Where in northern Virginia are you located? I'm on my way to MD right now to help DarkAngelKamui get his TII running. PM me, and I might be able to come give you a hand.

 

hey man check your ecu... pull the plug off the pressure sensor (if you have an n/a) put a voltmeter on the brown and white wire, then turn the key to ON and see if you are reading 4.5 - 5.5 volts.... if not then you need a new ecu and you also need to see why your old ecu went bad.... that wire goes to pin 2A on your ecu and it contrrols 5 engine manegment devices (tps, atmospheric pressure sensor, pressure or boost sensor, AFM, and one more i cannot think of the name) if that wire got grounded you can kiss the ecu goodbye... goodluck man

jinx22630, im around mt vernon ft belvoir area, near george washington house about 5 from old town.. pm me i need all the help i could get since this is my primary car. cwsttu where is the plugs for the pressure sensor? but if the ecu is bad how could the car start i dont know this is a weird car in deed..

 

bump any one know where the plugs for the pressure sensor is?

 

the pressure sensor is on the passenger side strut tower...... it has pressure sensor on it or should at least and its a 4 prong plug that goes into it.... i thought the car wouldnt start am i correct? if the ecu is bad several reasons could make the car not start, or start but run like **** it just varies on the situation.. but if the ecu is bad then you are def not getting spark and will never start

 

well the car starts, run shitty and it need atf to give it extra compression everytime i want to start it, im guessin the seals went bad, if i let off the gas she'll die and never start again unless i unflood and atf through the vacumm line. i definately not sure this is a weird car to work on in deed.

 

Try unflooding it,

You need fuel and spark for ignition. you say you put in a new fuel pump. so you are most likly getting fuel. Look to see if you are getting spark. while someone is cranking the engine (with EGI fuse out so u dont flood the engine) lift up one of the spark wires from the leading coil only til you see or hear a sparks, do that on all the wires on both coils packs.

there is a member on TeamFC3S that has the EXACT same problem. I have told him to do many things. he hasnt done a compression check yet. But guess one of the rotors lost some compression.

Justin

 

that member on teamfc3s is me dude.. im notyet-there. I know for the fact the car is not flooded before each time i put atf in to the engine she' fire right up. so im guessin either something is wrong electronicly or the motor just die or something

 

o hey dude! lol. ok well you know what i have said on the other forum then. lol. I dont know what exactly it could be.

Justin

 

yea me either this car have me beat.

 

hmm could my engine be loosing it's seals?

 

cwsttu i just did a voltage test on the pressure sensor on the br/wh wire and it's showed 5.02 v. so im guessing the sensors are ok..

 

do compression check...
