    Well I think its time for this....I have gotten some requests to show some pics of my 3sge electronics to a 2s-e...so here they are(I will post better pics soon) and yes I know that its a mess and there is a truck bettery in. what looks to be a dizzy in the center of the head isn't its a plug the actual dizzy is the one n the side being driven by the end of the cam, its there because a mounting a ge dizzy in the orignal location wont work(it spins the opposite way) and the igniter is on the valve cover because it wont fit where it should go because where the egr crap is on a 2s.

    Huge progress today, Dark Storm finally cranked and fired on the normal injectors but then it stalled anyone know why it would stall right after?

    only time that's ever happened to me was because of AFM issues or intake hose leaks.

    yep Im pretty sure its afm now because last time i had to attach extra ground wires to get it running, so im going to try that again. I also just check my intake tube and there is no cracks.

    Dark Storm is now running :driving But there is a hesitation/sputtering from 2-3000rpm. Could this be because there is no t-vis?

    My understanding is that T-VIS activates at 4000-4200 RPM......... someone correct me if I'm wrong :cheers

    nope im saying that because the t-vis wires from the ecu dont go anywhere. Fixed the hesitation from 2-3000rpm. now onto the idle it goes from 700-1000 when its warm, do i just turn the adjusting screw to make go up to 1200?

    Why do you want it to go up to 1200?

    It has a really lumpy idle at 700, so much so that it stalls sometimes and its much better at 1200.

    It seems like dark storm, does not like starting/running in -30. I had to have my foot to the floor and be cranking for alot longer then usual, and once it does start its runs horribly. It seems that the colder it gets the worse it runs and finally there are no warning lights on at all(yay). anybody else have this problem when its cold outside?

    I drove the celica last night and there are some running problems mostly it has no power, Its impossible to get it moving without riding the clutch abit and once you are if you take your foot of the clutch it stalls, Im wondering because its seems to be always flooded and im running a 3sge ecu/ main electrical that it running too way too rich would cause it, is there a way to get it running more lean? I also need a new pcv valve but it wouldnt cause that sudden drop in power. But ecerything else is running great

    on your starting problem...have you tried to start it slowly.....let me explain



    jump in and turn the key to acc. wait 5 seconds then try to turn it over.


    if that doesnt work then try it 3 times waiting 5 seconds in between each time but dont try to start till the third time.



    this is how to stat a car that has ran outta gas....yes i know you have gas but try it as this is how i stat my beast on cold days...never really had a problem.

    Celicaman you will have to replace the fender first it look's like to me that knock on the left side as bend the bonnet hinges a bit
    or your cradle as moved from that left side knock the best to check is release the bonnet from the lock itself and then check if line's up better if so then cradle as moved as well you will have to push the cradle from right to left so that you lock line's up underneath what's happening now is when you push bonnet down to lock the lock is getting forced to the one side the best to this
    is remove grill so that you can see bonnet lock or even remove lock and then let bonnet come down you will what I am talking about hope this will help
