My car runs on 1 rotor..need help Video

Have searched the forum, but I did't find anything!

To make a long story short.

I've got my engine back from rebuilding for about 2 months ago.

I've installed a singelturbo,kg parts sec. rail with 1680 injectors, original 550 injectors on primary.
HKS Twin Power,magnecore 10mm spark plug wires.Apexi power FC and Apexi AVC-R.

The car started nearly perfect at first startup (- some oilleaks), had it running for about 2 minutes..

Then, after fixing the oilleaks (2 days later) I startet up the car, but it was only running on the front rotor.

So i've checked for spark from the sparkplugs(L2), but it's just a small light.

Tested my sparkplugs on a friends car, it was almost like lighting
So my sparkplugs should be good.

Also tried to change to my old sparplugwires, that i know works fine, but now spark.

Have also tried disconnecting the twinpower, but my car was even more dead without it..

maybe the hks twin power killed one of my coils?

some vids from the startup and running on 1 rotor..






Sorry for the bad english, I'm from Norway..

please don't flame me

You checked the for spark off the leading coil? Did you look at both or swap the front to rear or just the wire to the rear leading?

Trailing 2 and Leading 1 and 2 has spark, but it's very bad..

Trailing 1 seems to be working good..

Could it be the igniter that's bad?

Hey Justin - did you find a solution to your ignition problem. I'm seeing the *exact* same symptoms. Installed rebuilt motor and it ran fine - ran it for about 20 mins. Restarted about an hour later and it's now running on one rotor.

Hi!
I figured out that my problem was't the ignition. It's hard to see if it's bad ignition, because we have wastefire coils..

But I cleaned my injectors, and my car started right up! So I think my ignition was ok, but it did't look any good.
