Need a little clarification on the fan wire.
On the Fiero side; CUT the Green\White off the FAN rely , CONNECT to the blue wire on the TinyCWA side?

Once you got it all wired up you can test it without starting the engine. If I remember correctly the system is programmed that if the temp sensor fails the pump and fan are full on. So, when you are done wiring just unplug the temp sensor and fan and pump should be running.
You can also bleed the system without starting the engine.[This message has been edited by La fiera (edited 12-23-2021).]

La Fiera ,
I can't get the pump to flow throughout the system. I tested the TinyCWA and put the dial on position #3 TEST MODE >> PUMP to 100% and Fan ON. I would assume, I would be able to squeeze the hoses and feel the flow. I don't feel anything.
I can hear the pump running. The rear of the car is in the air about 20" to ensure no air blocks. I also burped the system using a no spill funnel.
I don't know what I am doing wrong.

Where is the pump located?
If you use the thermostat there are specific settings to use.
I don't use the thermostat and run it with its corresponding setting and the pump is the lowest point in the cooling system.

Where is the pump located? It's up front , next to and below the shock used on the steering rack. <See pics on page 2 > It sits about 1-2 inches lower than the lowest part of the front bumper and below the lowest point on the radiator.
I removed the propeller from stock water pumps and don't use a thermostat.
When your pump is on; do you feel water pumping thru the top hose on the radiator?

Hello All,
With the help from La Fiera, I was able to get the pump working. Turns out I had a trap between the radiator and the water pump. Similar to would you find on your sinks and toilet; the S Bend. So I was not supplying the pump with water.
I re did the inlet to ensure a drop and leveled the hose ensuring no upward bend. Ran the car for over 30 minutes, in test mode 3 , using the TinyCWA (100% pump \ Fan ON) keep the care below 160 Degrees. I still need to install the temp sensor that came with the kit.
La Fiera... I can't thank you enough sir.
