will a SOHC engine wireing harnes work on a DOHC motor? with the dohc ecu?? i have swaped motors in domestic cars but never imports so i gotta ask.....


..... when i pulled the auto tranny off my dohc motor(bought the motor from a junkyard, it still had the trany on it) there are no bolts right there to take the flywheel off! is there something else i have to take off to expose them or are they somewhere else???
(the car is a stick so i asume i have to swap the flywheel like in a domestic yes?)

If i have to take the wiring harnes(never taken it out b4) does it also hook to all the gauges and the clock and **** or are they 2 sets of wires?

thanx for any help

 

the harness it self are the same shape, however, the SOHC wiring has blanks in it where the dohc will have wires. you will need to add 2 wired to the sohc harness.

 

what do you mean by that? i have to splice in new plugs to the harnes?

 

or just run 2 wires where it pluge to the ecu then to where?

 

noo look at the pic, you just need ot add 2 wires to the harness. go cut another harness out of another protege, break the harness, grab 2 end wires, and plug them into the harness. you will need to plug wires into the top left 4 in and top right 4 in on the 26 pin harness(aka the big one

 

one goes the the 4th space ont eh disty, one goes to the VICS solinoid

 

ok, 2 new wires into the ecu plug and run them to where?

 

coll thanx bro

 

one goes to the disty. on the DOHC the disty has 4 wires not 4 and one goes to the VICS solinoid.

the top 4th slot from the rhs is for the VICS, the top 4th slot from the lhs is the disty

 

just to clarify, if you need help fell free to pm or e-mail me. and i have spare wiring plugs for the harness.

 

ok im not to good with wiring so is the wiring harnes just the plugs for the motor or does it have the wires for the gauges and **** too?
