My situation: Just got done swaping my engine in my 1995 240 se and i need help BAD. i have all my connections hooked up except one where i can not find the other end. The engine starts up okay but after a while my air bag light will flash and and my radio cut off and my lights dim and sometimes cut off too. if i keep it going like this my engine will bog then stall. If i try to start it back up it usually wont start. im think that my problem is my alternator but im not sure i need some help guys anything will be great. another thing is when i start to drive it usually wont go over 3,000 rpm.

Thanks alot,Zach

Nope just a new KA, im in the process of rebuilding my other KA and preping for KA-T (the reason i swaped in the first place is because in the older KA i spun a rod bearing.

I believe the Alt. is hooked up correctly i will check though (whats all supposed to be hooked up to it?0

Thanks,Zach

check your bulk connectors near the battery are they all connected? also check all your fuses.
