Pogress at last
Hey guys,
Since ya'll have been so patient answering my stupid questions, I thought I'd give you an update on my '87 TII.
First, I spent several evenings going through past threads and archives and takin' notes. Tons of info.
I decided to do the TB mod, if for no other reason than I'd never have to struggle with that &^&%$%^%^&!! 90 degree coolant hose ever again. Pulled the upper intake, and upon examination of the TB, I noticed the secondaries only opened about a half an inch at WOT. AHAH!!
Didn't spend a lot of time trying to figure out why, they're commin' off anyway.
Next, I jumpered each injector plug and did a contunuity check at the ECU plug, just to make sure I had wired them correctly and that my wire splices were good. All OK.
Then, I rechecked the new injectors I installed, to make sure I hadn't torn an O-ring. A-OK.
Checked the vaccuum spider hoses and zip tied them.
Pressurized the fuel lines as per HAILERS instructons. Dry, no fuel smell.
OK, a few more stupid questions;
Is there anything else I should do/check before I put the upper intake back on?
What is the vaccuum line from the front rotor housing between the middle two oil injectors for, and can I do away with it?
Professor RETed, is your last name Wankel?
Thanx everyone, for all your help!
