this series of problems has been happening all day today. My fuel level would drop from 1/2 full to E, my signal lights in my cluster would stay on solid (not lettin me put my hazard lights on when on the side of the freeway), and when i am accelerating from any gear, there would be a series of times where the car just bogs. this would just happen randomly and i opening the throttle more to try getting the car going again. the car would be running fine then it wouldnt...the fuel level would go back to normal then it would go down...the signal lights would glow a lil then shut off.




im thinkin it could a bad ground from somewhere, bad fuel pump, or possibly some loose wires in my jumper harness/ECU (obd0-obd1 convo)

any help would be appreciated

 

it sounds your battery is ready to die. is the battery light on or not its? probably your alternator its probably fcked up already just replace it

 

I'm having very similar issues, go check out my thread. Somebody help usss haha!!

 

well wen i checkd my battery while i was stranded on the side of the freeway for a bit...the negative and positive ends were sorta loose from the terminal connection. im rollin with an oddysey battery

 

keep in mind that i have no CEL

 

that might be the problem is your engine swap thats probably the problem. oh and make sure the cable are realy tight i had the same problem before but it turns out my alternator has the problem and after 1 week my battery gave up then now the cables are my problem

 

I had similar problems on a car. It was a few things. Thermostat ground and my pgmfi relay. not the Main relay but its under the main relay. Its a little 1 inch by 3/4 inch box.

 

hmm ill definitely check up on the pgmfi relay and figure out wat potential wires are loose within the harnesses



so far today my car was runnin fine except for those random solid signal lights and some low gear bogging.

my thermostat grnd is solid,

aside from that i think my fast blinking turning signals (happened after i put things back together from painting) may have something to do with it. ddnt think so tho

 

Sounds like it has to do with the alternator

^^^^^
i agree 100%
that AND check the voltage with a volt meter check the battery voltage (write it down) then hook up the positive directly to the battery terminal and touch the negative at the engine block the on the frame itself if the battery voltage is higher than the chassis and engine you have a bad ground somewhere
you can do what i did for a quick fix and get a ground wire for an amp i had lying around and hook it from the negative batter cable to the engine to get home

 

Oh yeah. if you have a cold air intake chect to see if its grounding out on it. My roomates car did the same thing

 

alrite so ive checked all the grounds i could think of. i went to turn on my lights in the car and only my headlights come on fine... i got one bulb from my passenger corner light and the taillights are sooooo dim.

checked for blow fuses in the fuse box and ddnt find any
