I am in the process of wiring my 3.8 into my hilux and I am having trouble wiring it up. I have all the engine harness plugged in but I still haven't got the relays and stuff sorted. First of all, What relays would I need for the car to run and drive right? The ones I have are:
Fuel Pump
Warning lamp
EFI
Start
I am having trouble working out where the two purple and white wires from the EFI and the Start relays terminate. It has a 2 pin plug, the other being a brown wire, But I am not sure where that comes from.
Also, What powers the motor to start up, as in where is the ignition source? Can I use my old start solenoid?
