Okay, so I just bought this car for a project and once I got into it I realized it's going to need a lot more work than I thought.
I'll start off with it's a 1992 Galant vr4, belize green but has been rattle canned black. The 1 out of a 1000 number plate has also been ripped off.
When I got it, the guy I got it from said the kids he bought it from tried to wire it for subs and shorted something out or something like that. It appears that they've cut into the wiring harnesses everywhere, I have plugs just dangling in a lot of places, and cut wires.
It runs, but the Gauge cluster doesn't light up, the boost gauge doesn't work, the temp gauge doesn't work, and the fuel gauge doesn't work.
I drove it about 40 miles home, and it ran decently. It didn't seem to be very quick, I'd imagine it wasn't boosting very well.
My first goal is to get all the electricl straight, and then I can move to tune ups.
I have a few picture questions that maybe some of you could answer first
As a side note, I'm in high school and still learning about cars. I plan on going to UTI for auto, but I'm not quite there yet. I have a 95 eclipse gsx, but that's fairly stock as well.
There's 2 of these wired in, and the wiring is all taped up. What's this?
Am I missing fuses? I suck at reading the diagram. I'm guessing headlight maybe? Dunno, just seeing if this looks right.
There's a couple plugs here that were unplugged, not sure what they're too? And near that there was some sort of maybe vacuum line that was just plugged with a screw..
Just a picture of the car.
Thanks in advance for the help.
