    Non ABS W58 into ABS Shell?????

    I have a non ABS W58, it came from a non-ABS car. I have put it into my 88 NA MKIII that has ABS and I am getting the ABS light because there is no ABS sensor on the transmission. My question, before I pull the tranny to look, do all trannys have the skid control rotor installed and do I just...

    88 GE Injectors not firing

    OK....Im going to close this thread....found the issue.... In the beginning when I swapped the harnesses, I needed to replace the clip on the distributor. I followed the TEWD on the order of the pins in the new harness...I looked at the pictures and followed the colors....I did not read that...

    88 GE Injectors not firing

    I have not put a gauge on the rail to see pressure, but you can hear it rushing through, it presureizes the line pretty well cause fuel sprays out when the rail is opened. It fires almost every time when the key is turned on and the rpm's move up to about 2000 then drop down immediately. If i...

    88 GE Injectors not firing

    Engine was running in previous car...no issues present. I did not remove the dizzy, just placed it in my car. I put engine at TDC and confirmed that cyl 1 was at its highest point, took off the cap and confirmed it pointing to number 1. Checked the crank pully markings so that they were at zero.

    yes...fuel is present in the rail, the pump creates pressure in the rail and it runs when I jump the Fp and B+ terminals....

    engine had an 89 harness on it when I got the engine and I got the ECU as well. Both were marked and I looked up the numbers and they came back CA...the harness and the engine had the extra connector for the EGR temp sensor. The Dizzy connector was different on my 88 harness so I swapped the...

    88 GE Injectors not firing

    Timing is dead on and no codes....I don't think its a fuel issue...it fires right up each time i try to start, but it won't stay started, it dies right away. Cold start injector is supplying enough for it to fire. I have checked for fuel in the rail and for the fuel pump running.

    7mgte died and won't start....then it does start???

    as far as I know, when you release the throttle, the dashpot allows the throttle to slowly idle the car down without shutting it down instantly. It is a little baffle that slowly allows the throttle to even out. Mine would allow the throttle to completely bottom out instantly when I let off...

    7mgte died and won't start....then it does start???

    The dying was caused because the dashpot was out of adjustment.....which caused fuel to remain and flood the engine. The code 21 was unspent fuel to set off the O2 sensor....Ran it just now and ran fine, and no codes....only a short drive, but worked....longer drive tomorrow.....

    7mgte died and won't start....then it does start???

    so replace the CPS? You think the wiring is bad in it and it makes contact some times and not others?

    Automatic Transmission no reverse

    Automatic Transmission no reverse

    Driving is not the issue....going in reverse was the issue.....as I said, it drives in forward gears but not in reverse. If I pull the kick down cable all the way up and tie it off, it will go in reverse and still go forward.
