Changed plugs and wires, check engine light on now
Think I may have figured it out. I disconnected my battery to reset the ECU. Then I got a Code 02: ECU has been reset. Disconnected the OBD, waited 5 seconds, and plugged it back in. Now the Check Engine light is off, and can this be? No Code on the OBD?
Unlike OBDII that has to be reset by a scan tool, I think you can clear OBD1 by just resetting everything the way you did. There's probably a more elegant way, but sometimes brute force works just fine. Not sure if OBD1 codes latch in or self restore, could have been an intermittent problem that came and went, your cleaning may have helped, keep an eye on it and if it's a real problem, it'll be back -
As the title says. I installed Champion Copper plugs and OmniSpark 7mm wires. Now when I start the Disco, the check engine light stays on, the tachometer needle doesn't move, and there is a rich fuel smell. I didn't have any of these issues prior to doing the work. Ok maybe I had a slight fuel smell before, but it seems much stronger now. Any suggestions?
