this 90 gto tt i got keeps throwing CEL now it could be knock sensor gone faulty, or its becuase its running too lean and causing knock, i tried to pull the codes but the obd port is dead ie even a test light will not light on it.
tried every scanner possible and too that connect flawlessly to 1st gens, the ecu has had caps but only the two big ones were replaced, the smaller one is original, i also noticed that they repaired a couple of circuit tracks with solder to the cap beside the small cap, so i'm wondering if thats the problem?
what i am going to do is see if my buddy has any ecu's left from when he used to break them, and buy one then send that to be capped and checked over by the ecu doctor over here.
it feels like its pulling hard then hits fuel cut, all vac pipes are on and in the correct places, the actuators are connected, stock boost solenoid is connected correctly. no after market boost controllers are fitted its totally stock.
i replaced the lambda sensor thinking it was the problem but its not, i did this because i cant connect to pull codes so i assumed that a faulty sensor would give wrong signals to the ecu. but its doing the same.
as far as i am aware the MAF is functioning i did not disconnect it yet to see if anything alters but until i can pull codes i cant pinpoint the problem.
has anyone got any idea how i can connect to pull codes? how about direct to the ecu incase whoever fitted the alarm cut the obd harness? any pins i can probe to pull codes direct for the ecu?
