Yea i pulled it out.

Will i have a CEL do to that switch not being connected?

will i have any issues for initial break in because of it?

 

also

Where is this copper gasket from? I forgot where it came from when me and my neighbor pulled it out

 

Anyone?

 

post another angle of it

 

 

@trd07tc- if you can answer my questions i would really appreciate it bud (:

 

damn im trying to think where that gasket is from. I want to guess its an exhaust gasket because of the black inside and it looks to be about 2 1/4" diameter. Not sure though.

Wouldnt worry about the power steering connector too much. I am 99% sure it doesnt throw a CEL and it wont affect your break-in period.

 

It is definitely an exhaust gasket. heers:

 

yep located on the midpipe if memory serves (been quit a long while since iv seen a stock exhaust

 

thanks guys i had figured it out!

so ive got the new engine bolted to the mounts, ive got the clutch lines on the trans, and the slave cylinder bolted (although not bled,yet. clutch sinks to ground). I'm stuck on what to start connecting, putting back, bolting up, manual doesnt really give detail. if someone could help me out?

 

just start putting it back together the way that you pulled it apart? if instead of waiting for an answer on here you were just re assembling, you'd be done before you get an answer.

I've pulled two engines with no manual or anything and just used common sense on how to do it. Hell, one of them we left the axles in the transmission and pulled it out that way lol

 

What color is the oil control valve connector?

 

OCV connector?

The VVTI connector is on the end of the loom with the 4 injector connectors
The oil pressure sensor connector is a single black wire connector

 

Ok theres only one last thing from me being able to crank it over, i had the battery holder on, my battery connected went into the car to see if it showed power but it didnt. I looked in to the engine bay and seen the other end of the black terminal of the battery dangling my question is where does the other end bolt to?
Heres a pic for reference:

The other end of that ^^

 

On the other end there should be two terminals, one bolts to the chassis under the battery tray (chassis ground), the other bolts to the trans (engine ground)

 

Ok i found the one under the tray but which hole exactly does the other terminal bolt up to on the trans??

 

I bolted the other end to the hole above the starter on the tranny. Still no power at all to the car. Battery is fully charged. Maybe i Bolted it to the wrong hole. Does the ECU need to be plugged in to get power? Because im trying to do the break in method that trd07tc said to disconnect the ecu and plugs. Please im trying to finish my car

 

it doesnt matter what hole you use as long as its unpainted, clean metal.

 

yup, what he said ^^

 

Everythings grounded and im still getting no power whatsoever
