New Guy and 1990 GT build up
#42
So I cleaned the MAF with elec cleaner, swapped the ect sensor (another used one so I'll get new soon). Also near my ECT probe there are two harnesses that are identical, not exactly sure which goes on the ect sensor at the moment. Fired the car up and the BE2012 still reads 20 for ECT and the dash gauge was intot he 100's. Something is still amiss there.
New pcv, new IAC, swapped out the open element K&N for the factory box with new filter(read that could be an issue and already had the factory stuff) still won't idle and smell rich.
Tried to check the MAF voltage but it seemed my wires were a different color than others so I will have to nail that down.
I "think" this is going to come down to either the ECT causing issues of the MAF and injectors being off in the ECU.
I am using the F5DE-b5a 24# injectors and ProM 75mm mass air meter.

Really a bit stumped as I have most of the basics out of the way it seems besides getting the new ECT sensor, checking fuel pressure and just swap in new fuel filter for good measure. Should prob check fuel sock as well since I have a door to get access to the fuel pump/harness/tank area.

I know you have gone through a lot of this checklist (maybe more?), but I suppose it doesn't hurt to link it in hopes that you might have missed something, or it might help spark a new idea.

I hope you can resolve this issue soon!

ECT and ACT sensors are good and functioning so they aren't the issue. Have a new fuel filter to go in because I have no idea when this was ever done. Need to check tank and sock as well.
Next up is to check and clean the 10pin connectors.
Revs great and even drives really strong other than that sputter. I did notice #3 wire got a little burned on a header pipe so I have fastened it out of the way and it seems just the insulation was a little melted.
#45
Seriously.. Cleaned the 10 pin, even took out the recall/extension, modded the pins so they make contact.. still nothing
Checked the tank and fuel pump/sock all looks good. Couple things in bottom of tank ill get out soon but not causing this issue.
Last thing I can think of is a trashed MAF (hard to fully test if engine doesn't run.. I know I can check the basics again) and I'll pull the MAF harness and give it a go. Also the EGR which I am pretty sure has a block plate but still has the vac going to it. So I'll pull that and see what's up. Maybe even disconnect the harness to it and see as well.

Ok so I came across something while checking through some diagrams, and something I completely missed. Also some special person spray painted my entire engine bay black including every wire and vacuum hose before I got this car so It's hard to see things.
This vacuum junction is missing a few hoses and it's hard to see the colors but it's behind the passenger strut area near the ac vac.
Also my vapor canister and egr are bypassed so if anyone can tell me which to plug up or all that'd be great. I'll try to look it up though.

Ok, a bit of a break through..
Removed EGR and checked plate seal, all good. Also plugged all loose vacuum lines with caps as well as the bung on the manifold I was using for egr, which I didn't need anyhow.
Fired up and it ran exactly the same, like crap..
Right before I stopped I unplugged the MAF sensor harness and it fired up and roughly idled but somewhat smoothed out, but IT WAS IDLEING!! somewhere around 600-700 rpm.. Sprayed carb cleaner around all the gaskets and seals on intake/tb and nothing changed so that all seems good.
Looks like it is narrowed down to MAF sensor.

Awesome job narrowing that down!
Do you think the MAF wasn't correctly calibrated for the 24lb injectors? It's a possibility, but then again, so is a bad MAF (which I think wouldn't likely be it, but always a possibility).
Food for thought.

New meter in and same shizz... Will run disconnected but once you hook it back up it just surges and stalls.
All I can think of using the list is maybe a wiring issue at the MAF or btw MAF and ECU.
Rechecked timing while I could and it was 12 degrees.

Could be, I really need to verify my numbers for my injectors to calibrate everything.

Here's a website with tons of diagrams/info:

Might come in handy if you're looking to trace down the harness for a problem.
