[fochtup1]

hey, and thanks for any input. i'm putting together a basket case omni glh...got in about ten boxes and looking for some close up pics of the engine compartment of an 86 turbo1 omni glh to refer to while i'm putting back together. mainly sensors and wiring, got the engine back together and dropped in now working on the wire harness.
thanks for any help. justin

You know, it'd help to know what year parts from what car you've got and what you're trying to your car into...

it's am 86 omni glh turbo1, i have parts for all different engines and weeding through all parts and i put in the oringal 2.2t1, three diff throtle bodies and i think i have the right one picked out three diff alts with brackets and harnesses attached to all three, also think i have the right one picked out. i'm just looking for a pic to refer to as i did not take apart and everything was in boxes and not marked anyway so i'm just guessing as i go. if anyone has an 86 omni glh a pic would be a great help. thanks

Go visit a pick your part style junkyard and take notes and pictures.

What do you need a picture of, or advice on, specifically?

I'd be glad to help out, but your request is way too gereral

I think buying a set of shop manuals would be the intelligent thing to do first.
-you can pick them up for 30 - 50 dols a set.

Coming on here to ask everyone to take pictures of EVERYTHING is just plain rude and ignorant, IMHO

i have a chilton man and 2.2-2.5 performance man that came with i'm just looking for a pic of an engine in the car to refer to as i'm just guessing where things go.

Look, I like helping out a fellow TD'er.

Maybe the original post was too vague, considering you had a post-count of '1'.
(lots of times people come on here, ask a bunch of vague questions and then after everyone tries to help them, they wind up posting that it was too hard and they crushed the car)

I think Chilton manuals are absolute garbage

I posted the pics of the alt bracket because alot of times the little piece gets lost.

Introduce yourself in the lounge and ask specific questions in their respective sub-forums.

Best of luck

Just go to junkyard and look for ANY 85-87 TI car engine bay, it's going to look all the same.

this thread was a waist of my time. i was just looking for a picture to refer to as i did not take apart and was given to me in boxes, was hopping to get running to save gas by driving and parking my truck and only using truck to tow boat and in the snow. i cant believe 122 people looked at this thread and not one can load a pic of there engine compartment...not looking to steal your ideas or anything just trying to figure out where everything goes.
thanks alot, justin

WOAH DUDE...

Whats with the attitude? You mentioned having a bunch of different alts, so I posted some alt pics. You can't even see the alt from the top of the motor.
A picture of an engine compartment? Whats that going to do for you?
Show you which way the valve cover goes on? Get real.
I told you What you should do... Look for info in each section.

122 people and no pics? Not a ton of people here are all about running log T-I's.
Those who do seem not to be picture-happy.

Bottom line, not too many people are willing to help someone who won't help themselves.

Lemme guess... your internet doesn't have Google?

first pic on Google:

I'll stop there.

I would post some detailed diagrams from the Factory Service Manuals but you got a Chilton manual, so you should be set.
