I believe the other is the EFI , they are right next to each other, maybe you arent pulling the right fuse, did you at least pull the one thats 2nd in? I forget which is which, im sorry, lol.



Anyhow, here is that pic, kinda blurry, its hard to take a pic looking up from the floor, but as you can see, one side of the harness is yellow, and one side is white, you wont have those red wire ties, I use red so I know which ones I put there should I ever have to go back to stock wiring. This is to the right of the steering column, a little above it.

pull both of them out, they are right next to each other, unflood the car for a while with the spark plugs and the fuses out. Put both fuses back in and use the plug under the dash like I said. remember if it doesnt start right away, pull the harness apart. Try starting it, and when it does fire up only then keep the harness plugged in.

go back and read what I posed earlier, if there is still a question, let me know. Basically after you pull the spark plugs and the fuses and crank it to get fuel out of it, put the fuses back in and try to start the car, if it doesnt start RIGHT away, reach under the dash, seperate that harness I took a pic of for you, and try to start the car, when it finally starts plug the harness back in, you can plug the harness in for a second here and there to give it some fuel, but dont let it flood.

By the way, I think the fuse you should be pulling is second in, not the one on the edge, but I could be wrong, its been so long since I flooded one out.
