I talked to John a couple of weeks ago. They're making some progress, but other parts of life are taking up a lot of their time.
They've got a brake booster for the car, and I think they got the driveshaft (can't remember now), but the wiring harness is still being an issue. Their plan is to get it into shop for someone to go through the harness. We think that some of the wires in the harness got fried...Originally posted by LJ851kingston is the play by play announcer for this thread.

So did they determine whether they're getting spark or not? They have fuel pressure but suspect it isn't retaining enough pressure?
Who did their wiring? I read through the whole thing a while ago so I'm kind of lazy now. (Studying for NBRC RRT Exam for tomorrow).

Jahnaboi,
I don't know, to be honest with you, whether they are getting spark or not. John did the wiring harness himself, but I think there was a snafu there. I remember him telling me that his clutch line was sizzling...not a good sign!! I think probably some wires got fried, and will have to be replaced. This is the exact reason i went with a harness adapter from erikT (which worked PERFECTLY, by the way) - I don't trust myself with wiring!!Originally posted by LJ851kingston is the play by play announcer for this thread.

Well honestly I went back a couple pages and you mentioned that the wiring harness was an e34 bit. Its not. Based on the pictures of her changing the oil pan with the motor hanging incorrectly on chains, the harness is an e36 harness.
If they want more help we (forum members) need more information and possibly pictures of the said wiring harness job "John" did. There is a possibly that he did fry something but honestly the wiring colors and gauges between a late model e30 and e36 are not far off. Its hard to imagine how someone goes wrong with the wiring harness.
I'd be more than happy to double check her wiring or perhaps even make a x20 to c101 diagram for her/him to double check on (of course when I have time after my test tomorrow).

Dude, if you are local, they would appreciate that very much, I'm sure! I'll tell John to get on R3V and PM you about this!
I haven't looked at the wiring harness; John told me he'd figured out that it was an E34 one. I'm half a country away.
I know John & Jay were asked for some info that they didn't give; they are pretty frustrated and between that, and being busy with other stuff, they just haven't been on here much. Or really worked on the car very much.
By the way "John" is Jaylissa BF. Not sure what the quotation marks were about...Originally posted by LJ851kingston is the play by play announcer for this thread.

No pun was intended based on the quotes on John's name. Because the wiring information is coming through a third party (you), I just questioned the fact whether it was John that did the wiring or someone that helped/did it for him. When I read through the thread I knew John was her bf.
I don't know if you noticed but I'm in California. Lol. So if they were local and I had the time I would have tried to shed some light on the issue if at all possible. Hopefully one of them could chime in on the details of their short-comings as opposed to you being their messenger. Lol.

Well, Jaylissa's status says she lives in the East Bay, which I thought was California. Maybe not!Originally posted by LJ851kingston is the play by play announcer for this thread.
