Picked up another celica today! However it needs work...a lot of work. I am trying to get this one running and make it my daily driver so I can prepare the 95 vert for the 3sgte swap.
Anyways, here is the story behind this celica...apparently the engine was sputtering over 45MPH so this lady was having her (crazy) fiance work on it. Things ended badly and he didnt want her driving the car so he unplugged and did god knows what to every wire in the engine. I will try to post pictures tomorrow. I am familiar with 5s engine, but the 7A seems foreign to me. The celica is a 1994 GT the 7a, however the engine was replaced with a 1996 7a engine and tranny. I tried starting it today, but the starter would not engaged. The lady stated it had started before. This post has been edited by m2736185: Feb 20, 2012 - 9:42 PM |

She Lives!
I put in the new ECU for the 7A, fresh gas, checked the pressure of the gas (26-34 PSI). With the help of starter fluid and a few tries until the battery was almost dead it started up. Runs 100x better with the 7A ecu. I guess the previous owners that had the blacktop in there left the exhaust the had on there. Its super loud it make the 7a feel like its faster than my 5s. Only scary part was after I ran the car for a test drive around the block...I took the key out of the ignition and you would think the car would turn off right? Nope, I ran over to the battery and unhooked the battery cables and still nothing. I was about to pull the cables from the dizzy but it finally turned off. Still gotta put in the new harness Figure out why the fuel pump doesnt turn on without my jumping it. This post has been edited by m2736185: Mar 18, 2012 - 2:28 PM |
