Default ls vtec no start

hey guys first post on here, and its an ugly one, as thread states my engine cranks and crank but no start, it has fuel, spark, timing is good, and good compression. I started with cleaning up a few grounds but still no dice. Everytime after cranking it over id pull the plugs and check and they were soaked with gas. If anyone has had a similar problem itd be awsome to get some info. Thanks guys

Are your valves adjusted correctly? Also what engine management and so forth?

if your plugs are soaked with gas stop turning the key over! if you wash down your cylinders in gas it will eat your bearing and say good by to your motor. pull the fuse for your injectors and make sure your getting spark. make sure your timing is correct. What size injectors are in this. are you doing the tuning. must distinguish if this is a mechanical problem or a tuning issue. please post the Crome map your are using aswell.

Also, do you know what tune you have on the chrome ? for what injectors. Im assuming you have stock 240cc correct ? and running stock fuel pressure ? So im assuming nothing has been changed in the tune for smaller injectors.

But if the inverse is true, and you have bigger injectors than what the tune has ( aka you have 310cc or something bigger and the tune is for 240cc's then you're adding too much fuel ).

First as stated above. Pull the injector fuse, crank over a few times and install new plugs. Give it a try and see what happens then.

there stock injectors and its tuned to 240cc, it was just recently running now its not. i think it may need a new cap + wires not possitive but i have a feeling im not getting enough spark.

was the motor running before this happened? do you smell a burnt smell in the car?? my ecu blew out one morning when i stared up my car to go to school.. it cut on for 2 secs.. i heard a little pop and car died.. tried crankin the motor.. it turned over a buncha times but didnt start. checked all the fuses in the car in denial .. hoping it wasnt the ecu. pulled it out and the 35w resistor blew a big HOLE in the board.. tried fixing it.. but it blew again.. ANYWAYS.. check the ecu

Did you get it to start ?

If you can try to borrow a working distributor from a freind or anyone and see if it works.
