This morning I went out and pulled the relay for the fuel pump and left it open. I turned the key to the "on" position and the fuel pump did not turn on.
ECU has gone tad nuts.hummmmmm
This morning I cleared all of the codes and drove it around for 20 minutes. What a difference a new set of plugs made. No lights came on while driving.
When I got back I did have to let it set for a few minutes but I did the compression test twice . After pulling the fuel pump relay, unplugging the distributor and using a shovel to hold the pedal down to WOT.
The first group of numbers are:
Cylinder #1 160 ALL GOOD , A RUNNER !
#2 155
#3 170
#4 160
Test 2
Cylinder#4 160
#3 160
#2 155
#1 165
It did run and sound better while driving around. I was looking at data on the scanner (I can see this paying off already). The data said that the temperature was 184 degrees but when I pulled pack into the garage and shut the engine off I could hear bubbling coming from the reservoir .
is it half full of AF? that reservior?
For the couple of dollars the fuel pump relay costs I could go ahead and replace it anyway and see what happens? But if that concerns you that it runs all the time it sure concerns me.
Thank you
bubbling, new rad cap.?
and pray. you running 50% anti freeze ? im sure you are, but must ask.
hot IDLE , parked, will the ECu hold closed loop status?
hot , running , not fast, say 40mph , flat ground, steady foot, runs closed loop? (final goal this)?
I forget if its possible to see ECU p/n sticker with out removing it. (mirror) just the last digits, 70Exxx?? suffix?)
56B will be 70Exx for you or like that. 56 is 8Valve engines. and US AT or US MT....
