Hey Nick,


Sorry to hear that you had to go to that trouble to get the cat off. At least it can be ruled out as the cause of your trouble. I didn't think of the coil... That could be causing it to run lousy. In the Regina system, the power stage and the coil are an integrated unit. Unfortunately, they don't seem as rugged as their Bosch counterpart. Take a look at the FAQ regarding a failing power stage. http://www.brickboard.com/FAQ/700-900/EnginePerformanceSymptoms.htm#EngineCutsOutatSpeedIgnitionPowerStageFailure
But before condemning your coil, clean up the grounds and see if that helps. I would put the coil first, fuel pump second, and ECT last. What you have doesn't seem like a bad ECT.

Regards, Jon
