OK (predictably), the 89-90 is the same...so the low ac,v is not due to a difference in the "teeth".

 

Can't see it that well, but I am pointing at the MAP line.. used plastic tubing and rubber fittings, cut to fit so there are no bends in the line... like a glove..

 

Changed air filter as well. It was dirty but no rodents or nests in the tube.
I must say the .3 volts from the CPS is in the back of my mind...

 

Sweet! Where's my coil? (kidding) ...You give her a real "go" yet?

 

I haven't had a chance to give it a good run yet, but I'll keep you posted.. I think I 86'd the coil... bad move?

I'll check the garage tho...

 

Yet! here, they are like death and taxes. (it actually rains mice in my shop at night, judging by what I find in a bucket now and then)


Yea...mine died shortly after reading .03. Get this. the new Echlin read .4 right after I installed it....but went up to .5+ after a couple weeks. I understand plain old induction pretty well..but that thing is a little more tricky. Somehow it's iron core and the windings make current when nearby iron leaves. Maybe some "latent" magnetism, (alignment of polarization), occurs during operation. Check it again?

 

I don't want to start thanking you guys until I give it a good run LOL! Superstitious!

 

Will do!

 

Yep..there is a whole "ho ra" and a party when the "OP" get's it done...still waiting...

 

polarization

 

Unless the CPS bypass was done on your 88, the CPS signal is running through the c101.... Therefore, a marginal signal from the CPS can become a real poor signal after passing through the C101.

 

I gave it a good run.. about an hour. It ran beautifully. I pulled in the driveway and it started screwing up again. Black smoke, hesitation, the whole bit.. Son of a GUN!! I can't believe how smooth it was running and how fast that all changed.

I'll test the MAP tomorrow.. Are you saying above, that I should do the bypass?

No. my.o2 is it's not the CPS...Unless Pete disagrees, wouldn't think that^.

 

So...at this point you have "intrmitant" pig rich, and black smoke. Did you happen to pull out that tube and listen to the injectors?

 

I don't think it's the root of your problem, but I would bypass the C101 with at least the CPS wires. Solder and shrink tube for sure.
