Snapping Fuses...
Ok. I drove my car up to the garage and it was fine, ran good and everything (minus the bad clutch). tore it down and put it back together all goes good. I start my car, take it down the road, and it's fine. I pull back in the garage and the turbo timer goes off and the car shuts off. I try to start it again after topping off the tranny fuild, so I can move it out of the garage... and nothing.. nothing.. nothing.. Car rolls over, fires and fires and fires.. Ok.. Maybe its' flooded.. Wait 10 mintues. Still nothing. OK.. now I check my fuses. I snapped my ECU fuse. Factory fuse is a 15amp. I snapped 2 of them. So I try a 20amp. Snap that also. After fiddling with it, I get it started and able to move it out of the garage. After I go threw about 6 fuses, I get the car to the TSC. Sits all night. I start it up to leave and snap anther fuse and now throwing a CODE and my car is running like ****!..
As I'm looking over the wires and checking grounds I see that my O2 sensor wire is burnt threw. So in my attempt to cut out the bad and rewire it back up so it'll work, I find that I need to wait and tear it down tomorrow to do it right. I cut the wire and tape it up away from the exhaust (temp fix to not futher dmg the wire).. I start the car. Car runs fine and no more snapped fuses. Still have the code tho and car runs fine now. I know the code is because my O2 sensor isn't working. But could that burnt wire cause me to snap my ecu fuses? I don't know, but maybe..
Any help would be greatly appreciated.. thanks guys..
