After farting around trying to figure out why I wasn't getting spark, Andrew found a wire under the fuse panel that wasn't plugged in...plugged it...turned the key...


IT'S ALIVE!!!!

I'M ****IN GOIN TO SITM!!!!!

 

Congrats! Now drive it like you stole it!

Sharkskin, WTG means "What the Guck", right?

 

Here's the videos. First one is before we figured out that there was a wire under the fuse panel covered that was unplugged.

Second one is from 2 hours later, after I'd started thinking something was terribly wrong. I sound like a moron, but it's been NINE MONTHS since I last heard my car run.

No drive around the block tonight. We didn't hook up the radiator hoses or any of the belts. That's next....after I get a new radiator drain plug (cracked it when I tightened it tonight )

What is the function of the wire that caused the problem?

 

I'm not sure yet, but it branches off from the O2 sensor wire.

 

Awesome Dave...When are you ready to start on my car!! ;-P
