Ok, I have a brand new 3vze in. it came with a new distributor. the kind with a pigtail and a square looking plug.

my wiring harness is setup for the blade style plug, not the square kind. I need help wiring this up. it is the only thing keeping me from driving this today.


Wires coming out of harness.

Yellow red black green

Wires on Dizzy
Yellow White Red Green

 

might help if we knew the year of your truck so we can look for the wiring diagram for you.

Putting info like this in your sig is a big help.

 

Ahh... it's a 1994 4runner

 

The Dizzy Looks like this

 

one thing that comes to mind is if that thing is actually compatible with your year, if it is then you would think it would have the correct plug.

 

that's funny because the 1990-1995 FSM wiring diagram shows White Red Green and Black which doesn't match any one of your combos. lol

again, this is a brand new engine.... not from the same vehicle

 

It was supposedly out of a 1994 4runner

 

so the motor and what you have were supposed to be both a 1994 4runner? because neither one accoridng to the FSM is matching up with the wire colors in the FSM.

 

Welcome to my life man.

Yes, the motor was out of 1994, the 4runner I have is a 1994.

 

Actually... under better light. The harness is white red green black

 

ok that's better then that follows the FSM, only other thing is left is the 88-89 3vze which the fsm doesn't list the colors.

 

1988-89 dizzy



1994 dizzy




looks like you got an 88-89 dizzy my friend. Now whether or not the 88-889 works on a 94 is out of my league lol.

 

Here's a pic of my 88 3VZE distributor plug wires.

 

holy hell, why is it so hard to find these 88-89 wiring diagrams. the 88 SM includes only the 22r series. grrr lol.

 

thanks Mud Hippy that's what he has now we need to know where those wires go lol. the 94 manual does not cover the 88-89 wire colors/pin locations. The diagram for the 88-89 was posted on here but is no longer up.

and these are unreadable lol.

this one here if I blow it up I can see white red black green same as the 94. Yet this is the 88. is maybe the yellow wire on this go to the black wire and all the others go to their respective colors?

 

Why not use the old distributor?

 

glad he said it, but trying to give the guy what he wanted haha.

 

All the colors are the same except one I say wire the like wires and let the two mismatched ones be friends with each other.
