Distributor sensor. sputtered doesn't match running. Also by bypassing the fuel relay you can have caused other issues as the fuel is linked to the igniti...

Found out the ballast injecter thingy was rooted so I replaced it with a newer one. I bought the inline fuse but how could I wire it in?

jamesinc

Your fuse panel plastic may be melted, but the metal contacts for the fuse should be fine. You could try wiring an extension in using two spade connectors?

It's hard to get the connecters as it's like all melted I'll see if I can use a knife and cut out the melted plastic

put a vacuum (or brush) on it and suck out all the little particles too, don't want them getting wedged between the contacts

Flat head screwdriver.

Do you have anyone with a mechanical idea who can actually help you? As you seem to be struggling with very basic things and a teacher in person would make it easier for you.

The switch to ULP was mandated in 1987; the B230 was introduced in the 1985 model year IIRC, so I am really not sure if we did or didn't. As you know, there are a (comparatively) small number of B230E cars running around,

Okay, so LH 2.2.

The book shows there are two different 8-pin connectors in the left hand side of the engine bay, and they're wired differently depending on which engine is fitted.

The switch to unleaded started in 1985.
Most Euro makers complied then. Holden a little latter with the VL.
My dad had a b23e 240 that supposedly could not take unleaded here. but I think that was due to the compression not some mechanical part.

I'm old enough to remember :(

Drill a hole feed the wires through and connect the spades on the back of the fuse holder.
And have the new holder sit above in the spot.

Alex is right a day with an experienced person and you will learn heaps.

The car has had someone at it
That can be very difficult to figure what work was done to fix it compared to what work was done in an attempt to fix it and has not worked.
Assume there has been an incorrect loom installed and specifically around the injector system.
This also could have taken out the fuel pump relay

Im using a flathead its just being a bitch to get the contacts clear. Will take a bit of time

I installed a new injector ballasts the ond one was rooted. Fixed the number one fuse. Car still won't start. Ive done the test for hall effect sensor and when I turn ignition on the tach does jump a little. Doesn't that mean it works? I'll buy a noid light and check it

Have you changed coolant sensor????

seriously not the issue with this car

cr80442

Got the 740 running, was something wrong with the injectors. Fires right up now. Thinking if I should spend the money and get it up to road worthy condition as it needs a good amount of work

jamesinc

So what did you do, replace the injectors?
