I encountered another bump on the cooling side, the straight water neck just too close to my spreader bar.
So I ordered a 45° swivel one, and we now have the cooling sorted. Still have to make the fan mounting tab a bit more sturdy, and little paint wouldn't hurt.
The fan frame is from a Ford Focus but I swapped out the motor for those of the Sebring.
Now the fuel.
First I decided to put the fuel rail back into it's original orientation, cut the support tab on the inlet port in otder to bend it enough to clear the coils. The unconnected AN line on the passenger side is the return line (now obsolete).
Then the intake. It's a temporary setup as the air filter lie just under the hood vents (not to be driven in the rain).
I said temporary because I have plan for the future.....
While I was at it I took some time to rework the engine bay harness. I had this junction box I picked in a GM truck at the scrapyard. It helped the sort out all the 12v wires.
And now the bug : The ECU location.
Where was I going to put this brick?
With the help of the example of some fellow CF member, I came up with this:
It the frame of the ECU support you find in GM trucks.
I trimmed it down to what you see:
It straps to the coolant overflow tank.
The connector is stuck all the way back into the fender, but it's ok because the retainer mechanism still work on the support. So I can unclip it, pull it out and then disconnect it.
Stilll have the fusebox to locate, much easier job.
