    I know it sounds silly, but my friend suggested a very simple yet fitting name... Blue. I like it.

          That's good news John, I'm glad to see it go to a good home. I got to take it home as a donor car once and I enjoyed cruising in it. Does make me want an aero...

          Now you need a whale to complete the set. Collect them all!

              I don't like the hoods on whales... too dome-ish. Aeros are much better.

              I'm liking "Blue"

              But if it starts hunting for clues... I'll be worried.

                    Hope you have the notepad with the halfass wiring diagram because thats all the documentation there is. Its pretty shaky though, so hope nothing goes terribly wrong It is a basically stock car and engine harness though, so the interface should be easy enough to troubleshoot. It all unplugs anyway if you really want to dissect it.

                          I was waiting with paypal ready. You bastard.

                          Also, if anyone can dissect the wiring on that car, John can. He's pretty smart with that wiring stuff.

                            I already had it apart and wired in a few things that weren't hooked up. I tucked that wire that was added last minute to make it run. I added the O2 sensor heater wire so they will warm up faster so I can use less gas. I added the power in crank wire to the TFI module that was cut and left tucked up in the harness by the fuse box. It seems to run much better.

                            Next up for it is a new seat. Maybe a set if I can find the cloth signature seats. The drivers seat is broken, it kinda lunges forward when you brake and falls back when you accelerate. It's kinda unsettling.

                            Then a keyless entry as I detest using the key to unlock the doors.

                              The O2 sensor heaters weren't powered? Hmm, that should have been part of the stock 91 harness I'd think. Curious about the TFI wire. I'm suspecting it wasn't so much cut as just never hooked up, or perhaps it was cut because it got mixed up with another wire. Ah well. I make no claims to having that harness be bug-free. It was slapped together in a weekend using one book and fuzzy scans of another to piece together how to make it function. Have you ever poked further into the variable assist steering? I'm reasonably sure its hooked up, but I think the problem is the pump just isn't the right one, or more probably the spring as the pressure regulator isn't the correct one. Its the pump from the Tbird. One from a 90 Townie would most likely make it behave better.
