Now that you said that Brenton, I did mount a wire behind the intake manifold, on a 10mm bolt the wire had an end that excepted that bolt, n screwed it tight to back of manifold. From the harness Ok just tested coil with battery + - and had a very very small spark on coil wire ( discharge ) end, to screwdriver, is this spark supposed to be big n bold, or barely able to see it????? Cause that's what it was...really had to look for the spark???? K man, I am gettin one tomorrow.....keep my fingers crossed, the scary thing is, if this doesn't work, I don't know what else it could be???? Just checked power to ECU, and it lights up like a Christmas tree...definitely power to ECU. |
