All sorted for £25. The relay had burnt out and the vss was stealing the ground to the ECU or summat.
Anyway thanks to everyone for all of your help and advice, much appreciated from a very happy Pepperami.

Thought it was! Just so you know its the ecu that actually switches the earth side of most engine bits on these!

Pep,
Just a quick note, my Cosworth brain has a VSS signal it requires. At present I have it blanked off the the engine appears to run.
When I spoke to the guys on the Cosworth forum, someone who was well gemmed up said it did need a signal otherwise I will start seeing problems as it is learning to run again. However he did mention connecting it to the Tacho so it sees a signal.
My question to you is what is your VSS, where is it connected, how much etc, incase my solution does not work etc.
Cheers

Pepps VSS is the RJES one and fits in the little mounting on the back of the original speedo (where VW fit the cruise control sensor) or you can use an inline one that goes on the speedo cable...
3 wires, earth, switched power and signal....
Oh and Richard is away until 20th IIRC
