Quad 4 swap (lot of pics) (Page 16/31)

I had to make sure the fuel injectors worked and were flow matched to each other.
So I hooked up the fuel rail to our injector tester. It has a fuel pump with filter, return line, and injector connector on a switch.










I ran gas and injector cleaner through the injectors, they were pretty cloged to start.
I ran it through untill I got a good flow out of them.




Since I had it all hooked up, I decided to leave it all like this, when I went camping for a week. I wanted to make sure all the gummed up residue was cleaned out.
Thus the lack of updates to this thread for a bit.
When I got back I tested the fuel pressure regulator. I used a pressure gauge and a vacume pump.








I then weighed the output of each injector, to make sure they all flowed the same.




So far so good.

Here is what I did for the ICM to help it fit on the backwards cover.

First of all I got a nice black IDI, instead of the other 5 white ones I have.




I added heat sink grease to the IDI cover where the ICM makes contact with it.




Then I made a spacer to hold the ICM to the IDI cover. I used a piece of conveyor belt wrapped in 3 layers of rubber from an old tube, glued all together.








It slides in between the coil cover and the ICM to hold it tight against the IDI cover.




With it in place.






I have been really busy lately and not enough time to work on it. I have been working on the harness when I find some time.
I've had to remove all the 84 stuff, convert it to an 87, fix some things in the harness, upgrade some wires to what I want, and add a fuel pump hot wire kit.

Every time I open this thread and see a picture of a transmission it makes me sad.

Then I scroll down and see progress. Then I'm happy again. Looking good man.

I got the wiring harness all soldered up last night. I still have to put loom on it and tape it all up.
I will get pics tomorrow.
I was able to add a fuel pump hotwire kit(so to speak) into the harness. Now I have a good gauge wire feeding the fuel pump relay off of a fused connection by the battery. Doing so I was able to eliminate about 16 ft of small gauge wire, and now I have an extra fused ign wire at the C203 if I ever want to add something in the cab. I still want need to figure out a good cable system for the alt and battery. I want/need good power system in this Fiero for the stereo/amps. I allready have a 4 gauge going to my amps from the battery and a huge ground strap, but the alt wire needs more. (the one in my GT allready gets hot just at idle, I need to upgrade that one too)

Here is the ECM wiring diagram I used for the harness. This one is for 89-91, my ECM is from a 91'

The other years can be found from the same place about half way down the page(don't worry about reading the page)

http://www.kolumbus.fi/jani.makynen/page3.html


For the C500 and C203 pinouts I used the 87 Servive Manual.
That and some other years can be found at Fieronews.net (and alot of other good Fiero downloads)

Here is the start of the harness.






I labeled each wire to where it goes as I unpinned the 84 C500
And I measured a piece of wood and clamped it to the cradle dolly and marked it where the C500 is and screwed on a stock power block.






Where I put the grounds.




Almost ready for loom, I have to shorten about a half a dozen wires.

Then I got distracted by the Thunderbirds practicing over the shop today, for the upcoming air show, so I got a few pics.
We see this almost everyday over the shop/club here, I know not Fiero related, but I thought I would share.






Four in tight formation.




All six.




This one was coming in like for a landing but nose pointed up and instead of landing, he took off again. coming in real slow sideways.




And this was is a little blury but he was going straight up.



The air show this weekend should be great. Nothing like working on a Fiero with a dog fight over your head.
