Hello everyone. I just bought my first (older) toyota, its a Straight axled 91 22re. However, the prievous owner was a friend who after the ECU went bad, he started ripping off all of the EFI stuff to try to swap it to carb. Thats when i bought it. i cleaned everything up, bought new gaskets, and slapped it all back together with a different used ECU. i can't quite get it to run, it will barely fire here and there, i have good fuel pressure and spark. There are extra wires out of the wiring harness i have no clue of their destination. i know the Emissions crap was taken off a long time ago and it still ran well, i don't need it here. I appreciate any help!! i want to get this girl on the road again. Here are some pics.

Your ground wire on the intake manifold looks like its broken or frayed, that will cause headaches. Be sure to fix / clean torque that properly, FI depends on that ground in particular. Also your EGR is still there and may be stuck open. I suggest the two bolts on the back of the intake be loosened and a tin can strip be glued in to seal that off; cheap. Also you fuel pressure VSV is missing and that means fuel pressure issues, and I see a few bad vacuum leaks around the throttle body and poor workmanship. You really do need a copy of the FSM to get the leaks and fuel issues fixed.

Definitely get a clamp on the silicone elbow, if any unmetered air is getting into the throttle body its not going to want to run.
