Alright, I put an Ultimate fuel system in, new Fluidyne Radiator, and put it back together now car won't start. Got new battery, new plugs, plug wires, new ignitor, and I tried deflooding engine but it's not flooded. I can't get the car started and i've tried it for a week now. I'm deff getting fuel, my fuel pressure is set at 34psi.

 

Are you getting spark?

 

No. I can't figure out why.

 

Any help? I'm dieing to get it started ;-(

 

Take the alternator out and get it tested. Test the coils and the wires according to the FSM. You'll need a ohmmeter to test the coils and wires. Good luck

 

My coils are good, they've been tested already. Same with the plug wires. Alternator keeps the battery charged, I'm not having those problems.

 

Make sure the square plug that's on the coil harness is plugged in all the way to the battery harness. Also check the crank angle sensors.

 

How are you checking for spark? You stated a new ignitor was installed, why? Was the old one not working? If the ignitor is the only ignition component you replaced, I would start there.

 

I would double check the installation of your fuel system. Check your primaries. How are you testing for spark? You said you tested the coils, but that is just one component for getting spark.

 

Old ignitor was bad, I had it tested.

 

I mean my mechanic installed the fuel system, so it must be right.

 

have you actually held a connected spark plug to a ground on the car to see if you are getting spark. This procedure is explained in the FSM

 

Yes I have. But that was before I replaced the ignitor. I'm about to test the plug again in a bit to see if it's firing yet with the new ignitor. Other than that I'm out of ideas and I want it running badly

 

need help lol...

 

Did you just put in the PFC and then it will not start ? If YES then put the stock ECU in and see if it will start .If it does run on the stock and not the PFC then check the air gap between the ing sensors and the trigger wheel .The PFC will not read the pulses if the gap is to wide and the stock ECU will .If this is your problem then you owe me a hamburger .

 

Alright cool man I'll try that.

 

Ok, that didn't work...thanks thoe. Any others?

 

No spark ,correct, Check the fuses again then check the connectors to the ing harness and clean under the ground wires .Check the gray connectors on the drivers side near the fuse box and up from the battery .See if the power wire in one of the connector is puting out voltage to the ingnitor unit .

 

Alright I'll try that.

 

All the gray connectors are hooked up, ground wires are fine...New ignitor is on. I tried grounded a plug again, and out of three 8 sec cranks, I only got ONE spark. Should I try another plug wire and see if it sparks more that the one I tried or could it be something else...I'm really running out of ideas =\

 

Borrow another PFC and try it out,or put the stock one back in to see if the spark returns .Pull all the plugs and ground the shells to check for spark on all of them as you change the ECUs .

 

make sure you didnt mix up the fuel return lines to the carbon canister line.

 

I tried the stock ECU, same problems.

 

I never messed with the carbon canister line so that should be right.

 

Did you happen to switch the primary injector connectors with the secondary injectors ? These connectors will swap. Firing the primary wiring into the secondary injectors will flood you out - instantly
