Woes & Potatoes
Not really woes…
After work this morning I spent about three hours playing around with the parts that I had. First I disassembled the 1998 intake manifold. By doing this I discovered that the extra emissions equipment & ports on the ’98 manifold really is going to complicate things. So my quest for either a 1995-1997 or a JDM intake manifold continues.
I then spent some time trying to sort out the wiring harness. I mentioned before that I got a good deal on the harness, and the reason for this was apparent when I received it the other day. Many of the wires were already spliced, and the wiring near the ECU connector was a rats nest. Trying it vein to untangle things, I soon switched to “cut” mode. I was able to salage a good amount of most of the wires. Some are too short and will have to have either additional wire spliced to them or they will be re-pinned. Either way it looks like I will be brushing up on my wiring skills (Which is a good excuse to buy a new set of wire strippers/crimpers).
When I was all done I went inside, and this is what was waiting for me:
