Finally starting to diassemble engine. So many connectors just crumble when touched. Heat and age sure work their magic on plastic. Then there...
Finally looked up rear differential info on my pickup. Glad to find out I have the 8" diff (G code). That will handle the 1UZ nicely. It's a...
I'm gonna bother you with another question. Is your truck manual steering?
Thanks for posting this. I'm doing a 1UZ swap in my 89 reg cab and wanted an upgrade, but wanted something bolt on. I'll have enough fab work...
Your swap is looking great. You are moving fast. Mine is gonna take forever. How many miles on that donor engine? I'm just like you- I can't...
Nice progress on the truck. Certainly gives me inspiration. I finally got my engine/trans pulled from my donor today. So the MR2...
Alright folks, I pulled the engine/ trans from the donor vehicle (1993 LS400) today. I'm officially marking it as the start of my 1UZ swap. It's...

I finally got around to pulling the cover plate off the ECM. Looks very clean, no burn marks, hot spots, etc. There are 2 big gray resistors...
I will have to take the cover off and inspect the circuit board. The PN is 89661-3D070. Some guy on yotatech was asking about ECM interchange...
I was thinking it may be an ECM since I was running out of options. Yes I do get spark - very strong spark. If I put gas into the intake...

I removed the distributor, spun it by hand, key ON, with a screwdriver to my ear I could hear the injectors clicking. The pickup coil is working...
Very interesting. Love all the engineering involved. I really like the rear disc brake conversion. Nice work

Thanks for the replies. Yes, all the ground straps are secured. I am getting 12V to the injectors (constant B+ with key in "RUN" position) I...
