Car STILL won't start need help BADLY
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.

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.

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.

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 .

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 .

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 .
