Hello,
Its been like wrestling an Octupus, nailing down arm after arm.
So now I have everything together, Everything electrical is off-the-shelf (not necessarily new because its been sitting for a while, but straight off the shelf) from ECU to engine harness (modified from an '89), to distributor, PIP, TFI, COIL, battery and ignition switch. Oh, and a 3G alternator.
Its been almost two years since it ran, and now its up and going on about 1-2 cylinders.
I've checked voltages, and checked the spark. I think the only thing I've seen that is at all suspicious is that it has an orange spark about 90% of the time.
The first cylinder is really the only one that fires when it starts, and then when the revs get to the point the alternator kicks in another cylinder (I'm assuming its #4 because it starts to feel balanced) kicks in and starts revving more freely but still missing.
Each cylinder is getting gas, I smell it when the spark plug is out. Each fuel injector lights up with a NOID, and the fuel pressure is almost 40 lb.. Each cylinder gets spark, but they all get the mostly orange spark. Spark plugs are gapped to around ~.32-.33.
I tested the resistance and voltage at the coil (at standstill). All of those look fine as well.
Brand new rotor and cap on the distributor as well and wires.
