In a world of fuel injection, new systems stand out, and old ones fade into the shadows...  I have an 88' Bronco II with a 2.9L V6 with fuel injection, and to say the least, it is frustrating.  I have torn it down, and the motor is being rebuilt right now in my garage.  Although I'm not worried about fixing all the wiring until after the motor and tranny are back in it, I need to at least get a direction of where Im gonna go with the wiring.  I put a new distributor, coil, relay, and ignition switch in the truck, not including all the other new parts Ive bought for it.  When I tried starting it before the rebuild, there was no spark, and I couldnt tell if there was any fuel either, because although i could smell it, there was no pressure.  What im asking is if anyone knows how to fix this problem, or tell me where to find new wiring harnesses that actually run to the engine instead of speakers or radio.  Wiring like that doesnt concern me,  I just want it to run, especially because this is my college car, and it has to be done by june 27th at the latest, cuz I start on the 29th. Any suggestions?
