Alright, so the new starter is awesome. I had a relay connection to the ASD relay going to the wrong place, and once I fixed it so the relay could fire I had spark and despite preparations including leather gloves and a spark tester, still managed to shock the crap out of myself. I had fire.
The Jeep ran for 10 seconds or so on starting fluid, so I know the engine is at least that good. Turbo was definitely turboing at idle...hehehe. What a nice little fan that makes.
Started trouble shooting the fuel issue. Checked electrically, forced one of the injectors to click with straight 12v applied, then listened with an extension to my ear and am certain there is clicking. Injectors 1 and 2 I could barely feel clicking, but it was there. Multimeter checking voltage just showed about 9.5 volts steady, which seems strange and makes me think the multimeter can't keep up with the pulses. Unfortunately I don't own a Fluke just yet, or an oscilloscope.
I don't have a good way to just check the fuel pressure at the rail, and stock Toyota procedure taps in at the body-mounted in-line filter inlet. Blah blah blah blah...
because someone at the shop I used to work at recently told me a line was a fuel inlet, when I'm going through the alldata on a Supra only to discover that is wrong. I imagine the pressure regulator doesn't like it when fuel is trying to go through it the wrong way.
I'm not gonna lie, I'm super irritated, yet kinda relieved and hopeful about tomorrow now.
How many times do I have to learn this lesson about taking another enthusiast's word for anything? Over and over I seem to fall into this one.
So yeah tomorrow I'm switching the fuel lines and seeing what happens. I think it's gonna be way too loud.
Time management and self-discipline are two other personal things I'm trying to get good at. Just took my Calc test and have Chem test next. I'll find out why I have no fire soon though.
