Next job. As I wanted a totally standalone loom this meant the original tacho couldn't be connected to the original crank sensor. The only way to get this to work was to fit an aftermarket tacho.

Treated the car to a new loom. Always wanted to tidy the wiring and this one does the job. It's a bespoke race loom from Omex and was over £700.
I decided to fit a new lambda sensor too as the or ... |

Next little job. I've noticed some parts are no longer available for the 206 from the Peugeot dealer anymore. This includes the hydraulic clutch hose. Mine wasn't in bad condition but I'm sure one day ... |

So i now have a plug from the use ... |

My rev counter has always worked, I just don't like the way both the Omex and original ECU are connected and share the crank sensor.

I can't really move on until I get that coil pack connector. They are on back order and have been for a few weeks.
