Yesterday, with some help from my 2 boys, I got my '76 2.0 short block on the engine run stand. I need help setting it up. It's late 2.0, complete, all stock, EFI. I'm looking for any info, any help at all. I've read few dozen threads about engine stands, but most of them deal with yokes, adapters and such. I need help with wiring and actually test running the engine. If local guys can stop by this long weekend and land me a hand, you'd really do me a solid and I'll return the favor. I'll serve beer of your choice. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

It looks like you are not getting power to the ECU. If you are getting spark, there is no reason why it shouldn't at least fire on some of the cylinders.
It looks like you have the fuel injestion harness hooked up, but are not switching power thru the relay board which is where the ECU is powered from. I think that would be pin 1 of the 4 pin connector You need to provide power to pins 12 and 14, then switched power to 8 and a ground to 10, all on the 14 pin connector. I think that would get power to the ECU. Tom |

Tom I hope you don't mind my adding some diagrams, but if I ever build my own run-stand one day, this thread would be a handy reference for the electrical hook-up.
