O.k, another post guys. This is where I'm at. Just reinstalled motor after build, and used the power up wires to check and make sure all my gauges were firing up before initial start up. I messed up, and mixed the polarity up, so posi went to negative, and negative went to positive on my 12volt power supply. Crap!! after about a minute of being hooked up, me playing with my gauges, I heard a pop, and a fizzle from the ecu area under the hood. Then i realized that I had the wires crossed. The sled started up fine, so I loaded it up to go to the hills to snow test it and break her in. Hoping that I didn't fry a capacitor, or the ecu. I unload it, and take it for a quick parking lot lap, and she is running like crap. The motor sounds o.k, just idling really low. And when I juice the throttle, it sounds like it hesitates, and then stalls when I get back to the truck.It also doesn't wanna go into reverse. I know I know, check the tps, but it's not that. I have a new tps, and harness and have adjusted it at the beginning of this season. Sled has been running great all year until some recent motor troubles,that have been solved, (thanks to indy dan!!). So the question is, did I fry the brain of the ol girl when I reversed the power up wires?? I might just pull the ecu out and have a look at it to see if I can see any oooz coming from any of the capacitors. Engine check light is coming on as well. Just constantly flashing, with no real sequence. What are your thoughts?
