Rx72c probably need your help sir FD wont start
Ok, heres my setup...
13B-REW streetport (FD)
850cc/1600cc inj
LT10S w/ X4
GT4094
BUR9EQs for all plugs...
FPR set at 40psi when off...
I have fresh fuel... good spark... good compression (fresh motor)...oil...water...
It really tries to start but I cant get it to continue the cycle to where it powers itself...
I loaded the map you did a while back...

new plugs, yes.
I had it set on 50psi when I first started and lowered it. Ill put it back up and try again.
I have been cycling the motor without plugs every now and then to make sure im not flooding the engine. So thats not the problem. (and the plugs werent wet either)

All checks come out ok, I will recalibrate the TPS.
(actually on the data screen it says tps +05%...)
(screen 30 says my TPScal is at 23%)
I will mess with timing to see if it starts in the morning.

put exactly 200ml in each rotor by removing the upper intake manifold... The first turn over sounded kinda like binding/hard squeeze for the engine to spin...
I have a slow blinking red light that i didnt see before on the ECU when the cars off, it doesnt run/start anymore.

Solid corner seals
Side seals
RA Super Seals
New springs on all of them
new coolant seals
new bearings
etc
I helped build the engine...
I found the idle set screw all the way down.. I was looking at it with a "thats not right" look... Found the throttle actually rotated open to where the set screw was hitting the backside part of the "arm" instead of the top, and someone had calibrated the TPS to correct it. I have had nothing but problems with shops here in Orlando and have started to do it all myself. I keep finding stupid crap as I go...
I will try to start it again tonight after school.
Again thanks for the help.

Alright im getting tired... Which adjustment/setting should i adjust the timing with? TIMtrm? and how much?
What is MIXtrm?
I rechecked spark: good.
I rechecked fuel: good.
The red light blinks after I try to start it, but not before.
CAS problem?

OK! Ive got an RPM error... but that just means ive been trying to crank it too long correct? I just keep resetting it.
I have the CAS indicator on the ECU flashing...

Ok, how exactly can the CAS be installed wrong?
Gap from the timing wheel? (whatever its called)
Or alignment in regards to the metal tabs?
I seem to remember a couple years ago when I had someone trying to dyno it, they did say something about a CAS problem...

You align it with the 2 dots one on the gear,and one on the cas housing.put your pulley on the farther right mark on the pully and drop in the cas aligned.Thats it pretty straight forward hard to mess up.Good luck

Alright felt like messing with her, she started for roughly 30 seconds and idled bad.
This time however the HOM and REF indicators started to show ERROR, so I will check my CAS again. I have a spare somewhere.

talking head
the OP has an FD REW engine with a fixed,, true crank CAS
the only adjust the OP has is in the mix trim
the OP must also realise that FD engines lack a true TDC or even -5 ATDC mark
they have a -20 ATDC mark,, for the trailing
the OEM ECU when being timed is using a 15 degree split timing at idle , so when timing is checked ON THE TRAILING T1 LEAD
then t1 = 20 ATDC,, so L1 must be 5 ATDC
to get around this you get out the protractor and remark the pulley for a TDC
else,, you also make all your low down trailing maps a 15 degree split,, and follow the OEM timing technique
to the OP-- is your ID screen telling you this is an FD configured ECU?
as while both timing systems are essentially 12/1 tooth technique
( 24/2 for the FC CAS )
i believe its possible the inbuilt offset in the ECU may well be different and may be insurmountable
( whilst any other brand of ECU will have aced it being user definable )
at any rate,,remark the pulley OR try timing the engine after ensuring the timing maps have a 15 degree split at low rpms
then lock the timing and use the t1 lead to align the timing mark
PS,, trailing is only going to fire once the engine has actually started
( which is why i suggested the remark of the pulley with a TDC or -5 mark to aid in setup with only the engine cranking and the pump disconnected )
