Went to the scrap yard, pulled another BP09 ECM with plugs... my PCV hose (lost the original
![Dunno :dunno:](./images/smilies/dunno.gif)
Yay.
Got to Mazda, and ran the VICS wire, put the pin into the stock plug. Super easy, but I'll explain anyway.
Get a plug you don't need, with a pin you need in it. The long sides of each plug will unclip and fold away. Once you do that, push with a little tool into the pin, and pull on the wire at the same time and it will pop out. to install it again, just push it in(with the side fodled down), it should click.
People talk about running red/white to the ECM as well, but thats silly because its part of the injector harness, and mostly everything else.
The coolant temp sensor is part of the injector harness, which is different than the SOHC harness. The effect is that the injector harness is a 8 plug on the BP and 6 plug on the SOHC. (extra two wires on bp are the +VICS wire (black/brn, or something like that) and the coolant ground...(my was messed, I had two of the exact same wire running to two different parts of the coolant sensor apparatus... I hope I wired it right) I cut the plug off of the main harness and wired in the BP one, because I'm switching rails later again, so I only want to do it once.
Not sure what to do with the disty. They are both the same plug, and 3 wires are the same, but on the BP its a yellow/blue (i think) and on the mx harness its solid orange. hmm. Just plug and see what happens.
picked up some 75W90 half synthetic for the tranny
some castrol 5W10 crap to flush out new ring residue and such...and a filter.
So now all I need is time, I have everything else. Alty needs to go in, and then everything after that (axles, exhaust and such) and then battery and intake... and thats all.
Should be running next saturday
