Thanks again for helping me to get up and running. The new injector harness's are in and working fine. As long as my hands are greasy, any other cheap modifications besides that IPR spring shim trick I can do to help it out?
I will be picking up or ordering the gasket today and putting it in as soon as I get my hands on it, then I will know. The wire through portion of the gasket was melted as well as the connector. It does seem as though more than one was shut down, the scanner only said wiring, cyl #2. My buddy...
When the injector or injectors were shorting, I could barely keep it running at all at 500rpm, floored it would barely move in reverse. When not shorting and producing the CEL it seemed to have plenty of power. I think i will take your advise though and unplug the EBPs anyway when i put it back...
The problem is solved. The front under VC harness was toast as well as the connector part of the gasket. Melted to look like cheese in the micro. It's a miracle it could run at all. Thanks Clem and fellow strokers.
codes
My buddy just left with his scanner. Here are the results, two codes thrown. Exhaust pressure feedback sensor, and number two cyl injector wiring fault. That would be drivers side? The exhaust feedback sensor part shows bad all the time, the injector wiring fault is bad when problem...
The harness's are all clean, plugged in, and not burnt. Seems to be looking fuel or fuel pump related. It will be interesting to see what codes show up when my buddy gets here tomorrow with his scanner. Lets see, now i have a spare IDM, 2 new harness's. I guess I will stow away for a rainy day...
increased pressure
Pulled it in the garage this morning and it was doing it's code and 1/2 power thing as usual. I realized i never pulled the VC harness's on the driver side to check. The back one that is is under the turbo tube had some caked on greasy looking crap on it which i sprayed with...
Hey Clem,
Thanks for askin. My two under VC harness's came in. I thought I would pull it in the garage and unslip each connector, and use an ohmmeter between the pins, ( i assume top and bottom ) and if I get a big variance on any set i would start there, if that method would work. Someone...
fuel pressure
I have no service manual, so I am assuming that would be taken on the side of the fuel pressure regulator. I guess there would be a gauge available somewhere for it? If it is too low, does that mean the regulator needs to be replacing or the fault lies back further?
not oil
Just changed the oil to Rotellat 15w-40 and.... no change, still happening.
Tried to see if I could smell burned wires in the oil fill hole. I couldn't really tell. Although when the new harness's come I will pull the valve covers to closely inspect. Clem, also tried unpluggin wire...
