ok, i found some info on the check engine light. it could be 4 things. 1. no power to ecu on pins +b and igsw. i have 12 volts here no problem. 2. no ground for the ecu on pin e1. i didnt have a ground, jumped it in the diag box to ground, no dice. nothing changed. 3. the engine light...

When i removed mine it acutally took 2 people, One bumping the starter, and the other using the breaker bar method, we had to bump the starter and jerk the bolt simultaneously. It was no fun. Good luck! Oh, you can do this at a junkyard, just take a jump box, and hotwire the starter if...

UPDATE: Ive done the CEL test, No dice. When jumping T and E1 (using the TSRM for reference) The check engine light doesnt blink or anything. The check engine light is on as soon as i start the car. I checked the continuity between the TE1 and TE2 connectors between the DIAG and the ECU...

Cold start idles around 1100, after warming up, no more than 700.

Update: I changed out the spark plugs with ngk 6097 plugs, gapped to .025 Still rapid mis fires when holding around 2400 rpm. Check engine light remained on, Timing results yielded ~17* when fully warmed up, not sure why. Q1, How do i check the CEL on a 1j, Did some searching, nothing...

Update: I upped the fuel pressure, hooked up the stock o2 sensor (just placed it in the threaded hole in the dp) and ordered NGK's The fuel pressure is now at 45lbs with vac off, at idle running ~31psi. The Timing is ~15' and im not sure how to adjust it, or if i even can. (timing process...

Thanks Frank!

Ive considered putting in new plugs, I will turn the FP up tomorrow as well. I have checked the coils out already, they are almost perfect, just a bit of discoloration but absolutely no cracks! What brand and type (heat range) plugs should i use? Im ultimatly going to run about a bar or so...

Awesome! Thanks for the input guys, i really appreciate it! The car will free rev until redline, and while driving as long as i dont press the gas pedal past 20 to 30 percent it will run up to redline no problem. Its just when i go full throttle at around 2800 or so (i assume thats where the...

I have been officially paid! Im so happy he didnt just screw everyone over! Thanks spaniard, and 2yoduhJZ for relaying messages!

yep. Im pissed. Sorry abe, i just pm'd you before i saw this post has made its way back to the top of the page. Is there anyone in his area that could confront him about this?

it will stiffen and loosen the dampening rate, but will not change the ride height.

O.K. Now im really pissed!!!! I was lead on by both spaniard (Jonathan) and Honestabe into thinking that i will be issued a refund for the machine work i had to have done. This has been A MONTH AGO!!!!! I swear, giving people the runaround is FUCKING BULLSHIT! Ive called Jonathon several...

No, its not that its bad, its that its frustrating. But i know from experience that when its all done (or so you think) it pays off ten fold. Reaping the rewards of hard work and dedication for a car you absolutely love is True Joy.

It really sucks that you can sum up my entire life in 10 easy to read steps. I hate this.

well... thats interesting. Do you think that i could just put it in place with the bolts threaded losley, then tighten the bolts up evenly?

I have a problem. Wen installing my new isuzu timing belt i find that the tensioner is not tensioning anything. The belt is very loose, and im not sure what i can do about it. I have removed the hydraulic apparatus located below the pulley. It doesnt move, im not sure if its supposed to...
