As most probably wouldn't know (not sure if I posted here about it) I wrote off my white 4Runner in a 4WD mishap.
Anyways i've bought another one, the same style 4Runner (same V6 petrol manual etc) and have all but finished putting the 1UZ accross into it. In my original conversion I had Sideshow do the wiring for me.
I finally got it running last night. So the problem is, I turn the ignition on and I can here the usual relays doing their thing etc. When I start it it starts and idles fine, if left idling it will run for about 10 seconds then start to fade out till it eventually stalls.
If I manage to get the revs to rise (very hard as it tries to stall) it will run for about 7 seconds and then drop out. So i'm thinking it's starving for fuel as everything looks normal. The fuel pump must be getting power because it's defintely priming the fuel line.
Just wondering if anyone has any suggestions (Sidey?) as to what I may have missed? The engine loom was already done from the last conversion so I don't have to touch that surely. I copied everything I could see that Sidey had done on the body side of the harness (the engine side to ECU is already done by him.) Where the harness plugs into the body loom I added the Peel saftey switch that Sideshow had done and i've attached the harness in the engine bay to the engine one (altenator etc.) Is there something else i've overlooked? Like I said it starts fine and idles great, but only for a limited time.
I would get Sideshow just to come and find the fault but he's ausually booked out for weeks at a time and I need this truck going!
