2JZGTE swap. Car starts, dies in 2-3 seconds
Anyone have any ideas whats happening? Its an Aristo 2JZGTE with full USDM conversion, into my SC300. OBD1 SC300, 95 USDM Wiring harness, 95 TT ECU. The car will start and die everytime in the same 2.5-3 seconds, no difference in time when it dies.
One person suggested fuel pump, but i dont understand why, I hear the pump turning on at full blast. However this is the guy who wired my car, and I probably trust him the most.
One person said it was a incorectly wired MAF, because he had the same 2-3 second problem. Im wondering if the MAF has to be installed a certain way.. I currently have it installed with the MAF plug facing the bottom of the car, will it matter if i turn the MAF sensor 180 degrees and have the plug visible from the top?
Also.. I dont have the downpipe hooked up yet, so one o2 sensor is just hanging, but that wouldnt cause a shut down would it?

You can try asking this in www.supraforums.com as there are lot's of members with 2JZ-GTE SC300 there. You'll get better response there. Good luck.

As soon as I read the title I was thinking Fuel pump, now hearing your case I'm leaning more towards the MAF. I don't think the 02 sensor would kill your car. Let us know what it is.
