New Harness/ rewiring engine, Help rewiring engine Options

[m2736185]

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.

Yes, who knows why the ingition doesnt turn it off, but I am going to install the new harness and corss my fingers that it solves all the problems.

BTW it could just be the exhuast making me feel like I am going faster than I am, but it feels faster than my 5s.

Smaay: They had a blacktop swap in the car. It took me a whole to figure out, but it makes sense why they have the ae111 ecu and an external blacktop coil mounted next to the igniter.

The oil is the dirtiest oil I have ever seen and I think it may have been contaminated with gasoline. I bet its the same oil thats been in the engine since it was swapped out of whatever car it came from.


I still need to pick up a map sensor, igniter connector and diagnostic port from the junkyard then I can start the rewiring.

It doesnt seem too difficult. I hope I dont end up eating those words.
