Remlor Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 (edited) I changed my throttle body on my car, before I did this the engine ran fine. After the change it would not start. I was told that the computer was not working so I changed that, they my mechanic told me to change the ignition box so I changed that. I think he doesn't know what he is doing. I am at my wits end does anyone have a complete wiring diagram from the computer to all the sensors in the engine this would be helpful and how to check them all. Thanks In advance Remlor Miami PS Or a good mechanic in the Miami area that knows these cars Edited May 16, 2008 by Remlor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAinsworth Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 Remy, did you drain some of the coolant before the TB rebuild? If not, you probably flooded the intake with coolant. Jimmy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy There was some coolant there but we dried it all up. Even if there is no fuild of any kind there now, would it not start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vbrad511 Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 You'll also find that 95% of mechanics out there won't have the solid info on a SQ. Better off to post the issues here and get help from the folks that live the cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dcrasta Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 There is a ground wire that attaches to the TB. That is needed or the ECI will not work. IF you turn the key does it crank? If it doesnt crank, there is a wire (single female spade) that connects to the solenoid (Starter). This can vibrate off. IF you look under the intake you may see it or the 'empty' connector (male spade) sitting there. If you want wiring diagrams (entire manual) go to http://www.starguestgarage.com and select the 88 Factory Service manual. Its in PDF form.
