Igniton Swap
Posted: April 6th, 2013, 9:05 pm
So after reading about Silver's Viper coil swap I have been intrigued to do the same...However I have just run into my first major set back. I have 97 cherokee with a 99 motor. Im wanting to swap to the viper setup.
Now so far every thread I have been able to locate is inconclusive. I need to know EXACTLY what needs to be done to make this work...from my understanding the cam sensor should plug into the harness where the distributor was hooked. Now do I need to run a whole new set of wires from the ecu for the coil pack?
I have the 00+ ecu, the 00+ cam sensor, the viper coil and wires, and access to a 00+ wiring harness. HOWEVER I do NOT want to swap the whole engine harness. especially if I can avoid it. the biggest issue with that, besides the work, is that the injectors and other plugs will be different.
