TurboII won't start after running fine...it's not flooded.
Okay so I have a friends TurboII here.
It has been driven around for about a month now since he picked it
up. It's stock, just has a Racing beat exhaust and FCD.
well after letting it sit at my house for about 3 days we go to
drive it and it fires right up no problem. It idles for about a
minute then dies. It fires back up on command and I drie it out from
my garage.
Then it dies a minute later when we get it to the street. It takes a
second to fire up this time but it fires and we drive to the corner
of the block and it dies, and now it won't start anymore.
I pull out the plugs and they are in desperate need of beeing
replaced.
So I put new plugs in and deflood the motor. It sounds as though its
making good enough compression, I try starting it while playing with
the fuel fusible link under the hood to keep it from flooding again.
Well nothing.
I pull the wires and test for spark and there is nothing.
No spark, and this is on a new and fully charged battery also.
What's going on here???
Any help?!
Thanks.

I had a wire in the main harness (near the alternator) go bad. After i redid my engine grounds it started. Check all your ground wires. If the ECU not getting a CAS pulse it wont fire either.
No spark is a sign the ECU isnt seeing a pulse.
