Thanx for the suggestion, I did find the value, so for anybody who finds this in the future, the caps are .01 uf which i believe is 10,000 pf

Does anybody know the value of the ceramic capacitors used on the factory delco stereo radio amps? I'm referring to the ceramic caps on the aluminum heat sink. usually those caps will have a number on them such as 473 472 4700 etc. which is the pf (pico farad) value i'm looking for. The heat...

Who watched the Mecum Auto Auction on HD theatre? Man did thoes C4's go cheap or what? And I thought you couldnt get a good deal at an auction.

OK so I got the wire from the ECM A5 going to the ground side of the SES light and a known working bulb in the slot. I have on the ALDL plug the 2 wires needed: pin A on ALDL blk/white going to ground, wht/blk from ECM going to Pin B (according to ChevyThunder) oz, you said that the wht/blk...

cool, ALDL is all hooked up. All i got to do now is figure out how the Check engine light hooks into this mess. Im going to locate the wires in the dash that go to the SES and hopefully figure out what to hook them to. chevy thunder says the under dash terminal plug (prong C) (ecm A5) this...

The pressure switch is not hooked up yet. So if the pump kicks back on after cranking, I can assume the ignition module in the dist is OK then? If I'm reading that correct... the ecm is seeing the ref pulse and kicking the pump on. About the ALDL, I have one from an old 93' s10. it has...

Good call, I would like to see the code 12, maybe I'll install the ALDL tonight. I was just assumiong that the ECM was working bcause the fuel pump runs when the key is on, and once I start to crank the engine the pump then runs again after a few seconds.

To start, i have an auxiliary fuse box and all fuses are good. If i spray carb cleaner in the engine it will run. But I'm not sure if this is spark coming from the computer or if it's somehow just working like an old one wire pickup truck. No, unfortunatley I dont have the FSM book. Or a...

I decided to get one of thoes Baker electronic VAT modules. So I put it on and still got nothing to the injectors. I only can think of a few more possible problems. 1. the Ignition control module might be bad 2. i dont have the cold start wire hooked up to 12v yet (not sure this would...

Did not know corvettes where know as "y body" learn something new everyday :) Baker electronics.... only $25 sweeeeeet!!!!!! Do you know if they are reputable? Sounds like its just what I need. Thanx for that info. super cool.

Chevy Thunder says 1986 350 5.7l so thats for sure a vette prom? There was no camaro with a 350 in 1986 I take it. Cool, well I talked to the guy who I got this stuff from and he failed to mention (until today) some of the parts were corvette parts but he couldnt remember what exactly. Must...

The oil pressure switch is not hooked up only the pressure gauge (fat metal one) is hooked up. A guy on another post said it should run fine without it hooked up. I tried jumping a wire across it and naturally the pump kicked on. So that PROM was NEVER used on an 87' camaro at all? No...

ECM is # 1227165 PROM # (on side) 16035006 8630 (on chip) 16055376 (sticker) delco AANK 1732 Sorry, 87' camaro not 86' I'll just talk to you on this one, easier than switching back n fourth. After reading that aticle, I'll try to check the TPS voltage. Fuel pump situation... when the...

I have been fighting this no injector pulse situation, could it be the VAT system? The encoded key as I remember on my C4 has got to have somthing to do with this problem. Basically I took a stock harness from an 86 camaro and the whole tpi unit and put it on a truck. So if the VAT system...

"ohms law" that was an informative read, thanx so here's a question... If I swap the Ignition control module, does it matter if it's from a 305 or 350? It should function just the same right?

oh also, do you know what the ohms should read for a pickup coil in the small remote coil distributors? Does 800 sound abot right?

No I did not yet check the resistance of the injectors. But I have 2 sets of them and with the injectors stil in the engine I plugged another (loose) injector into the harness and still got nothing. Who sells a noid light? and do I check the ECM with it or the injectors? Not sure how they work...

update: if i jump a wire across the pressure switch plug the fuel pump runs. So that doesn't help.

Will a TPI car still run if the oil pressure switch is not plugged in? I have the oil pressure sensor hooked up but not the oil pressure swich. It cuts the fuel pump I think. My pressure switch is a 3 prong and the plug is a 2 prong. Can i jump a wire accrosss the plug? thanx

Hey guys, I know this is a really common problem but everyone seems to have different problems occuring causing this NO pulse situation. So my question is.. how do you manually pulse the injectors to test them? I have heard of people doing this in the past. My setup is from a 1986 camaro 305...
