oK So I need some assistance from the gearheads Please !!!
This theres this turquoise 90 L Plus (Danielle)
for sale & im trying to frankenstein it back to
Function with parts from my blue 91 L (Amy)
Danielle stopped running in late July & has been sitting since occasionally turning over (but not idling) & receiving a good deal of effort by a retired mechanic type w no experience in these cars " trying to undo what the previous yahoos did to the car "
The computer in the danielle was fried , so we put the ecm from amy in her , which helped some (acheiving an extended idle but not longer than ~10sec)
The real weirdness seems to be in the mass air flow unit . The wiring connector was all taken apart & put back together ... we got it back arranged like the schematic & have voltage at the B+ lead but no 2V at the white sig wire ...?
The butterfly valve at the intake (?) seems to be not wanting to let enough air into the mix , as when it runs (for 3-7s bursts) the exhaust is rich w unburnt fuel & after so many turns it acted like it was flooded .
Her block has great compression , but there is some missing link(s) in the wiring keeping her from really running . Any thoughts ???
Maybe the mass air shorted out & isnt regulating the air flow ? Maybe the distrubutor is so out of whack that its not sparking on time leaving all the unburnt fuel ? We think her plugs themselves are oK .. but the fuel body on the intake was replaced too , so maybe thats having issue regulating the fuel right too ?
Dani has good brakes & ill prolly need to hotwire the headlights for now to have light enough to drive home once shes moving again ... but thats the first problem to solve .
Is the problem in the wiring or am i missing something ??
So appreciate your input
