as you all know by now i have been having one hell of a time resurrecting my trusty ol 1986 740 wagon.

well i finally traced it down to degraded engine harness. i have checked and heatshrinked all of the exposed wires all the way back to good wiring(where i could no longer pull insulation off with fingernail) and buttoned everything back up.
i seperated the alt to starter red plus wire as stated. i also had to replace the fuel and icu(spark) computers as atleast the icm was fried due to the bad wiring(fuel pumps did not engage)

now that the fuel pumps are working once again as well as the rpm needle jumping when i attempt to start her(ignition amp. swap fixed that) the car will not kick over. i can smell fuel so i know fuels no longer an issue. i furthermore replaced the injectors with the greentop bosch(may be blue) from a turbo 740 mid 1980s vintage i had laying around(had them when i was trying to convert to e-85 but gave up lol)

what else could have been zapped from the bad wiring? and what else should i test/replace?

resurrection day is near i can taste victory but the war is still raging. has died down dramatically though thank god.
