Subarutex Posted October 28, 2005 Share Posted October 28, 2005 Yes, Noah got his plate yesterday. He called me at 4pm (pacific time) to tell me engine was in, just needed to do wiring and he was ready to rock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

northguy Posted October 28, 2005 Share Posted October 28, 2005 Hey Noah, where's the killer smile that's supposed to be in that picture? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbone Posted October 28, 2005 Share Posted October 28, 2005 Hey, wheres the engine? All it looks like there, is a intake and alternator sitting on the x-member Oh, I forgot, some of you with lifts have the engine still on the x-member :-p Sub-frame baby Glad you got the tranny in, now when you coming out?

Sweet82 Posted October 28, 2005 Share Posted October 28, 2005 Turbone is right, It looks like the engine is way down there? Is that what all lifted engine compartments look like? Not used to that look? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numbchux Posted October 28, 2005 Share Posted October 28, 2005 Turbone is right, It looks like the engine is way down there? Is that what all lifted engine compartments look like? Not used to that look? yep, they all look essentially like that it probably looks worse without the intake on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoahDL88 Posted October 28, 2005 Author Share Posted October 28, 2005 Hey Noah, where's the killer smile that's supposed to be in that picture? Still working on the wiring, when its running, i'll be smiling soo big it won't even be funny Just a heads up, that million wire junction box with the 10 mm bolt that connects the two halves, yeah, make sure that's tight and that will save quite a few headaches.

Turbone Posted October 29, 2005 Share Posted October 29, 2005 yep, they all look essentially like that it probably looks worse without the intake on it. No, not all look like that. There are some of us that have a sub frame built above the x-member that the engine mounts to. It brings it back up to the original position, and out of the water and muck.

NoahDL88 Posted October 30, 2005 Author Share Posted October 30, 2005 I seem to be having a small issue with the ignition relay, it should be grounding into the ECU, but when i apply 12 volts to the power side it dosnt' click :-\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted October 30, 2005 Share Posted October 30, 2005 I seem to be having a small issue with the ignition relay, it should be grounding into the ECU, but when i apply 12 volts to the power side it dosnt' click :-\ Have you verified that the relay works by giving it power and ground directly? Have you double checked that all the ground wires were done properly? I can't remember how many there are, something like three or four at least.

NoahDL88 Posted October 31, 2005 Author Share Posted October 31, 2005 so the pump works now, but i've not got spark the coil seems to be getting power but i'm stumped. Austin had mentioned a coil resistor that was on the legacy passenger strut tower, but i don't seem to see it on the schematic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Austin had mentioned a coil resistor that was on the legacy passenger strut tower, but i don't seem to see it on the schematic. There is a little black box unit related to the coil. I'm not sure what it does, as I've heard it called several different things, but you DO need it for the ignition system to function. It's a little box maybe 1.5" by 1.5" with four or five wires going to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You wouldn't happen to have a picture of it, so i know what i'm missing Are you talking about the Ignitor? i hope you are, cause i have that, the one that bolts to the firewall, where the spare would be if the legacy was a GL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could go look on your other wagon and find it. Oh wait, if you've got a Chilton manual, there's a picture of it in section 2-6. It's fig 17, and they refer to it as the ignitor assembly. Haynes' legacy manual has it in section 5-5, fig 9.3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShawnW Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Pull the codes out of the ecu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoahDL88 Posted October 31, 2005 Author Share Posted October 31, 2005 Pull the codes out of the ecu. Hmm, not a bad idea, how does one pull the codes on the OBD 1 subies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShawnW Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Same as the ea82 ones. Green and black connectors like usual. Just gotta have a LED on the check engine wire from the ECU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoahDL88 Posted October 31, 2005 Author Share Posted October 31, 2005 Awesome, i'll have to try that tomorrow, hopefully it points me in the right direction. I'm sure its a ground or power problem, everything worked like a champ when i took the motor out of the car. it was the DD for over a year.

ShawnW Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Yup, the LED just goes in line and ground it on the other side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoahDL88 Posted November 1, 2005 Author Share Posted November 1, 2005 Yup, the LED just goes in line and ground it on the other side. cool, i'm not so worried anymore, i have spark, and she runs. might even be able to take her on the road tomorrow, but there is still a lot of buttoning up to do, sensors, ignition switching and all that fun stuff. I'll definately get the check engine LED hooked up eventually, but i want to take her round the block first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

northguy Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 Well, Friday the 11th will mark the 11th month since I sent my money to John and still no progress. It would be super sweet to have been reimbursed by then. What do you say, John? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
