Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Well the engine grenaded and the guy was going scrap it, and I don't have 15k for a pos engine.
and he traded it to me for a bike! lmao I couldn't sell that bike on C-list for 1K.
Better my loved Frankenstein then parted and crushed...
And have you ever traced a line from those oem wiring diagrams?
Not easy.
So any help would be nice... Thanks!
Right on, man. It may not be everyone's particular cup of tea, but I know a fella who has made a living out of Chevy 350 conversions for Jaguars. He doesn't get a lot of love from purists, but guys driving converted cars have nothing but mad respect for him.
Bottom line: put a motor in and drive the wheels off. Because why not!?
Spend $30 and buy the electronic version of the shop manual.
You'll need all of this anyway to complete your project.

Thanks for the link.
That's part one for sure.
I have the online wiring diagrams, but they wrap page to page and I need an education in reading them. Lol. Ive done this to a few vanagons as well but the p wiring is slowed me down.
I was hoping someone had a pin out for the two main plugs at the dme (ecu, ECM what ever).
Again thanks. M
I posted the DME pinout on the other thread. Somehow I never noticed your thread until I searched for it. Here it is for the '98:
