Does it have the "Do It Yourself" manual transmission, or the superior "Fully Equipped by Porsche" Automatic Transmission?

I put an injector harness in a 1986 in a parking lot,
the whole job took about 5 hours.
No engine pulling required
it helps to remove the parcel tray over the CE panel

This is a great relief. Right now we are in the throws of trying to figure out why this car doesn't run
We are getting spark, fuel pump only runs if bypassed. The injector connections and the fuel pump are
are not shaking hands with each other.
The PO is convinced that it needs a new harness.
I have sent the LH and the MAF to Rich at Electroniks to test them to see if they may be the culprits.
Also the PO bought a replacement harness from Mark Anderson which came with the car. It appears to be Ok

Seems odd that all would fail, though, to prevent a start. Is the W block in the CEB firmly seated?

Have you thought about pulling out the CEB to do a refresh? Wondering if this could be a leaking fan box corroding enough connectors to hamper the flow to the injectors.

jumping the fuel pump only proved that the fuel pump works
The ignition works as you can pull a spark plug and jump it as well. But the injectors are not getting any current to fire. Somewhere along the line the injectors and the fuel pump are not talking to each other
What is a CEB?

I had thought about doing this once, asked about it here, and never really got a response positive or negative, so, be careful. But, if you wanted to do a rudimentary static test of your harness, you could:
Then you could go with a meter or a noid light to each injector plug and see if you've got 12V. If you do, the wiring isn't severed and it's probably the LH keeping the injectors from firing. If you don't, I'd highly suspect the wiring coming to-and-from the fuse panel.
- Unplug the injectors
- Remove the fuel pump fuse
- Jumper the fuel pump relay
- Jumper pins 13 and 25 on the LH plug

Rich Andrade checked the LH and it's GOOD!
The crank position sensor has been replaced
The MAF still needs to be looked at
I have a the complete set of manuals in the factory binders
Noid light does not light up
