Very odd problem...
When i turn on and off the headlights in the run position everyonce in awhile the fuel pump reprimes ????
Also weither or not the high beams are on the highbeam icon is light up..
Im going to go back and disconnect the gauges... maybe it doesent like a wire i used.

Wire dividers:
Wire terminals and tool:
Wires lined up:
Heres how you do it!:
Roll the wire and cut the outer layer:
Strip about 1/2''
Take these guys:
Fold spark wire back and over and slide on terminal end crimp lightly:
9mm tool: Vice grip the one half tap the other with a hammer to crimp only $5
Crimped!:
Add dielectric grease to slide boot back over!:
Done:
They keep the wires off the headers! niceee... Looks half decent for first set of custom cut wires...[/QUOTE]
Adam,you got a link for the crimp tool,boots and dividers?
i'm gonna copy your style
i think the local Kragen carries the boots,but they may be cheaper online.
thanks Adam

Installing Moates QH today... Didnt do alot of reading just kinda jumping in to it. I have a tune i made set up. Going to see if i can write it to the QH and give it a test start.
Holy crap Adam, I just realized I posted on the first page of your thread, and it was over two years ago. I cant believe you have been working on it that long! I hope it starts up for you soon bud, get her on the road and enjoy the hard work!
Dont remind me! its started up a few times... just need to get it to the point where i can drive it... need to finish brakes and tune.
Some recent pics:
Also been working on this:
Chris picked it up for $1300 and we are slowly restoring it.
I like what you've done with Sportlines. I am looking for a efficient suspension. I think this is the one I am looking for.

Well. There has been a few problems. I ordered the stainless lines from autopartsdealer.com and waited 2 weeks and no parts so i checked on their site and the order said pending... i emailed and a few days later i got a response and a refund. So no one order from there anymore. They didnt even say there was a problem with the order and it took me calling them.
SO i just ordered from jegs. few $$$ more but they just arrived promptly with a free hat.
Lines look high quality
Other then that ive been busy with an internship... I cant really talk about where. But i love it! but ive been working 40+ hours a week. My car is 2 hours away so its hard to get to...
last time i was having a problem with the car starting and dieing right away. before it would atleast hold an idle for a bit. the only thing that had changed was the plug wires. so i need to check them to make sure i have spark on all of them.
The tune i used and modified was the dirtydirtyracing cobra tune. since im running a 24lb pro M maf i switched it over to a 19lb calibration. I also turned off EGR and smog and turned the fan temps down a bit.
Any ideas how to go across the bay??? Im gonna go through the cowl with the lines. Do i drill here???
Or is there a way to get strait in the fender???

what are you trying to run across the bay? fuel lines or just wires? if its wires i would say you could most likely drill into the cowl and hide them in there. glad to see a little bit of work getting done!!

Brake lines. Im going from the MC to the Line Lock. Then to the prop valve. the line for the rear is on the pass side along with the caliper for the pass side. SO i need a clean way to get the new hard lines across the bay. Im looking at going in to the cowl... I can get them in clean but getting out and down and remaining hidden is the problem
Im gonna put a few hours in this weekend.
what show is it this time you want to get to?
perhaps the AM show on Sept 11th? Gives you like a month...
Na no shows...
Internship is over... cant find a job... dont wanna get in to a slump and sit around.
