It has 5 connectors and a black round plug.

The 5 connectors go on the injectors and the round plug pushes up from a cut out in the head, when you put the new one in, I always just wipe a tiny bit of oil on the O ring just to help it in and prevent the o ring rolling. It just pushes in.

Then plug the loom back in.

The red plug goes to the ECU. Make sure you disconnect the battery. There's 2 Pozzi screws hold the ecu in, undo those and the whole ecu just slides up and out. Then unplug the red plug and give it a clean. (There may. It be any oil in there)

You need to check first.

what are your thoughts on the 2000rpm 'growl' and vibration?

Not sure Mate, you have one of those new fangled automatic boxes fitted.

Cheers

Does it only "growl" when driving.

If you have the stick in N and hold at 2000rpm can you hear it then??

Does it feel as if the engine is holding back (being held back) ?

no, its just an extra noise and very slight vibration. always around 2000rpm

I had something similar, when driving try VERY carefully pulling the handbrake and see if the noise stays or goes.

I did shoes, retaining pins, cable and oil seal whilst I was in there....solved it.

DO NOT YANK THE HANDBRAKE OR PULL IT ALL THE WAY UP

tried the handbrake test this morning, didnt seem to make a difference but then only had a quick attempt due to traffic. it does make the noise in neutral though.

Would need to hear it really to be able to help more......
