Hey all,
I have a 1989 EA that has been fitted with a 4.0l. I have noticed that the car seems to be a little heavy on fuel. Is this because it is a 3-speed or do i need a 4.0l computer? Also how do i fit a smartlock control pad to my car?

Not sure on the fuel issue but the smartlock pads are a pain in the **** to get working, its much easier to go for an aftermarket central locking kit.

No the car has got plenty of power, keep in mind that i have a c0omplete ED that i can harness for parts, for central locking.
