Thanks! That's exactly what I did, and I just got back from a 2 week trip to baja, ran a 150 watt inverter from the cig outlet to charge 2 phones, a laptop, and a Bluetooth speaker (at least something charging the whole time driving 10+ hours with only breaks for food and gas), and had no...

You are the man, this was my problem! Searching for the fusible link bypass right now! Cheers!

I have numbers and places to order for just about every other water/coolant line together as well (radiator/heater/oil cooler), that i have on order, and as soon as i get them and install, and make sure they're good, I will post and save the boys a good half dozen hours or so:zilla:

An old thread, but awesome info! Ordering up some hoses today! Thanks boys!

Alright everyone, UPDATE- good news and bad news: Bad news is I threw in the towel yesterday, and had it towed to a solid mechanic I've worked with in the past. My fall school semester of graduate school has started, leaving me with next to ZERO time to keep chugging on this project, and I have...

Just checked every fuse in the truck (in the fuse block below steering wheel, and in the relay block under the hood on the drivers side) with the multimeter, all good here @jonheld . I had a little more trouble testing the fusible links, but I will figure how to test them and confirm. Probably...

Yea, I have this doubt as well myself, and would hate to go through the trouble of replacing a distributor and it not be the problem. What would you do at this point? I've put in OEM cap, rotor, plugs, wires, high tension cord, I've put in a second igniter, ignition coil is within spec, pickups...

by the way @jonheld , i think i got you up over the 1,500 mark in "likes received". You've earned em buddy ;) haha

Alright @jonheld , I checked the resistance at the ECU harness and read 225.2 ohms from G to G(-), and 224.1 ohms from NE to G(-). Both reading less than an ohm more than at the pickup coil (i re-re-re-re-re-re-re measured today and got 224.7 and 224 Ohms, respectively) as you predicted. So ECU...

Thanks @jonheld ! I will remove, detach, disconnect, separate, etc and get readings to you within the next few hours!

@Pin_Head how can I ground the - side of the coil? @jonheld do you know of a way to do this for this particular coil since in an enclosed harnes, so I can check voltage to it?

@jonheld thank you for the clarification. That all makes sense. That is not at all what I was doing when I was testing continuity to the ECU, or when I was measuring resistance on the female distributer harness. My 6.95K Ohm reading above was measuring resistance at the female side of the...

Also is there any way to fix that @jonheld ? Maybe a way to clean and retest? Or do I need to wire in a new harness? Either way I will recheck today and let you know what I get

@jonheld i was unaware that both male and female sides of the distribubuter harness were supposed to be at that spec. The image in the FSM looks like it's just testing the male side (distributer half), so that's all I assumed the spec was for. So just to be clear, resistance at both sides of the...

@Pin_Head how do you recommend i measure when circuit is complete? Also, how do you recommend i ground the ignition coil to perform that test? Keep in mind your talking to a relative NOOB :lol:. Also, I have a second "known good" ignitor installed now, and it didn't do the trick. Still producing...
