The bastard runs!!! Finally!
The bastard runs!!! Finally!
I'm not sure how many of you have been following my posts, but browsing the forum they should be pretty easy to identify.
I fixed the knock sensor and check engine light problem tonight. I figured out that it was a short in the harness somewhere. The damn CEL could not be cleared, so i figured this was automatically tripping the ecu, even after I cleared the code. I ran new wire to the ecu pin--to the knock sensor, cleared the codes successfully this time, and fired the car up and voila, no knock sensor!!!
After troubleshooting the pulse generator on the tranny i figured out it wasnt wired right, and so after figuring that out, i finally got the car to shift into OD. The car is also staying at the proper temperature!!
Sorry for the enthusiasm, the car has just been kicking my *** as of the last few weeks and its been really frusterating
C ya guys!

Crap, it wasnt even my car!
I was doing the work for my friend
Basically this means I have to start tending to my own cars, that were being neglected because of this whole debacle!
