Some progress woowhoo!! got pump, regulator membrane, injector, lines fuel filter, after having more running issues that seam to get worse I cleaned out the egr system everything cleaned... Scrubbed out the intake manifold passages with a brush and carb cleaner while on motor didn't crank for a bit but most likely weak battery and was flooded. let it sit for a few hours with battery on a charger and it fired up! let it warm up and seams to idle ok took it for a spin around the block and 2 miles out of town only problems I seam to be having is squeal on a new gatorback belt (figure it stretched and needs tighten) and a bouncing rev from 1500 to 2k when coming from moving to idle after a little bit it calms down. Well see how it acts in the morning! sorry didn't get pics of the drive maybe the morning run!

Still having trouble with the tps same stuff as this guy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cOiUcN3OwG0 I have 2 more isc motors and 1more tps to work with. my isc currently on there stays contacted with the screw. Been reading http://geometroforum.com/topic/3622606/1/ and http://geometroforum.com/topic/1341780/1/ and the fsm still confused as to what I'm doing wrong I think I'm close though |

Thank you! I'm learning alot but it's been pretty stressful with these pop up issues and the electronic idle stuff.After around 2400 into it I would really like just to be able to drive it. these are pretty fun cars to drive. Edited by Panzerjunkie, Nov 16 2013, 07:38 PM.

So some progress the fuel gauge now reads full when I filled the tank. I'm sure it's from cleaning the sender like crazy also I taped the solder contacts on the sender with an iron and some fresh solder to make sure. Idle is still junk looking at this http://geometroforum.com/topic/3622606/1/ still confused I guess not sure how to deal with the plunger been tilting the tps to draw the plunger back disconnect the isc then tilt tps to sead volts then reconnect isc well at lease the fuel gauge is working maybe I should head to the pull n pay and grab a TB with everything un messed with not just the idle stop screw. |
