    Pushing Car Off Cliff #2

    ok well after swapping in a puny sohc motor last weekend, the car would run great but if i tried reving past 4k it would bog then be ok and bog again.

    it started getting worst. then i couldnt rev past 3k and teh car would misfire. the tach was all over the place. i figured it might be the ignitor or coil going bad so i swaped them with the dizzy from my dohc motor in to the dizzy from the sohc. same issue. tach was still all over theplace. i would cruising at 2500rpms and the needle would be bouncing everywhere then the car would start to stutter.

    well on friday it started doing it again so i gavve it gas and then the car reved all the way to about 5k and then died.

    now i dont even get a ecu light and i dont hear the fuel pump. my afc wont turnn on either. the car will turn over.

    other electrical components do work like the windows and radio.

    i changed out the main relay and same ish. no blown fuses. i tried a different ecu same ish.

    now im thinking i may have had some type of currentt overload that was making my tach go nuts and mess with my dizzy. and when i managed to rev it to 5k it blew something. but what?

    help me

    check the ground on the thermostat...it goes from the wiring harness to one of the 10mm bolts on the ecu ground....try it and get back to us.
    Finally Up and Running. Numbers to Follow. Check my MR

      Did you ever change out the whole distributor? I had some of the same issues... bogging, and tach messing up and flipping out. Changed the coil and it made it just a tiny bit better. Then replaced the whole distributor, and it fixed it all. Watch for one on ebay instead of paying 200 at autozone.
