Madness!

holy shiat! I'm about to get mine up and going as well...just need a couple more dry days

Does the hood close yet? Last pic I saw the hood wouldn't close.

**monoxidechild** · 11-11-12, 10:51

It looks like all the support bracing has been cut off the underside of the hood. Probably did that for clearance.

And hell yea! its nice to see a pic of a 1st gen project on here instead of all 2nd gens like its been.

yea the hood closes. having trouble getting the driver side axle to stay in. i dont know if the clip isnt holding in there or if the angle has changed so slighty enough to where it doesnt want to stay... i can get it bolted up snug but once it rotates it pops out

it doesnt seem like there is much support up on the sho forums for wiring in the engines, only a few people know whats up. and the people that do, have the info for the 3.2 and not the 3.0 like i have. the good news is after this weekend i have spark but cant get the injectors to fire, it still dont have a maf or clt sensor. though i have read that the stock ecu doesnt need that to start and idle

Do you want a "bible" and spare engine harness with EECV? It's for the 3.2, but the nominal differences are pulley's and bore. Electronics are the same between the two.

**zlyricist** · 11-12-12, 14:40

i could take a look at the bible if it is online?

ive got to be just missing a signal or two

im using the stock mx6 body harness which has all the relays i need really. so im not using ford's CCRM to run the relays. well i think that is where i am failing. i think the AC stuff, or clutch position or, maybe fuel pump needs to trigger something in the ecu to fire the injectors. will hopefully figure it out soon!

When I was planning to run my SHO, I was planning on using the SHO harness, EECV and Relay Box. It has all of the controls

I'm surprised you aren't trying to run this with MS

I think they actually sell an EECV replacement with MS

**zlyricist** · 11-12-12, 19:26

i will tackle the ms thing or use tweecer once i get her to pass emissions. then once she runs on that, ill pluck the engine for some blower action

i finally found some legit wiring diagrams!! i should have it running by the end of this week

**Zach** · 11-12-12, 19:40

awesome! unfortunately what I have is in paper form and is a HUGE book

**jphillips626** · 11-20-12, 21:53

Sickness! LOVE for the YAMAHA engine!

**zlyricist** · 11-24-12, 0:22

she lives!!! runs like crap and leaks oil from rear main seal....f f f fail! its a pretty bad leak, though id like to pass emissions before i go through the effort of pulling the engine again. we will see. i had no clutch and the car went into all gears while it was running?

so anyways, long story short. i found out i had a bad ecu. now i need to find out if it has bad sensors/dis/needs tune up. will update when i have somethin good to report

what engine is that..

MX-6 GT 88 · 11-26-12, 13:46
