I drove it to work today, and then drove home in the rain. She needs a wash anyway.

Re: What did you do to your SY/TY today?

Checked the wiring after the retard that worked on it put it back together.

So far I have hazards, turn signals (all 4 on each side!), high beams and power to the fogs though the lamps are u/s.

Rear RHS lightbulb blew so I need new ones for that as well as the park lights :(

Brake sensor not getting depressed due to Hydroboost being too short - how to get around this?

ECM is blank due to PROMinator having no BIN file and my data cable is too short :(

The immobiliser is preventing me fron cranking the engine. Going to try and test for the fuel pump tomorrow. Ordered some parts for the turbo/intercooler problem :(

Found a shitload of goop in the rear RHS brake/turn lamp...anyone seen this before? It was like putty and sticky - almost thought it was pay dough?

Tomorrow I rip out the immobiliser and try and turn the engine over.

Also, my HI/LO beam switch in the steering column appears to be U/S :(

Re: What did you do to your SY/TY today?

Ran the + lead to the cutoff sw at the rear with nice clips and all. Welded a 2nd o2 bung in so I can run both o2's. Mounted the ground cable to the frame. (Wonder what would happen if I tried to start it with the starter having to find ground through all the other circuits? Yikes.) Few more details like bringing the bat cables to the cutoff then I can crank the motor with plugs out which will finish priming/purging the oil system. Installed oil filter for the turbo. Bunch of other detail stuff.

Seems like the more I get done the more there is to do.

Depending on when the chip gets here I hope to start it this week. Video is planned.

Re: What did you do to your SY/TY today?

Never found that on any of the other connectors on the truck so why that one? Would black RTV do ok as a replacement? I pulled most of it out...

Today I did some more stuff:

wired up fuel pump and tested it with the jumpre on the relay (orange to grey) for a second or two.
wired up the licence plate lights
new front fogs

rear park/brake lights
reconnected the ABS and all the pipes. I must have caught a bug from Mike as I started to enjoy polishing them. :D

Re: What did you do to your SY/TY today?

Bunch of details again but the main thing is I cranked the motor without ANY plugs to make sure I had oil pressure and to prime the lifters. Startup is getting so close I can taste the fumes.:rotf:
