Wiring problems part 3,,fixing by accident
well for those who don't remember don't care or whatever,,i had some major problems,,such as when key is in on position the tach jumps to just above 3k,,and my secondary injectors were buzzing,,all this without the engine running.
well while testing things here and there i noticed the lead coil would only fire once in about every 5 revolutions and was very weak so i get another coil.. put it in and WTF no buzzing secondaries and no 3k tach action.
why so???
here is my theory wrong or otherwise. i think the bad coil was sending a signal to the computer that the engine was running at 3k and the computer in turnd began pulsing the secondaries,,,becuase that is what they sounded like they were doing( running like mad)
so any way i am happy for that but not for the fact that i just ordered a $82 shop manual,,i am sure it will get some use anyway.
just putting this out there in case others run into this problem
