850 -92 converted automatuc>manual, ignition problem

Hi all,



  1. When the auto gearbox collapsed I decided to rebuild with a manual instead. All is well and fine, the car performs nicely with only one hitch. Every now and then, when to engine is strained it seems as if the ignition "fails", the car has a hiccup or however to describe it which I find a bit annoying. Could it be that the electronics have to be reprogrammed as it this seems to happen when the RPM sinks to a level where kickdown or gearchange would have happened had it still been an automatic gearbox??


  1. Anyone knows if there is any electrical wiring scheme available on the net? Its for a 5 cyl 170 BHP 850 -92.

This is a possibility, can you be much more specific with regard to what RPM this happens at, throttle positin, and whether the hiccup is reproducable at will??

Off the top of my head, I think this engine runs the twin combined ECU setup (Ign / Fuelling + gearbox) How exactly did you convert it with regard to the the electronics?
