As the owner of a 74 1.8 that hasn't started in 32 years I replaced the fuel lines (Tangerine) the fuel pump (thanks wndsnd) and most of the vacuum lines, but when it came time to try and start it, I was getting nothing.
I would get some lights, the radio, horn and wipers but the engine wouldn't crank. So today I took Dave Darlings advice to remove the Seatbelt Interlock Relay. I did it more to get something done on the car for further on down the road when I intend on trying to get it to run. Just for the heck of it I decided to hook up the battery and turn the key, VOILA!, the motor cranked! It hasn't started yet but hearing the motor turn was a big relief and quite exciting. Steve |

QUOTE(Dave_Darling @ Dec 20 2015, 10:50 PM)  Excellent, congrats on getting the next step! --DD Are you just removing the Relay and leaving the wiring intact or are you fooling the system and rewiring and/or jumpering the sensors. The reason I ask is I'm working on a 74 2 liter that is a roller. The PO had butchered the wiring harness and I'm trying to set it straight. Area of concern that's left is the dreaded Seat Belt Warning Relay. Current tracks 64 and 65 are jumpered as well as 68 and 69. Pin 31 of the relay, ground, is partially connected. I've got one ground wire that looks to go thru the fire wall bulkhead and head to the engine area but can't seem to locate it there. Argh. Is there a Tech Brief that explains the Jumpering method to eliminate Selt belt warning. I can't locate anything on the site. |
