THE ENGINE IS ALIVE!!! v6-350TPI Last few questions!
YEAAA BABY!!!! i got the engine to run!!!!! i wired the fuel pump threw the fuel pump relay output, a there are a few things left that i have to figure out.
1. The Cooling fan does not turn on, ill be able to figure that out or ill just make it so it turns on by the key
2. Going from the 91 bulkhead out, the torq converter clutch(auto overdrive) where does that go to on the 87 harness.
3. On my v6, the fuel pump made the humming sound when u turned the key, then it shut off, the way i have the fuel pump wired now on the v8 87 harness the fuel pump stays on all the time, but when you turn the key its a louder humming then it dimms down to a lower key humming, is it supposed to ever stop?
4. On the 91 bulkhead going out, my Inflatable restrant(blk/wht wire) where would i hook that to on the 87 harness?(not needed but figured id get it hooked up the right way)
5. And the 87 harness had a wire called computer command control that went into the bulkhead but i can not seem to figure out which wire it would connect to for the 91 bulkhead or if it is even supposed to run threw the 91 bulkhead.
I believe thats it, i forgot the list at his house but rest of the stuff is not "manditory" to have the car run and can be done at a later time.
When that car fired up we both almost hit our heads on the 12' ceiling cuz we were so excited and it was wicked loud!. My only advice to people who does the v6 to v8 swap as of right now is make sure you have a lot of time, Diagrams of both engines wiring connectors c207, c221, Computer, And Bulkhead(c100) connectors. Another big thing would be to get an engine from the same year so the wiring is almost exactly the same!!!!! so you dont have to trace wires for a week straight and figure out what goes where and oh this connector isnt even on my 91! lol
If anyone has any answers to those following questions, i will not see the response until thursday or friday, so if you would be so kind to give me a call my phone # is 1-860-268-4007, if its long distance for you, we can hang up and i will call you right back.
Thanks everyone
