starquestJOE Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 well i dont know if this is the right place but, Since last sunddays fathers day car show i entered. I started to do a full wire tuck. Its bein a slow go with my back. This is what i have so far. pulled the fenders off and unplugged everything. Then my friend pushed the harness back and i pulled it out the farthest hole back on the upper rail. did the same thing on both sides http://i713.photobucket.com/albums/ww135/starquestJOE/P6250013.jpg http://i713.photobucket.com/albums/ww135/starquestJOE/P6250015.jpg The only thing now in the bay are the MAFT....little black box http://i713.photobucket.com/albums/ww135/starquestJOE/P6250014.jpg And all my MSD stuff http://i713.photobucket.com/albums/ww135/starquestJOE/P6250016.jpg So far nothing had to be cut and lenghtened. And this is how the bay looks as of today http://i713.photobucket.com/albums/ww135/starquestJOE/P6250018.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funky Phil Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 I understand if you got mucho cashola already in your pipes but if not you should use this oppurtunity to convert to an evo front mount and rotate the TB. Might also go alittle more booya with the turbo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

88TSI_Rob Posted June 27, 2009 Report Share Posted June 27, 2009 The best wire tuck I've seen on a G54B was a custom lowered Might Max on airbags. It was the NA engine with a Weber carb, but he went to great lengths to hide all the wiring and vacuum lines. The engine looked like it was just floating in the engine bay. I think the pics were on MightyD50.com, but that website was recently hacked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starquestJOE Posted June 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2009 It would happen to be Bright green with silver flames from PA. if so i love that truck. and every show i see it at, i tell the guy he need a turbo hangin off the one side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technology Posted June 28, 2009 Report Share Posted June 28, 2009 There's your problem right there VV http://i713.photobucket.com/albums/ww135/starquestJOE/P6280013.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starquestJOE Posted June 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2009 (edited) well i kind fold the problem. Car with not start unless you unhook the injectors. Turn it over for 30sec til it starts. then plug the injectors back in and it stays running. But at 2000 rpm's. if you unplug the isc it will idil fine, but you hit the gas and it die's and will not restart until you unhook the injectors again. So i put the whole front end back on the car. Just finishing up putting the grill back on and its starts raining. No big deal right? WELL i go to put the windows up and they wont go up !!!!!!!! WT........ CONQUEST-3 JOE-0 Technology i ran for 3 years like that. the only real change is the harness is on the outside now. i never had i problem running them like that before Edited June 28, 2009 by starquestJOE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technology Posted June 29, 2009 Report Share Posted June 29, 2009 Nah, the high idle and super rich condition is a bad CTS or connection. It's grounded out somewhere I bet. It's either that or a bad mass air sensor, but if you can drive it like that without any major hickups or stuttering it's mos def the CTS or it's wire.

strang3majik Posted June 29, 2009 Report Share Posted June 29, 2009 sounds like what mine did...it would rev up to 2000 once you got it started, then, once it hit the first tick on the temp gauge, the idle would drop to normal, and everything would be fine. It was the CTS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starquestJOE Posted June 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2009 cts ? is that the same as the ISC? And the only thing i can come up with is i went to manual fan set-up. could that have anything to do with it. Maybe the ecu doest no what the temp is anymore.

It has two prongs on it at a right angle from each other...it sits right side up and down near the number 1 & 2 runner And, yes...that could have something to do with it...could've rid the wires that go to it by accident :confused0024: Edited June 29, 2009 by strang3majik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starquestJOE Posted June 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2009 bad cts sounds like it could be the problem. And as for the clutch fan, i search for an hour now and cant find anything but for sales. I know i'm need the first person to go to clutch fan set-up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strang3majik Posted June 29, 2009 Report Share Posted June 29, 2009 a bunch of people have...a matter a fact...I'd love to... but...I don't know what you did. You didn't cut the wires at all, did you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
