORD 84SF 12K05 9AA FORD 84SF-12K057-AA FORD 84SF-12K059-AA LAND ROVER ERR5210 LAND ROVER STC1184 ROVER CDU4175 ROVER ERR 5210 I hope this helps.
