i can crank this thing for half a minute back to back and it still dont matter

 

Also as retarded as this sounds, whats the condition of the battery?

 

sorry the line going to the lower fuel rail insulator that feeds the oil injectors.

 

batery is new but as sat for about six months... i have had it on charger ever since i have been trying to turn this thign over.

 

there is no check valve or anything on that line. ony thign on it is a hose clamp that ws not moved up in the right position and tightened at the moment of the picture.

 

K just making sure. Hey at least you got some sunlight to work in.

Looking forward to seeing the rest of it broken down. Good luck man!

 

another thing i found was a vaccum port that seemed to be uncapped. you can see it in this pic under my BOV connection. it has the blue cap on it. what is that port for and should it be uncapped?

 

I was refereeing to the the line next to the turbo and the one running by the maf they looked like check valves but could be adapters I wasn't sure.

 

the one running by the MAF directly under the other line that taps out right there is a cehck valve, that lines runs up to where the oil fill cap is.

the blue capped vac port in yoru pic is not a vac port... ther is no hold drippled in it. i just checked mine. its a solit piece that sticks up.

 

headin to the local hardware store... be back in a few. i will upload some pics before i take off though.

 

 

quick question... the ground that is on the bottom of the motor by the starter... where is it supposed to be hooked to. i have it hooked up, jsut curious if its in the right spot

 

right next to the coolant drain.

 

hooked to the metal bracket is bolted on next to the coolant drain... then the ground bolted to the bracket?

 

it should be a big *** metal plate that bolts next to the coolant drain. unless your talking about the +/- line that runs to the starter.

 

all omp vacume lines are good and attached to the nozzles. if i pull the injectors, is there any way to clean them without sending them off?

 

 

Kind of but even if they are failed it wont prevent the engine from starting.


Heres a pic of the ground

 

so whats the next step from here... looks as if all is installed correctly to me.

 

because we didnt have proof of ANYTHING except a bit from the runs. everything else was guess work and assumptions UNTIL we get some concrete info- like a look at the plugs.


seeing the plugs gives you more info then just about everything said so far.

 

I would clean and dielectric grease your engine grounds while everything is apart as well.

 

You do not have a check valve on the line leading to the injectors correct?

 

compare those plugs to these pics http://www.gnttype.org/techarea/engine/plugs.html

which one does it most look like?

 

Mine looked like those on a fresh engine as well.

Actually mine looked worse.

 

If your engine grounds are looking like that all over that could be causing your problem.

you also have some massive buildup of something in that L1 spark hole.
