The bastard runs!!! Finally!
I'm not sure how many of you have been following my posts, but browsing the forum they should be pretty easy to identify.
I fixed the knock sensor and check engine light problem tonight. I figured out that it was a short in the harness somewhere. The damn CEL could not be cleared, so i figured this was automatically tripping the ecu, even after I cleared the code. I ran new wire to the ecu pin--to the knock sensor, cleared the codes successfully this time, and fired the car up and voila, no knock sensor!!!
After troubleshooting the pulse generator on the tranny i figured out it wasnt wired right, and so after figuring that out, i finally got the car to shift into OD. The car is also staying at the proper temperature!!
Sorry for the enthusiasm, the car has just been kicking my *** as of the last few weeks and its been really frusterating
C ya guys!

Crap, it wasnt even my car!
I was doing the work for my friend![Frown](https://www.rx7club.com/images/smilies/frown.gif)
Basically this means I have to start tending to my own cars, that were being neglected because of this whole debacle!
