Ok, like title says, did a fuse box relocation under the hood to tidy things up a bit. Ive read a recent thread on a guy who did it and dropped it into his fender well... I instead just moved it back to the fire wall were the battery used to be ( because its in the trunk)
I only had to lengthen a few wires which were the head light plug wires,
and Ihad to lengthen two grounds ( one that was grounded right in front of were the fuse box used to sit ( parallel to were your air filter would be)
The other was one that was grounded to the fire wall..
I dont know what those grounds were for, but they are small grounds,
didnt look like anything serious...
Well I also took off my tranny mount and lowered the harness under the tranny mount so it wouldnt be going over top of it.
I wrapped a few things in electric tape and was done...
Ok well started the car up fine, but it was idling like crap.
I figured it was because of these bc0101s i just got installed a week ago,
but no it was idling way worse then normal...
I started playing with the biss screw and got it to idle fine, drove it and went to the store.. As i went to park the car died, ( once again me thinking cams.)
But when i went to restart it it had NO electrical power what so ever.
( Like dead battery.)
I changed all the fuses- they look good
Checked for shorts or bad wires, none that i can visually see.
Tried to jump start car, nothing still zero power but for some reason my cig lighter still gets power because original owner relocated it and ran it off of a constant hot to battery. Battery still has full charge. In a nutshell theres no ign.
Im going to rip it all apart today, got to get this thing running before tommorow so I can go to work...
Were should I start, what is LIKELy that i screwd up so i can save time and go straight to the problem.
Thanks...
