Well she turns over, and I don't melt anymore grounds wires now that I have a 1ga from B- to Block and a 2ga from B- to chassis :D

But it's not firing, so Im checking plugs for fuel and spark, I suspect no injector firing, but ill have to see.


So so close. and yet no VROOOMM

that should make life easier, stand alones are always easier to work with then splicing factory crap, and you can still use factory sensors as well.

That coil pack conversion is supposed to be slick. Alittle pricy but cool.

Also I just finished redoing the whole harness, and since yours is still in the works, I highly recommend you undo the whole harness and strip out whatever you don't need and check all the connections and continuity. It will save you SO MUCH hassle.

If the uploader folder is all good Ill post some pics of mine tonight.

Update as of todays date on the post ;D

Car runs injector problem was interesting to say the least.

- slight leak at header, just need to retorque.
- Finish wiring manual fans.
- wire up VSS and Dakota Digital box
- Replace power steering line (cause the fucking shit I made leaks at all the joints >:( ) anyone wanna buy some Earls power steering line, I have like 6 feet in perfect shap, with 45* SAE ends for 5/16
- injector retainer clips (cause they slide out and leak ::) )
- exhaust turn down (right under the car ;D) plus another O2 bung

but I plan to give my shake down this weekend, damn almost 6 months since I have driven her .... hope she doesn't break ::) :o
