is there a special way to remove this? i noticed it is bolted down on one side and goes under the intercooler, is this gonna be a bitch to remove?

 

if i remeber correctly you have to take the rats nest off to remove the whole harness. its been a while. i run with out emissions though. hope it helps. i don't even want to know about the whole clutch thing.

 

you could just cut the harness and go to radioshack and get a large clip conector (12 wire or more i think) and then the next time you can just unplug it, thats what i did

 

Don't cut, it takes like 20 minutes to remove all the connectors and move the **** from the ECU.

 

Easy as hell, but a bitch to remove...

Unplug all connectors, remove intake, (because it goes under) and losen it up until you reach the firewall. Now the fun starts. You have 3 remaining plugs under the dash, right before the firewall, 2 are easy, but 1 is a real bltch. So remover carpet, protective oan, unplug these connectors and unbolt ECU to make it easier. But be really gentle, do not forget that your harness is atleast 20 years old, you dont want any cracked wires.

 

the harness is out of the car, i unplugged the ecu and brought it through the firewall, im just trying to figure out an easy way to get it off the motor without taking it apart, intake and stuff

 

you see why the FD guys make fun of the FC guys?
you see why?

 

LOL^

I recently removed my engine harness from my engine. Wasn't that hard. Be sure to undo every connector and remove parts that are in the way. Do NOT start ripping wires out... lol - It can be somewhat frusterating.

 

lol.. FD guys can make fun all they want, but a lot of them are just as guilty. at the end of the day i came up with one of many solutions to this problem, go figure it was an FD guys thread i read that gave me the idea. If it works effectively that's all that matters. The next time i go to pull my engine all i have is 2 a master plugs to pull at the firewall. I don't see whats wrong with not beating around the bush? just unplug it and be done with it.
