89 MKIII 7MGTE- by the strut mount on the drivers side is the solenoid resistor. What does it do and is it necessary? I bought a car already modified and have rebuilt the engine. It appears whatever the solenoid resistor was connected to has been removed.
Solenoid resistor needed?

Is it the one labeled 28515 here: http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/EPC/291420/catalog.aspx?F=8404&P=1
If so, it's for the injectors and you do need it.... Unless the prev. owner swapped in some high impedance injectors. That's the only resistor I can think of in the location you're talking about.

I highly doubt it was removed. I can understand the PASSENGER side removal but if in fact it is the driver side i'm not sure how you would even start the car...last i looked at a WD of it, it is a required part.
That's it.
Thanks that was a big help. Just knowing it was necessary made me look closer and I found the plug way up under the igniter. I had looked "everywhere for it" to the point I figured it had been removed.
She cranked right up. I have bored it .020 and made lots of mods so I guess I should feel OK about this being the only thing that wasn't good to go.
Again, THANKS.
