my 00 si won't start, please help!
I have a fully built b16a in my civic. Everything is pluged up and it won't crank over. The starter has juice, fuel pump is working, all grounds are connectedand a brand new battery in there. When i turn the key the pump primes but won't crank. All relays and fuses are fine. It has a p28 ecu in it tuned my jeff evans. Any help would be great, thanks!

If the motor will not crank, it is usually a problem with the starter. If that is fine, check the connections at the battery terminals.

take a jumper cable and jump the tranny to the chassis. I had the same problem and somehow the tranny ground failed. If it starts up once you ground the tranny with a jumper cable, then wire up a new tranny ground and you are good to go.

i think we tried that we took a ground wire and tried to hot wire the starter. When we did that the starter cranked but real slow like it sounded dead.

1. i agree check the ground.
2. If the injectors have been sitting for a while try tapping them with a wrench while someone cranks the ignition.
3. check your timing

Make sure the wire to the starters' actuator is hooked up. I think it is a black wire with a white stripe. Connects with a spade connector.

Dude, it's not even cranking. What good is screwing with the fuel and timing if it won't even crank? Fix the starter.

It cranked, it was bondo on the trans ground. I hit a crub last year and the body shop bondoed there, duh! Were gonna set the timing later today and hope it goes well.
