Its Alive !


I just got it running for the first time like two minutes ago. the first attempt i didnt have the distrubitor plug in and the distrubitor was turned way off....

but the second time it cranked right up and ran as smooth as glass with a cam lol...i had to shut it right off though cause i dont have any belts going to anything so i didnt want to over heat it.. hopefully i can take it on the first test drive tomorrow...

So what ended up being the problem? Did swapping out the wiring harnesses do the trick?

I told you it was the ECU relay...anyway...better check out that harness where you spliced in the TFI, I don't think wiggling the distributor should make the injectors open
