GAAAAW! I just want to drive my SPFI swap!


Recommended Posts

84 GL wagon

 

Original EA81 motor

 

D/R 4 spd trans

 

6 inch lift installed

 

EA82 SPFI converted 87 harness/91 Loyale Intake and ECU.

 

So after finally sourcing a radiator, and discovering that I needed to switch 2 wires to make my 87 Disty wokr for the 91 ECU, it finally runs.

 

I spend another few hours wiring in the Temp, Oil, VSS, And CEL(ECS) light inside the dash I get on to the exhaust. Bolted on a whole Loyale exhaust. Fit perfect with the lift, hits the mustache bar slightly. Installed skidplate. Went to DMV to get trip permit(temp tags)till I can get ahold of the guy I bought it from and get the lost title form filled.

 

Then......Leaky water pump. So I order one today. It aint too bad, so I am gonna just keep her full of water and do a little wheeling.

 

Nope......Now, the SPFI fuel pump I swapped in isn't working. I think it is jsut hte pump, as I can feel it actually *click* when the D-check mode cy cles the pump. But no whirring or pumping, it just makes a bit of a click.

 

DAMNNNN.......just venting:mad:

Everyone has one of those days... I stipped an exhaust stud hole today finishing the exhaust on my brat, and I also discovered a coolant leak under the carb, and in the process of fixing that I stripped a carb mount stud hole too...

 

I did get my rear suspension all welded up and back together and finished the exhaust though... :banana:
