Hi all, 10 year's ago l purchased boxes of bits containing the remnants of a 1999 996sps minus engine. I later found a freshly rebuilt verified sps engine and spent many hours restoring it into a lovely LOOKING bike, boredom set in, other projects loomed and to cut a long story short it's spent the last 10 years as a very expensive ornament in my living room. Time has come to finally get this thing running and where it should be. Question It currently has a 916 wiring loom slapped on it to make it LOOK complete. I have the p8 ecu that came with the engine. I have a 996 wiring loom. And a 3 phase reg/rec. Is there anything I'm missing and will the stock loom work, the only difference i can see looking at the Haynes manual is wiring provision for power modules? Many thanks Shaun (Essex)
Short answer is no. As well as the power modules, the SPS runs a rpm sensor and a crank position sensor. The 996 uses only one to do both functions. The SPS is also running sequential fuel injection, bringing in the second injector when needed. The 996 fires both injectors together. You need the SPS loom and the throttle body wiring to if you don’t have it.
Many thanks for that, I have in the last couple of hours worked out there's a timing sensor so compared the pin out on the ecu plug to those in the Haynes manual and it is indeed a sps loom (25 pins) that I have, although it's in a sorry state but I can sort that. The injector wiring is complete on the throttle bodies. Sooo I believe all I need is the power modules, amplifiers I assume (connected in line to the coils) Could you confirm please, and if so does any on hear have any. Again thanks
