    Noise filter wire?

    A noise filter is only there to keep RF noise out of your other electronics. It should be pluged in, and if its not you will hear a whine in your stereo. But its possible it could ground other things. I would have to look it up on the wiring schematic. I'll take a look at it later. Just...

    losing coolant somewhere, not over heating. need help

    Have you checked the heater core? Is there any leaking in the cab. Or the vaccume actuator for it on the firewall? Could that have been cracked at sometime? Maybe leaking there. Cant you get one of the dye's for the cooling system from auto zone that hit with a UV or Black light will show u...

    Code 31

    Honestly I dont know for sure if that would mess with your frequency range, but I believe e2 is a ground line, and that can mess alot of things up if not correctly attached. I would check the wiring in these old cars anyway, and replace what needs to be replaced by soldering in new pieces, and...

    Coil pack ground

    Agreed but a simple unplug of the old connector and then plugging it back in, he should not have that problem. Unless he somehow shorted out his coils in the process. The origional quesiton was where is the grounding point, at which an answer was given. And grounding the bracket the cop plugs...

    LMFAO. That is just funny. :biglaugh: Glad I got my MHG from you, just hope it wasnt one on the floor. LOL

    Struggling under acceleration

    You said you did a rebuild on the motor, did you do anything to the TPS such as move it, remove it, or is it exactly the same as it was when you pulled the throttle body off the intake? Reason I say possibly wiring, is he did a rebuild on the motor. The wires are prolly 18+ years old, and...

    gurgling noise in morning?

    And its possible he would have a hole, but he would notice coolant levels eventually going down. If that isnt the case, he prolly needs to burp his system, and or back flush it to clean out the crap that is in the water jackets of the motor and heater core. Over time things like calcium create...

    gurgling noise in morning?

    Wow, you pointed out that it is MAINLY FOR WHEN STARTING. But it is also in use during operating conditions below 90-95 deg F. Grim, you should verrify your own work too. That way you would have something intelligent to come back with. This is becoming a battle of whitts against unarmed...

    No spark no trouble codes help?

    And my point of that is all u should need, was referring to the mounting point. Where to ground the stupid thing in its stock location. Is there misinformation there? Or are u just trying to prove your smarter than I am. Spoon feeding info to people, thats a friggin joke right? All you have...

    No spark no trouble codes help?

    OK JJ, where in my information saying there is a ground line from the intake side of the coil mounting bracket to the head am I wrong? If he has power at the coil pack and didnt cut any harnesses, all I can gather is either he has a full set of bad coils, or there is no ground. Understandably...

    gurgling noise in morning?

    Remove the cold start injector from the intake manifold, place the nozzle in a safe container and crank the engine. If the temperature of the engine is below 95 degrees, the cold-start injector should spray. If it does not, connect a test light to each of the two terminals of the injector and...

    gurgling noise in morning?

    The cold start valve is essentially constructed the same as the regular fuel injectors. The main difference is that the cold start valve injection time is measured in seconds rather than in milliseconds like the regular injectors. The cold start valve receives power from the double relay...

    Struggling under acceleration

    He pulled the codes, but that doesnt mean that is exactly what is wrong. It just means the ECU isnt reading that sensor correctly. Could be in the wiring easily. And checking the wires is alot cheaper than replacing a sensor. And then do a test on the sensor while your there too.

    gurgling noise in morning?

    Then explain and educate me. I will have no problem listening to your information about this specific car. And I know its sense. next time i'll put cents in and see who notices. All im asking for is that you tell me how im wrong, and educate me as to what the purpose is. Cause I have the...

    overheating and other probs. help.

    Well im taking all of the interior out, and going to actually repaint the metal in there. Then im going to put down some dyna mat for heat, and sound dissipation. Im not running carpet in the car, or really much of an interior. Drivers and pass seats ( 25lb race seats ) harnesses, and a cage...

    No spark no trouble codes help?

    Well your awefully good at pointing out that im wrong, but yet you offer no input as to why i am wrong. Or help the person asking it in the first place. Do u seriously have nothing better to do than follow me around when I give someone an IDEA as what to do, and tell me im wrong, then offer no...

    gurgling noise in morning?

    Ok that just seemed to prove my point right there. The cold start injector is there to help fire the car, and produce that richened mixture to reach operating temperature. At which point it isnt needed anymore, and thus stops working. Causing the idle to kick down. Similar to the way a choke...

    Struggling under acceleration

    I just looked at another thread that made me think of this, but there is a brown wire that comes off E2 and goes all the way to the AFM with connections to the CPS, and ECU temp switch. I would check that. I had an issue similar and when I looked, i had cracks in my wire loom, and exposed and...

    overheating and other probs. help.

    It was the brown line that went from the AFM, to the ecu thermo switch, to the TPS, to the ECU line E2. Once I repaired the damaged line by the thermostat where the ecu thermo switch and AFM come together, It started working just fine. Sorry if i was not clear enough in my exact fix. It was...

    overheating and other probs. help.

    Well let me double check my core when I pull it out within the next few days (not working on it this weekend) but if its in good shape and not clogged at all, I could sell it to ya or something. Not much tho, cause I really dont need it. Im taking all the heating and air out of my car, its...
