Smog Harness Removal

11/2/10


This was too easy.. Just find the big blue harness on the back of the engine compartment, start at the positive side of the coil and work backwards to the bottom of the fuse box. Then plug a new 16 gage wire into the now open slot on the 12th fuse and string it over to the positive side of the coil.

Before:

During:



MUY IMPORTANTE:  ON LATER CARS WITH NO BALLAST RESISTOR YOU HAVE A CLEAR WIRE AT THE COIL THAT IS PART OF THIS LOOM.  THE WIRE IS THE RESISTOR AND YOU NEED TO USE THE ENTIRE LENGTH AS PART YOUR WIRE FROM THE 12TH FUSE. THIS KEEPS THE FEED TO THE COIL AT 9 VOLTS.  STRAIGHT OFF THE FUSE IS 12V AND CAN DAMAGE YOUR COIL OR IGNITION!!


After:


Not sure what I was so nervous about..
