thanks for your replies. No, I have not yet checked for 12V, but how would I know that it's ignition if it's 12V? Is the ignition the only thing that runs 12V? The hood light is ran seperately and works.

In the bundle of wires above my Ty's brake booster, I noticed an orange wire that is severely damaged...the entire wire will need to be replaced. I was wondering what this wire is for. I noticed that there are 2 other orange wires with the same gauge. Does anyone know what the orange wires are for?

problem addressed & new question problem addressed & new question I finally got around to dealing with the problem. I spliced into the starter wire from the wiring bundle above the brake booster. I ran a new 10g wire. My Ty starts, but I will have to wait for a long drive to truely test it...

Thanks for your help Thanks for your help Thanks everyone for your help. The pic really helped also. It turned out that one of the vacuum lines was connected to the wrong place and the other wasn't connected at all. I got new hoses and connected them like the pic. Everything seems to be...

Thanks for the pic. I'll let you know more when I get a chance to work on my Ty. It's raining here now, and I probably won't get a chance to work on it for a couple of weeks, so give me some time for feedback. Thanks again.

thanks for your replys. It looks to me like the hose/lines aren't all connected. However, I'm not really sure where they should all go. I tried searching around to find pics (so I don't seem like an amateur) but I can't find any of what the setup is supposed to look like. To tell you the...

A couple of weeks ago, I found that my intercooler was seperating from the intake. With your help, I found that I was missing the brackets that hold the IC in place, and I fixed it by making 2 out of the three stock brackets. Yesterday, I drove my Ty and experienced a great take off with just...

Thanks for the reply. I'll try that as soon as I get a chance.

Hey guys, my typhoon won't start when the engine gets hot. If the car has been running for a while, I have to wait for it to cool down before it will start. I figured there was a problem with the starter, so I put in a new one...I still have the same problem. Do any of you know what it could...

I called a couple of dealers...they said the part was discontinued (not a surprise). They said I could probably make the parts myself...they're going to fax me a detailed diagram of the parts...I guess including bolt sizes. Thanks for the part #'s turbodog...they helped the dealers locate...

O.K. Turns out nothing is holding the IC in place. The only bracket that remains is #4 from Jimmy's drawing (thanks for the drawing). However, the top screw from that bracket is missing (the one that attatches to the IC). I guess I would do it Turbodog's way if I have to, but I would like to...

Thanks alot guys. I'll check it out tomorrow. Come to think of it, it probably does have soemething to do with the mounting...the intercooler moves side to side pretty freely. I'll let you know.

While I was driving my Ty last week the hose that connects the intercooler to the engine intake disconnected itself. I reconnected the hose and tightened the clamp...the next time I drove, the same thing happened. I took the hose off both the intercooler and the engine intake and noticed that...

I am planning to get the HKS Super Sequential Blow-Off Valve, but I don't think I can put it in myself. Need help. I'm no mechanic but I don't want some idiot messing up my Ty-if thats the case i'd rather do it myself. Is there anyplace that I can take my Ty where they know whats up? I don't...
