as some of you know i recently got a 98 kouki....and went off and swaped the sr from my 96 to my 98......today we got done mounting the fmic...battery...it was time to crank the car.....the car woudnt crank for some reason, the starter is not getting power??we can start the car but not the normal way... also an other thing is when the car gets to a normal tempeture it wants to bog when you give gas.....can anybody help me out with these problems.....i dont see why im having problems because everything worked just fine when the sr was in my 96...but now that i swaped everything to 98 it wants to give me hell, is there more things i need to swap over other then the bottom and top wiring harness and all of the parts that goes for the motor?.....priciate any kind of help..tnx.

Your SR's harness is wired for a 96 240... the 98 240 harness has some wiring variations.

Chances are you cut/tore/shorted a wire on the harness when you did the re-swap. Check on you coolant temp sensor connection and does the 98 have an alarm system on it?

Check all the wireing

no everything worked just fine when the same motor was in my 96....now that is in the 98 is acting up....when the tempeture gets to normal level the motor bogs when you give it gas?? anyone been through this?

i can bypass the start and start the motor but it wont start normaly as in by its self when you turn on the keys....like the start not getting power...but i know for sure that everything works with this motor cuz it was in my 96 and everything worked fine....so i need to find out why the start wont crank....and for the bogg, i havent put my 255walbro fuel pump yet coud that be why? MAF was fine on my last car

Fuel pump is not the issue. Keep checking your harness.
