Padens TB shot a fireball at me. Singed the hair off my right arm, lol. We had the wrong firing order

 

[Cheesenip]

Yea, i got to thinking about it. I think the wiring how-to on neons.org was back wards so Im goin to Switch them and see what happens.

 

[Cheesenip]

Well...it starts...and it starts everytime i turn the key. Which is a good thing. I switched the cam sensor, crank sensor and went to a stock ECU. It wont idle on its own thou. only iff I hold the gas down some will it stay running. once i let off, it dies.

 

[Cheesenip]

Purrs like a kitten...just need to finish the small stuff now

It's alive!

 

[Cheesenip]

Yup...and of course it starts to rain just as I get off work.

 

[Cheesenip]

Well..This was of of yesterday..front bumper and wheels need to be put back on. I put the interior in it, did the brakes and managed to break a seat track.

Put the Yellow fogs back on

And turns out..since the 2.4 is 1" taller than a 2.0..i forgot the exhaust would be pulled up a little..and it sits right on my shift cables and burns the shit out of them. Ill heat wrap them later

And it LIVES--sounds like shit..it was windy
