With the MAF not hooked up, it wont even run
but if you have access to any proper testing equipment by all means just test it instead lol the above is more of a side of the road troubleshooting technique.

^^Thanks Ryan, when i was lowering the KJ into the bay, i was getting a bit worried i was gunna have to do some major modifications to the intake to get everything to clear lol i guess i got lucky though lol
Anyway, just another little update, i've been fighting with this cold all week long and still haven't touched the P5, i doubt i'll be able to touch it tomorrow, and saturday morning i'll have to work so with any luck, saturday afternoon i can make some progress again

So i'm finally feeling well enough to work on the P5 today, i got the heater core hoses on and filled up the rad with anti-freeze etc. and i STILL have that running issue
There are NO vacuum leaks, all grounds are connected, even a few extra grounds for good measure, it idles extrememly good, but just won't rev up except on fresh start up
I am officially confused as to WTF is going on with it, i can only assume the computer gets put into "safe" mode after the first few seconds of running, and i have no idea what the f*** it could be.... does anyone have any ideas?

have you tried pulling codes? there can be codes on the ecu even without the CEL lighting"Discontent is the first necessity of progress."

I have not tried pulling codes yet, simply because i'm not sure how too lol
I do have the diagnostics port still on the KJ harness and it looks identical to the KL diagnostic port
Although today i tried checking to see if the CEL was on or not using my voltmeter at the ECU, and as long as i was testing the right wire (which i'm sure i was) then i have NO CEL on right nowLast edited by Damkid; 11-20-2011, 01:18 PM.

the diagnostic port would be the exact same. its just a ODB2 port. even one in a kia or a bmw would be the same. there universally the same in all cars that are 96+~PaTricK~
