I think the only update I have is I had to get in tank and fix a possible siphon issue. Needed to get an evo siphon t thing. Put that in, and then I had two wires swapped on the IAC, which was causing it to get hot to the touch. (still metered fine, so it should be good)
Not really I guess. I'm getting frustrated by my tuner. I've been waiting since OCT to get a map. smh.
Just busy with school, don't work anymore idk lol
Wait what? Since oct and he can't get you a pump base map to fire up?! Da hell?
E85. It hasnt been a big deal to me, since I was busy out processing the military and going to school. Now I'm just going to school, so I really don't have time anyways lol but there is a car show in march that I would like to go in. I suppose I could run it on 93 in town here, but I'd rather not, since I'm boosting to 23ish while breaking in the motor. I honestly can't remember if I can run pump gas with 10.5:1 compression ratio. I would rather have the engine never see nothing but e85 if I can. but eh idk lol
im sure youve done tons of research but by me youve gotta watch out for e75 in the winter mixes. my buddy was running "e85" in his evo and ended up blowing it up. he took a fuel sample and sent it out and they told him there wasnt enough ethanol or whatever in it. just sayin watch out! dont wanna see this beast spit a rod too.
Oh yeah i know. Its stupid.

happy birthday man!
Haha thanks man.
OK so I cranked her over just like 30 mins ago... Need some help.
I have about 20 psi at the FPR. Pulled the plugs, looks like no spark, and I couldnt even smell fuel in the cylinders. So its safe to say no fuel no spark. NOW for you DOHC dudes, i know that the CAS sends a sig to fire the injecs and sparks, but does the CAM sensor feed in also? so how do I good about testing this out. Let me tell you that I have a CDI ignition, so i'm not going to fricken hold the plugs anywhere really, I just need to know how to figure out why its not lighting off. Need ideas. Thanks. I guess the only way to test all those is to do it while the car is turing over, which is what i'm trying to avoid.

best invention ever.
Oh snap! That handy as eff
so I found the problem. the 12v supply to the crank sensor wire was broke, between the connector and the sensor itself, right at the connector side. It had continuity when metered, but when twisted and connected nothing, haha I metered everything else but that thing. eh oh well.
Nice you were able to track it down
Damn glad you found it

ME TOO! I was hoping it was something stupid easy and it was, but i still ended up taking the timing cover to check the CAS. Hopefully she will start now, I think i'm going to try it tonight, or tomorrow, idk don't have a drive to do it yet, stupid homework haha
got fuel, no spark.. smh
Aww wtf?! Try different coil packs?
Sent from my HTC6500LVW using Tapatalk
I don't have coil packs, I have a cdi ignition box hooked up to the spooling up cop. It was already wired for the aem twin fire box, all i had to do was plug in the coil pack connectors and then give the cdi box power and ground, and i'm beginning to wonder if my ground is good enough haha. I would work on it today as much as I love metering and troubleshooting, but its to cold out. I might slave in the galants oem coil packs, and see it that fires up if it does, then I have a power issue or something. although I did meter for power and the cdi box and there is 12 volts there, ah shi....... i think i know whats wrong.... EFF MY LIFE lol eff eff eff eff... ill check it tuesday
oh and i got evoscan working and i was recording when i cranked it up, you think there is any useful info on it?
Eh only like voltage on crank and if the cas is turning on/off like it should be.

Some update I guess. Spring break all next week, so I'm going to be fixing the G. Shot some wires today, I got 12 VDC at the oem coil plugs and the signal wire is good from the ecu to the coil plugs, EXCEPT FOR #2 wire, white with green stripe. I know that the engine harness side is good because I had continuity, but heres the shitty part. from the firewall to the ecu for #2 i have no continuity, and I know for sure that I metered everything good before I installed it. So I was thinking it was the solder joint to the evo ecu plugs. Nothing wrong with that, so it is safe to assume that the wire got cut/ broke somewhere underneath the dash smh. gotta pull out the harness tommorrow "sigh"
Gawd damn that's the lame part of harnesses. I remember working on/troubleshooting a 4g69 swap. This happened a lot. Harness in and out and redone several times

Wow. Chasing that harness issue huh? More power to ya Jared, I don't think I could handle that noise and keep my sanity.
Yeah its out. Found the issue, but im going to make like 200% sure everything is fricken Golden before i put it back in. With that being sad, what is all 5V sensor wise, im assuming crank cam water temp tps is? Anything else?

I think you got them all Jared. Ugh I'm not envious.

It sucked! I tried to not remove the brace to keep my steering column connected... Yeah that didnt work. As soon as the column fell, i went ape shit on the hvac lol. Oh and i guess i decided to supply 12v to the crank and cam sensor....... Fml lol
Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk
Yeah that damn column has to come out. I hateeeee pulling the dash omg. Lol and yeahhh power and ground issues always happen on harnesses I swear.

Hooefully the sensors are good.
Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk
I'll swap out the CAM sensor tomorrow on the eclipse to make sure it works, and I'll meter the crank and cam voltage just to make sure and the water temp haha. I'm gonna fricken lose it soon. This nice weather is PERFECT for driving!
for some reason i enjoy pulling the galants dash out. maybe i have done it so many time that i know exactly what is needed. i can prob have the entire dash, column and crash bar out in an hour if i had all my tools and an extra hand to help me with the crash bar. the only shitty part was maneuvering the heater box with the crash bar in the way but i think i found a trick for that. just havent done it in a while to remember.Quote:

Bought a dash from the yard not too long a ago it takes me 10 minutes or less to pull it. I was very temped to get one this weekend, it was a pristine gray dash, cushions didnt feel dry and no cracks, car had just got there no dust inside even the the doors were gone.

I dont mind pulling the dash, but the heater core f that! I'm going to have extra bolts left over i know it lol

Lmao yeah those damn hoses haha! There is a trick to those things. Until you learn it ugh.

So I have no idea whats going on. I metered the eclipse I get 12VDC to both the crank and cam sensor, and then that means that they output 5VDC square wave to the ecu. I think I'm going to order both a cam sensor and a crank sensor and just change them. I'm getting fuel, I have power to everything correctly and it won't light off. I might slave in some oem coil packs and just try it, even if they are a little longer than evo ones lol. If I change both sensors, and crank it with OEM coil packs and it still doesn't light off, then its gotta be the ecu.
youre running an evo harness/ecu?
Evo ecu with pig tails, galant harness
Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk
Yeah my thinking after all of that its got to be a ground or the ecu
I checked all the grounds and they either ground in the bay, or go through the ecu and out a specific sensor ground in the ecu. So its all there. Maybe my timing is that off lol, i cant be that lucky. Race car build=race car problems

hope this helps somewhat. im sure youve got it all figured out as for wiring but hey it doesnt hurt to triple check with a diagram you may have not seen yet.
I'm assuming thats an evo schematic?
