Re: How NOT to flush engine oil!

wow... I would first hunt down that useless GM tech and beat the living shit out of him.

If nothing else, report this incident to the dealership, I would not want that asswipe in my service department. I cannot find words to describe his incompetence. And cowardice in handling his screw up.

Here is what you will need to do... buy lots of wire...

Seriously, though, it isn't impossible, but it won't be fun.

Get the 1990 FSM. Learn the harness, circuit by circuit. Find a salvage yard who will cut an engine harness at the firewall. Inside the car would be best. The harness connector at the firewall isn't... it's a hard point, nothing unplugs there.

1. Remove the dash board.

2. Clean up the wiring on the inside of the dash. The wiring on the outside is junk.

3. Clean up the firewall on the outside... airbox, surge tank... anything out there, get rid of it.

4. repair and paint the engine compartment.

5. Get a couple of multipin connectors... there are about 40 or 50 wires that need to be dealt with. These wires go all over the place... the ECM, the dash board, the CCM... you name it...

Just take your time, clean and prep the area where you must work... any left over junk will make this project that much harder.

You will also need a good soldering iron, strippers, crimpers and a DVM.
