MasterVivi Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 Those seats are totally bad. The work you have done on this car is fantastic, I wish someday to be as awesome as you. I've learned a lot about cars in the past few months, and I hope to learn a LOT more in the near future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cars are going to steal a lot of money from you, and break, and run like s***, and frustrate you But when you get all the gremlins out, then it's the greatest thing ever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leesfer Posted May 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 btw, cyl 1+4 are a bank, and 2+3 are a bank. Really? I was talking to Scott and he recommended that 1 and 3 be tied together and 2 and 4 be tied together? You think that 1 and 4, 2 and 3 is better?

button Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 yes, 1+4 and 2+3. I accidentally wired a car the way you have your drawing and it does not work. I mean it will idle ok, and accelerate ok, unless the engine is under a load/boost/2500+rpm.a bank is the two cylinders that travel in unison. IE - they go up and down at the same time.

leesfer Posted November 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2012 It's been a long time since I have worked on my car I've hit a stand still with the electrical and with daylight savings not giving me any time to work on my car, I am waiting until I have a garage to finish it. Hopefully mid-December I will be moved into a new place and working again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterVivi Posted November 8, 2012 Report Share Posted November 8, 2012 Go man, go. I've been doing stuff to my car ever since we first talked. I've come a long way since then, and I'm still always learning more. Can't wait to see your updates soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rah Dude Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 daylight savings time does suck. by the time I get off work its already dark so I cant do anything to my car, no garage. great build.. wish I had the expenses and experience to do something like this lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aconro Posted November 15, 2012 Report Share Posted November 15, 2012 Great work so far. Your car looks awesome. I hope to get mine going again here soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leesfer Posted January 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2013 Welp I've finally got myself a garage, time to start working again I've sent my ECU back to Scott as I'm going to be using a MegaSquirt harness rather than the stock harness. The lack of documentation with the '86 was too much of a pain to work with so starting fresh will be nice. http://i1250.photobucket.com/albums/hh538/leesfer/IMG_20130118_182238_zps43082a09.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
