    Stood on Brakes...Car Won't Start | 7MGTE

    ..get it sorted? Not really...I just changed the failure mode. Until I open something and a bolt or nut falls out, I'm expecting to be cruising one day and all the sudden be thrown into a barrel roll and wrapping the car around a galvanized traffic signal pole.

    Stood on Brakes...Car Won't Start | 7MGTE

    Sorry to disappoint Boosted, but I've moved to Houston. Well, I moved to Michigan, then to Virginia, then to Houston. (Status is a little behind. I haven't logged in in a couple years.) You don't have to shovel hot or humid. I will say, I loved Bel Air. Loved the people, the climate, the...

    Stood on Brakes...Car Won't Start | 7MGTE

    Alright! I got it started! I took Grandavi's suggestion and turned the engine over by hand; probably dozen times in each direction. Well about 8-9 cycles in, I heard a sound equivalent to a bolt being dropped into an empty coffee can, with a bit thicker metal. Not from a great height, maybe...

    Stood on Brakes...Car Won't Start | 7MGTE

    Battery is fine. The battery holder 'fixture' had it in there rock solid; connections to the battery were all good. Remember: it made the thunk while sitting completely stationary, so it wasn't anything in the trunk. The thunk came from the front. I was hoping it was a ground issue, but...

    It took me a bit to figure out what the hell you were rambling on about...and then I saw it. I think goliath might have an insect problem on his hands...a big one... »fo

    Driver Side Foot Well Wiring

    I am going to take a picture of the whole setup and all the wires eventually. Funny thing is is that the boxes have absolutely no identification on them whatsoever. I am going to buy a Garmin C550 right now :icon_bigg so possibly when I get back. »fo

    Driver Side Foot Well Wiring

    Okay, I just took out the one box, and another smaller box behind it. I have no idea what these boxes are, but I turned the car on, and the stock boost gauge pegs at the top...immediately. All of these different wires, are all connected in some fashion (via IDC) to the white/black wire coming...

    Driver Side Foot Well Wiring

    I have another picture. This is the other end of the conduit. (It only goes for about 8".) 1) There are 2, small like 20-22 gauge wires coming what feels like the firewall, into the top connector you see. (They look like red and yellow; coming out from the electrical tape up top.) 2) That...

    Driver Side Foot Well Wiring

    Its pitch black here in East Texas, otherwise I'd go out there right now. I have (I believe) all the service records and everything for the car, dating back to like 94, and nothing got my attention, although that old lady might be trying to hide something... I don't think that I have lost...

    Driver Side Foot Well Wiring

    I have an image. See the wires coming out of the conduit up top? Each one of those taps into a wire on the other connector (Yes, that is the correct way to spell it...) from the door. (There are two connectors from the door, one of them is pictured below and the conduit wires are still tapped...

    Driver Side Foot Well Wiring

    On the driver side, by the fuse panel are all the wires from the driver side door. (All 28-30 wires come in through those blue connectors.) Coming from the cabin, I presume, are some solid colored wires mooching of off (tapped into) the wiring harness from the door.(These wires are in a conduit...

    If you could have any aftermarket part what would it be?

    I thought this thread was if you could have something shipped to your door today, performance or not (possibly free of charge?), what would it be? Ease and accessibility aside. All of these things can be bought; Autozone, Japan, etc. »fo
