GTFC's "What are these plugs" thread..., Updated to Pics #2 Options

[soulshadow]

If you starter won't start take a look at the starter relay. Make sure one wire is for the 12V+, Neutral start switch, GROUND, and one that goes to the starter.

Im guessing that the 12V+ wire isn't connected to the battery. You will have to redo your relay again.

God, dam why the heck didn't you do it yourself in the first place?
Don't you feel mad that some thieves stole your stuff?

hmmmm, didnt know about the fuses on the passenger side...i'll check those first thing tomorrow.

like i said, there's still a lot of extra plugs and i got pics of all of them, but they dont look like they should be keeping the engine from at least cranking.

we hooked up a 12v straight to the starter and got it going, but it wasnt making any spark

yeah everything about my swap so far pisses me off...my first and MAIN mistake was getting a mr2 clip, and then taking it to a "family friend" type of shop first.

[Rjb23]

Did you plug the little black wire into the starter? There should be 2 wires that go to the starte the one that bolts on and then there is a small one that clips in kinda like the one of the pic you posted.

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG i just opened the fuze box and made sure everything was connected good...didnt think i really did anything worthwhile...i put the key in and EVERYTHING WORKS....i didnt try starting it yet, but OMG what a great feeling, im out of breath from running inside to type this...WOW

[gtfc115]

the blinkers work now, the radio, the vents...i heard the fan on the radiator turn on...

now i need to know what kind of things i should do before i try and start it.

there is one major thing i know of...the pic explains it


so thats 1 issue...another, i KNOW i will need a new clutch line because when i got the car towed, i noticed immediately that something was leaking, and when you push the clutch in, fluid squirts out of the line, which i can easily disconnect (not good)

ummmm...O yeah, i dont know if the engine even has oil in it...i cant find my dipstick...i have 2 dipsticks that they gave me in a box with all the extra parts

[gtfc115]

the fuel pump relay is making a really loud buzzing sound

[Rjb23]

Where is your fuel hose that goes from the fuel raill to near the throttle body I don't see it in that pic it should be like 3 or 4 inches long.

[gtfc115]

man this thing's a mess...

sorry, im a 3sgte noob...im ashamed i dont even know where the fuel line is
(sorry for the blurry pics, i thought they came out better)

damn dood. .that motor is CLEAN! i cant believe u were going to sell all that.

its hard to see anything thats not hooked up from those pics.

[gtfc115]

anyone think i should try starting it?

im just worried about that hole where gas leaks out. i have that screw in there, but that doesnt seem like the best solution. i dont know what should be in there though.

also, with no dipstick, there's probably a hole where oil will leak out. i'll have to jack up the car today and try to find where the dipstick goes...

[Rjb23]

No get the fuel leak fixed first, and the missing dipstick isn't going to hurt anything.

you could start a major fire ...buy that cold start injector hose and a new dip stick tube form toyota before you try to start it anything

i fixed the leak...tried starting it, and i get no spark. it turns over and over, but nothing.

[Rjb23]

Do you for sure have no spark or are you just saying that because it wont fire up?

[gtfc115]

took a plug out and it wasnt sparking.

also, i dont know if it makes any difference, but i checked, and its not throwing any codes.

[lagos]

bust out the multimeter.... put the key to ON, and start testing the harness plugs that go to your coil and your ignitor, write down all the voltages you get from each of the wires and post them here.

[gtfc115]

k here's what i got:

the larger black plug with 5 wires
1: 12v
2: 0v
3: 12v
4: 0v
5: 12v

smaller plug with 2 wires
1: 12v
2: 0v

[lagos]

sounds about right, just off the top of my head. are you sure the harness plug is connected to the bottom of the distributor (its hard to see, you have to get your hand behind the distributor cap and feel around) and that the cap and rotor are new?

*sigh*

boy im starting to get angry that i spent so much money at that shop for them to leave so many plugs UNPLUGGED. GOD...the plug was there, but when i pushed on it...it snapped into place.

they arent brand new either...but we'll see what happens tomorrow.
