car still wont run
first a little backgrond...i had an 88 se. i had the engine , trany,exaust ... well you get the point, put into a 87 gxl. i drove it 12 miles, parked it & it hasnt run since...ive put in all new fule system,the 88 ecu,& still nothing. when i put fule down the throttle body it runs for 3 to 5 sec. second , on the right frot fender there looks to be a resistor or relay of some sort. the plug from the wiring harness is not there. what is it , & is that all that is keeping my car from running?

download the service manual and go through the troubleshooting process for starting:
http://www.teamfc3s.org/main/factory...ual/1986_1988/ Sounds like you're getting spark & air, so mabey check for old gas, clogged fuel filter, etc.. I'd still go through all the service manual troubleshooting steps. |

If the 87 was manufactured befor jan of 87 you need to swap the wire harness out of the 88.
Basicly you have high imp injectors on a low imp harness. So bypass the resistors, or put low imp injectors on, or swap the harness over. If it ran and the ^ is correct then you burned ither the resistor in the ECU up or the injectors. |
