Worst Luck Today...
 

well, lets see, i was pulling thechrage lines for my AC out, and the wrench slipped, CRUSHED my finger, (my hace to go get x-rays. well, what i didn't notice, what the wrench pinch cut a bunch of wires on the main feed into the engine bay. i got a few re-soldered, and taped up. so i started the car, and through code 4. so i went back threw and re-checked, taped, and re-re-checked all my joints now. re-started, and no code. so i let the car from for a bit while i got ready for work. come out and still no code, so i'm feeling better. then on the way in, CEL lights up and the car surges a bit. it only sruged once or twice on the way in, and i got it into the parking garage without any trouble. so then i check and i'm throwing 4 AND 9. so, that's TDC and Crank Angle. you think it's safe to make the 12 minute drive home tonight, or do i have to try to re-fix everything in a dark parking garage to get home?

you should be fine to get home, make sure you are using solder paste when u solder them....And put the gun on one side of the wire and the solder on the other side, let it heat up and draw it through, ur probably making a bad connection which is incresing the resistance and causing the Voltages your ECU see's to be off.

thanks for the reply. will do.

it was to cold to solder outside here over the weekend, so i bought a box of butt joints for wires, and a good set of crimpers. drove in this morning without any probs. thanks for the advice. i still need to retape evertything though. didn't want to do that until i know it was good. :)

Yesterday i put a drill bit 5/8" through my finger and had it snap off...my friend/co-worker had to pull it out with a pair of vice-grips...pulled out some meat along with it.
