Re: 4age 16v Injector wiring problemo

The wiring diagram I have shows blue and red leading to the resistor box and yellow and green going all the way to the ECU. So I would expect that they would stay the same in the harness. The injectors are wired as pairs in parallel, so there will only be one blue and one red arriving at the resisto...

Re: Engine stall. Cuts off. Vacuum switch. Help please

... my engine cuts off because one of the wire to this vacuum switch... ripped off. If your engine cuts out because that valve is not working, your idle speed must be a bit lower than stock (850-900 rpm). As said, try raising the idle speed by turning the screw down the tube on the side of the thro...

Re: Anti-lock Braking System (ABS)

Threashold braking does as well and in most instances stops faster than ABS. Yes... in theory. When you are just braking hard into a corner, or scrubbing off speed in less than panic mode, threshold braking or cadence braking will do the job. But when you find yourself on the wrong side of the road...

Hey FOB... pretty sure that the bigport and smallport run the same fuel pressure.

Drive gear inside the gearbox is made of steel, so it will chew up the nylon driven gear if they are not meshing properly.
