    Finished up connecting random coolant and vacuum lines. Started getting the wiring situated with soldering in the IAT sensor and doing a little modifying for the wideband, but ran into a problem. Turns on the o2 sensor plug and the oil pressure switch plug were cut off of the e30 harness I got. So I now have to cut open the harness to dig them out far enough to extend the wires. There goes my nice clean looking wiring harness. :(

    Anybody have a pic of where the oil pressure switch wire comes out of the harness, so I can search for any sign of what's left of that wire on mine? I found where the o2 sensor wires were cut.

      Got the o2 sensor wires pulled, extended and soldered up, cleaned up wires under the dash behind radio, mounted the megasquirt ECU under glovebox area along with wideband controller. Also wired up the IAT sensor.

      Next is adding engine oil, coolant, trans fluid, running the boost line for Megasquirt, siphoning out old gas and refilling with fresh gas and give it a test start.

      Hopefully tomorrow after going to brewers game or this week.

                    It sounds dumb, but I went years without having a single funnel in the garage. Just never remembered to buy one. Then when you need one and realize you forgot to buy them again.... #%&*!

                    Good luck with the first fire up!

                          O'reilly's currently has Valvoline Max Life 20w50 synthetic blend for $1.07 a quart! :o Originally over $6 a quart. The guy at the O'reilly I went to thanked me for taking every last bottle they had, lol.

                                        I bought everything the O'Reillys on hwy 100 & Greenfield had. Hopefully that wasn't the one you went to, lol. The O'Reillys by my house in bayview doesnt even sell 20w50 which I found weird.
