I'm getting oil pressure and the motor is cranking smoothly.

I have the 12V mod and fuel pump rewire.

Anyhow I checked the relay for the re-wire. With the car in the on position I have 1 hot wire and the other two power wires are dead (the last one is a ground, so that makes the four connections on the relay.)

Thanks,

Matt-

The only reason i have fuel pressure is I connected power directly to the fuel pump, so its still not working by key 'on.'

I have zero spark aswell.

In my other thread about identify these plugs in the third picture someone mentiond it was an alternator plug, but its the EA2 plugs. I'm not sure where it goes and what needs to be wired for it to go on, so any help would be great.

The body plug that I wired that went from 17 to 12 pin is the IH1 plug. I just connected color to color IS ThAT right?

Also how do i know if i have an early or late B3 connection the one that swaps to IH1?

I need the car running by thursday for SILV. HELP.

Thanks

use a switched 12v from the round plug near your fuse box and wire that switched 12v into each black with yellow/orange wire on your coils.

if memory serves, the EA2 is a very important plug...for the fuse box under the hood. are you saying that isnt plugged in? i wouldnt even think the engine would crank without that.

I wired up the EA2 connection and the motor started right up.

Thanks everyone,


One last request, I didn't have the PPS connection on my harness. I want to hardwire it in where do I hardwire the two connections from the PPS?
