I finished everything on the car today, full teg interior & dash, GSR suspension, got the teg exhaust on, got all the fenders and **** on, got it off jackstands finally, and the damn b16a still wont start. its pissing me off so much, it just cranks and crank. I WANT TO DRIVE MY CAR!!!

Do you have spark? Test with OHM meter.
Put the key to the on position for a few seconds, remove key, do again. This will build fuel pressure. Try again, if it does not start, remove spark plugs and check for fuel from the injectors. Are the spark plugs soaked, dry them! Are your injectors properly wired. Be patient, you will get it running. Make sure everything is grounded, post pics of the engine bay if you want, I will look it over.

i put this motor in my teg so i know what im doin, everythings connected, all grounds are connected, its gettin fuel, it WAS gettin spark earliar (not sure about now, i have a dead battery). my plugs are really black lookin tho. i dont know what else to look for. as soon as i get a friend to come over ill see if it gets spark its just near impossible by yourself.

Make sure you still have spark. And check and recheck your plug wires. Many guys have forgotten that cylinder 1 is closest to crank, not to dizzy. Check everything again!

make sure all the correct fuses are in to run. both in the engine bay and under the dash. my problem was one of my fuses under the dash was blown and the car would not start, but it would crank all day long.

Yup, give it a try, let us know.

EDIT: ****, I just thought over in my head, it could be 1,3,4,2 or 1,3,2,4 clockwise. 1,3,4,2 does actually sound right. My above statment might be wrong. Either way, double check or give both settings a try.

I think we may have found your problem. Don't you need a Dizzy from a VTEC car for a VTEC motor or am I completely retarted?

no. i ran this setup for months in the teg. a distributor is a distributor. it doesnt have MaDvTeCy0

The teg was an LS correct?? I know in D series motors you have to use a VTEC distributor on a VTEC head. Somebody with a little more information than me help out here. I know jack crap about swaps.

E-Rok

i ran this b16a in my LS with the LS distributor. the only difference between them is the mounting holes.

Then I retract my previous statement. Looks like I am just retarted.

Make sure you didn't plug your TPS into your map sensor and vice versa...... they have the same plug and will allow you to crank the car over, but it loads to much fuel......... gl

E-Rok

nah i didnt mix them up, the TPS wont reach my map with this harness plus i didnt disconnect either when doing the swap. also to whoever said their plug wire order on the b18c is wrong because i tried that and the wires wont even stretch that far. well im waiting for a friend with a jumper to see if it starts.

oneslodx

sorry i donno wat to say thats how they are on mine.

i think you may be confusing your #4 cyl with #1 or somethin cuz the orders thw same on all these motors.


EDIT: its definately 3,4 up top and 1, 2 on bottom, heres a pic. i think you got confused.

976

Yeah, you're right, my bad. It is 1,3,4,2 going clock wise...

egturbo

recharge ur battery it might be that.. thats what happen to me i charged up the battery and it started hope that helps
