Subject: Re: FSM confusion by CorvetteBob on 2019/1/12 17:18:33 I'm looking in my '89 FSM. "If engine starts but then immediately stalls open distributor, set timing connector. If engine then starts and runs OK, replace pickup coil." Because of my build, I don't have an OEM dizzy any more, so bear with me. That final sentence (I would guess) is a good clue. Disconnect the timing connector normally disconnected when you set your timing. If it runs ok, then there's the issue. When you disconnect that wire, your cars ECM goes into the "Limp home" mode and sets a code resulting in the "check engine " light, but will run and drive. So I'd say unhook the tan timing connector and give it a try. I hope this helps. I'm not sure how its related to the pickup coil, but this has been my "best guess." |
