Title: Starting, reseting the CU,... etc. '93 2.0 DOHC
Post by PaveloSK on Jul 21^st, 2010, 9:33am

Hi!

First issue I want to ask about is, that when my Scorpio is on bright sun or has been running for a while there's a big problem with starting. When I turn the key it just clicks and doesnt start. I have to repeat several times and keep my fingers crossed.

Next thing - I probably will need to reset the control unit as I am going to clean the throtle and the air-controlling-thingie that keeps your idle revs. How do I do this and how do I set it back ?

My board computer is totally f...ed up. Show totaly mad information and I can't even set the clock or date. How do I set this right?

Speedometer isnt very specific through 0 to around 50 mph, it is very jumpy and sometimes is very hard to read what speed are you going.

PaveloSK.
Your car sounds like a Granada Scorpio,ie as we in the UK call a mark 3 Granada.This site caters for the post 94 pure Scorpio,but there are a couple of good Granada sites for your car.Someone may come up to help you find them.
