Another question... Which sounds vary dumb but for the life of me im stumped... How do you get the old throttle cable out and whats the best way to feed in the new hehehe.

To late Pirate done answeered this question hehehe, the umm. TV pressure question is still there though hehehe.

bloody throtole cable pics...

Ok, so im having a bit of trouble with the throtole cable... my pedal just wants to stay on the floor. I keep on thinking i need to cut. Anyways heres som pics :P

Not sure how much ineed to cut though and how to keep it from fraying .

[DarkKnight]

Was just wanting P mang to know that i got my fire wall squared away now :P just like he told me to :P

Yes in the dark and by myself hehehe. Still havent got a tight throttole though

[gadget73]

You got the throttle cable hooked up then? Once you get it through the top of the pedal, and secure the cable to the firewall, you should just be able to pull the inner part of the throttle cable to pull the gas pedal up to where it belongs.

Good to know.

Like I said though, the cable can be adjusted to tight. If you don't get it figured out, maybe I'll come across you in the chat later... we'll figure it out then. Its simple; no worries...

Last night i noticed something else. on the tube/barrle fussel or what ever its called.

It can come off. And you know how on one side theres a big huge hole for it to go over the ball? Well on the opiosite side theres a small hole.

So anyways as i was mowing grass today i got to thinking. Humm Maybey i can get my cable tru that hole to make it tight? Hummmm


So in a min when the drizzil goes away ima see if it will even fit hehe.

Yea im good with the fire wall and it's on the pedal. problem is i have waaaay to much slack on the inner cable. and i dont see a way to tighten it up

I have played withUmm them nut's and what not. but to no avial.


O and my idea was a bust.

However now my ball hole on the carb is just floping off with ease. O how lovley.

I did think though at one time abought tightning the fusiole or tube or what ever the heck it's called. From as far out as it can go to as snug as it can go. Like is seen in Scott mang's pic.

However evreytime i get to tightning it. it makes a weired sound like the wire is trying to frey or something. and it get's really really hard to turn it.. Which that cant be good either.. And so far it didnt take any slack out of the cable either.. when attempting that....

Let me go look at these directions one more time.... Make sure i didnt miss nothing.


D.K.

Thanks mang's agine for baring with me hehe.

[85crownHPP]

sorry I couldnt help you out with the CFI mang, looks like you'll be in a more stable place once you get everything worked out.
I'll be abandoning mine eventually too with a SEFI conversion...

[DarkKnight]

No worries mate hehe. Im hoping one day i will come across another 85 with a good cfi in it. :P


OOOO


I have throttole pressure! I repeat i have throttole pressure! And it fills fucking great under my foot to! WOO HOO.

So next up will be lets see.. Ahhh yes.

WIRE DELETE muhaha.

Sorry. but hyper due to this pressure. :P One things for sure you will be able to fill the power mmmm hummm...
Just shame i dont got some thumper heads.


mmmm... Anyways.

Scott mang was saying the best place for me to start deleting wires is a plug on the drivers side firewall. I been looking for it but i just cant spot it. Anyone happen to have a pic.?

And by chance anyone able to tell me which wires not to cut?

[gadget73]

Find the ECM plug. Its a big ass grey plug thats located between the brake booster and the driver's fender. it'll be sort of down in a hole but you can see it if you look down from the cruise servo. Not much space in there so its hard to miss. 10mm socket to un-do the bolt in the middle of it (it wont actually come out, it just holds the plug to the computer). Pull the big plug out of the ECM, and start tracing the wire bundles coming from it. Just remove the whole thing. It will come out in one big piece, shouldn't need to cut anything if you're careful about it. There will be one chunk of wires that runs over to the passenger side fender to the starter relay, a bundle that splits off about the middle of the firewall to the top of the motor, and another chunk along the driver's side fender. Should connect to 2 relays and tie to some other sensors and crap on the motor.

[DarkKnight]

Sweeet. I am reading this right aye? All of what you mentioned just comes out?

And. that reminds me of another question :P Can i delete my cruise? I never will use it and it dont work atm either. :P I think i read where it just runs off of vacume. but im not 100% sure.

I know ima try to save that relay. ( fuel pump/pressure relay.) And. Im going to just cut the 02 sensor so that way it will be a pluged bung.


Thanks mang

If you don't want the cruise, just unplug it, seal off the vacuum lines, and remove the servo. 2 or 3 bolts from inside the wheel well. I don't think you can hook the stock cruise cable up to the lokar throttle cable anyway.

The computer wiring harness is separate from the crap thats actually needed to make the car work, so you can remove it without much hassle. There will be a small 6 or 8 wire plug over near the cruise servo that you'll end up using one wire out of for your ignition power. I dont know which wire this is, but a couple minutes with a test light to find the hot wire will tell you. One of them is hot with the key on.

Think thats the wire. Thats from Natehawks tread hehe

[DarkKnight]

Ok, came into a small wall. Help me tear this wall down though hehe.


So i was fixing to put my wiring back together and i said well heck let me mount my coil back on. so i was doing that and then i noticed that for some reason i cant mount it in the spot. ( Im preety sure it's due to my big ass valve cover studs :P.

Sooo anyways. I was woundering. is there a way to mount it somewhere else like say the drivers side fender well? Or is it okay if not all of the bolts are on?

:P just give me some ideas mang's :P hehehe. But no half ass ideas. :P


Also does anyone know what i do with the wires that are curently in the coil? do i take them out some how? or do i splice the wires im running with them? ( Still would need to know how to do that. )


Thanks mangs. O. One more question on this wiring. both my dizzy and my Umm. Module have male connectors. Im taking it i need to cut them off and just use butt connectors aye?

Im not touching this until i know for sure.
