What the f***

WTF?! I can't see that being true surely? Scam?

And an ECU?

The Imp was revolutionary in 1963 but I didnt know about the ECU. Maybe I should check the ECUs on mine.

Q. Will this fit on my particular cars model ?
A. If your car is equipped with electronic fuel injection, it will. 99% of cars manufactured after in or after 1988 are equipped with a fuel injection. It will however not work on turbocharged Hillman imp vehicles.

yeah, right!

ok maybe i read it wrong but was the imp made after 1988, cus i am sure it was not. and did it come with electronic fuel pump, or a one strapped to the engine running off the cam

;D ;D ;D ;D

Load of sh*te. What we see here is the scam advert equivelant of a mail merge or similar. What they've done is typed up a standard page telling you all this curse word about what it'll do to your motor, then they've taken a list of cars and slotted their names into the blanks. For a start, Imps don't have ECUs, fuel injection that would require an ECU, or (except in rare DIY cases where turbos have been adapted) turbochargers, so why they'd feel the need to warn you about not working on a turbo'd Imp is beyond me (of course that's because the same page is used to con people into buying miracle performance cures for a number of other cars).

Plus, why do they need to tell us about cars being made after 1988? I grew up very close to the Linwood factory, still live near it as well, regularly drive up that way, and I can promise you that Linwood hasn't been active since a good while before 1988, certainly not building Imps, which they made from 1963 to 1976! ;D ;D ;D

Oh, and those power figures, take a look all you Imp owners, apparently our sub 1 litre engines (which as standard produce between 39 and 55bhp, not much but tuning can produce a good bit more, plus the Imp's a very light car) produce in excess of 200bhp in unmodified trim! ;D ;D ;D ;D If my Imp produced that I'd be too exstatic to be worring about 25 extra horses! ;D ;D ;D

There are so many errors here that we'd be here all night if I kept listing them, so what I'm doing is emailing the nice chaps and saying I'm interested in purchasing one of their miracle cure chips, but to make sure I'm up to the job could they please send me some pictures of an Imp engine bay fitted with the chip to help me with the installation! ;D ;D ;D I'll post the reply if I get one, since I'm sure you'd all be interested in Mr D. Turpin, the head of the company's response! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

The plot thickens! There is no way to get an email address off of them, they're head office is not opened to the public apparently, nor can it be used to return faulty goods. The only way to contact them is through some form on the site! Very clever, so they can't be traced when their goods either don't turn up or are a load of curse word, and they can't be asked to give more details. Devious b*stards!

;D ;D ;D ;D
