Suprra Girl you are all that! info that you left me helped. My igniter was fine I had a short in a wire harness that connect to coil pacK. I am awaiting one now. The terrible thing about the whole situation was that 1 connecter was partialy out that was attache to the set of fuel injecters and I pushed that back in, recharged the battery and wiggled the shorted wire........back in business. Supraa Girl and another member sent me a online manual that led me to trouble shoot that. THANKS!!!! I now need to track down a good 7MGTE motor. Mines has rod knock forgot that the missess drove w/o oil 3 years ago. still runs but never like it did when I first bought it. IT RUNS>>>IT RUNS thanks ya'll

Now I have 2 good igniters for a 7mgte for sell and a non turbo coil igniter. I might just sit on em and wait for a parts draught...LOL

[Isphius]

Ill buy em. How much are you looking for? I think one or 2 of mine is bad. I have symptoms similar to yours. My car(88 turbo auto) will not start for shit. It just sputters a few times. But once it does start, It runs great. And then today the tach wasnt moving when i cranked it, Like it usually does.

ISPHIUS,

I have no problem selling 1, I will keep 1 as an extra. $50 you can pick it up I am in South River. Check the harness on your fuel injecters. what happened was, i changed the igniter and it did exactly what you just described. I walked my hand along the side of my engine on the driver side of the engine and checked each injecter connecter, the last one I got to "click" pushed it in recharged the battery. No problems every since. I am changing my coil pack because a short was in that harness too. I could just change the harness that was the last thing needed to do but I will change it out totaly and keep the orig as a spare. Try that and then let me know. What I found was that my igniter was good, the 2 i bought good too so, try that and give me a hit. But if I can help you in any way the igniter is yours.

Read Suprra girls hit and there is an online manual that has a dynamic trouble shooter chart.

I do need a car stereo what you asking?

Ive just learned that its my CPS that is bad. Check yours too. The cover is also missing off of it, And I dont know if that has anything to do with it. But im going to test all my coils, And Ill let you know if i still need one. Im asking 200 for the stereo(gota get shipping price, Or you can come up to LB and check it out), Thats less than half of what i paid for it, And its in perfect working order and just has a scratch on the face. It is an excelent stereo though.

Yup,
It was the distrib........$450.00 later including a complete Synthetic change and car is brand new again.......happy camper.


good luck with yours.
