New Harness/ rewiring engine, Help rewiring engine Options

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.

GRATS!!!!!

and as to the pump.. do tell!!!

i thought i had posted earlier. that ECU is for a corolla or MR2 with a 4A-GE in it. no wonder you were having so many problems. looks to me like someone thought they could get more power by using that ECU. who knows???

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.
