5.0 transplant problems
i would like to make this my introduction post to say hello. i am from utah and love it here. the weather isnt so great most of the time but its manageable. i am 22 and have been a wrench from 14. did some 4x4 work and love it but its time to go faster. my brother has a 68 notchback. its nice. i am getting into engine swaps, and have done real good up until now.
first off the car is a 1986 1/2 LX, speed density, still
It has an engine from a 1992 cougar XR7,
and the fuel injection set-up is off a 1990 Mustang.
i have checked all the harness, there is one plug by the TPS sensor that I don't have connected. I think that is for the air meter on the MAF, but I'm not positive.
i ran a diagnostic with an analog voltameter and got a few codes, one was: spout circuit open, and the other: spout circuit grounded?
i have checked spark and its to the plug.
it does not have a schreader valve to check fuel pressure, but i think its getting fuel, i can smell it.
i tried to prime the oil system with out the coil wire and noticed, it arced onto the positive lead on the battery...
i really dont know where else to check,
thanks for your time, chris
