same car newer engine. But this has been a well kept secret for a while. But im just stumped plus there are a few extra wires i can't figure out where they go. studyed the diagrams and connected all the ones i saw and traced out but that brings me up to where i am at now. oh and thanks jcassity.

softtouch has the older evtm,, incase you have body harness wiring quesitions. 
other than that john, i wouldnt be able to give you anymore wiring info than what i have.

if all is well, then with your key on, and crossing the solenoid should result in the starter kicking in.  if it does not, back off and think about what you have wired.

also, make double sure your battery connections are good as well as your ground cable from the bat to frame and to engine block.

If the eec relay does not get power, a lot of stuff wont work that are relay controlled as well.

when you turn on your key, you should have power on one of the legs going to the eec relay.  check that first off.

Sup bro. I think I have both. 1..... Make sure your starter is hooked up right, all the wiring is connected. Remember my car did this when me and you and steve did it.
 
Fual pump... same thing to test, ground a wire to get it to work. If not run a hot wire like we did.

si its safe to say its ether my wire to the starter or ground? ive gone over my grounds even had to make a new one for the ground from the batt to chassie. but i know there is a red/lighr green wire on the body harness that gets power with key on but i have no clue what it controled or goes to. fuel pump relay maybe? any insire would help greatly since its getting ever closer to snowfall(cringes) and i do whant to drive her before then. also i don't whanna run a hot wire o it permanatly just to test it. i do want to do this right since it is a project that ive wanted to do for many yrs now.
