FINISHING BHG job..lost my place

[Walka]

i have done a lot during this blown headgasket business and i am clipping in the harness on the intake side and forgot where this one goes..i cant find it anywhere




this is what it looks like




anyone know?

Originally there are two VSV's down there one for EGR one for the Fuel Pressure Regulator. I don't have a running mk3 so I can't go check, but a quick look through my photos I couldn't see that specific connector. My guess is that it's one or the other, EGR or FPR VSV. But I don't know for certain.



The other question, is what year mk3 do you have?

The TSRM seems to show the VSV's, that looks like it could be the right type of connector...

i have an 89 turbo supra

i have both vsv's..i do have that drawing i made to help a lil..i guess its hard to understand


but it shows what is connected and the one that has a question mark there..is the one i cant figure out

[Jeeves]

No clue offhand, sorry.

[Ne0z31]

my friends Turbo MKIII had that and it wasnt connected to anything... same goes for my N/A...

[Walka]

i tried to start it today and the starter tried to turn it and it struggled for a second...then a lil pop from the exhaust but nothing...its not starting



anyone know?

another important question is, how important that lil ground wire on the coil pack is? mine broke off and was gonna replace it


the screw is rounded out..is there more places i can put it?

General rule, ALL grounds are important. I'd definatly call that a possibility. I'd also be looking at the Cam Position Sensor. It's also well known for preventing starts.

Does it crank and crank and crank and just never catch?

[Walka]

yea no catch...ill ahve to look at that position sensor..i still need to time it and all...technically i just ahve it pushed in there

[Jeeves]

Have you checked for spark and fuel?

[Walka]

testing my timing light on my buddys car i found the light is out..so yea that was use less

but i got it to start and then it just dies..i thought maybe the timing was 180degrees off but nope i checked it the #1 is at its peak when the cams are.

im thinking i didnt gap my ngk platinums sooo i am gonna take them out and check the gap...im pretty sure it has to be .32 so im hoping that is just the problem.

but i got it to start and die...any ideas?...sometimes i hear when the car dies after its off it has a bit of a suction where the intake is, and the airfilter does a slight blow off. there is smoke so i doubt its not getting spark.

the whole time i had my buddys car connected to keep the battery from dieing.

[Jeeves]

Check for spark and fuel.

Full a plug wire, slap a spare plug into it, ground the plug out and see if it's firing. That right there will tell you if that ground wire is necessary. If it's firing there, I'd check fuel. But that's afterward.

i was an idiot and installed the cps wrong...actually i just put it on the head..didnt even think that it need to be set at a certain place...lined it with teh drill hole and put it on while at tdc...thx for the help car works now
