IMPCO FCV SHORT CIRCUIT
Information supplied by Gas Parts (NSW) Pty Ltd
PROBLEM
It has come to our attention that a short circuit in a Fuel Control Valve
(FCV) can cause damage to the output transistor inside the following
Impco processors:
* AFCP-1 (Fuel Control Processor) "Gold Computer"
* ADP (Adaptive Digital Processor) " Black Computer"
* CDP (Commander Digital Processor) "Small Black Computer"
In almost all cases the "computer" is damaged beyond repair and within
a very short period of time.
SOLUTION:
Before fitting a new computer (AFCP-1,ADP or CDP ),we recommend
the following to determine the condition of the Fuel Control Valve (FCV):
* Remove the connector/plug from the computer (ie AFCP-1,ADP
or CDP).
* Check the resistance betweem the Yellow and Purple wires at the
connector/plug.
note : on CDP , this should be done at harness connector/plug.
* If the resistance is below 10 ohms the Fuel Control Valve (FCV)
must be replaced with a new unit.
NOTE : The Commander Digital Processor comes complete with
an FCV at no extra cost.
