[8D]OK guys I've made some progress on the engine swap , new 4.0 salvage replacement engine is IN there. Now i have a few questions i'm asking for some help with.
1. on top of the auto transmission there is a plastic vent hose, I broke the plastic fitting , Where doe the hose go ?? I hope it just vents to the ground and i will get new fitting and hose.
2.To hook up the starter I have 2 insulated heavy wires under the vehicle (silver jacketed).iknow 1 goes to the starter, in a orangeplastic cradle alond with a small wire, but where does the other 1 go . To me i cant see anyplace for it to mount, is it to a ground? or is there a bulk head im not seeing ?
3. When my old engine failed, got very hot and went into fault mode shutting down 1/2 the cylinders,Now that ive got the replacement engine in there , should i be concerned of any reset for the computor, when i try and start with new engine , or because i took off batterey did this reset ??
Here is my cell # if you would like to help me over the phone. 812-430-5744 thx Scott
