You know, not to be a dick, but your starting more threads than needed. You already have another thread going about the pretty much same problem here.

And you are going to run into the same problem. You have to let others know what you did before you were getting no fuel.

For those who dont know, he had just done a h22a swap into his car, he is getting spark, but no fuel.



Im putting my money on something isnt hooked up right, and the TStat ground is on the wireharness, and it bolts to the head right there. Its pretty much under theVtec soleniod

well what do i do when nobody has answered my question...you know...if i didnt keep asking questions in my threads then they would go strait to the bottom and i wouldnt get anything out of it...it would help by telling my WHY or how the fuel is effected by the ground not established...because i do not see how it would... like is it effecting the relays or something...think of the websites name... HONDA-TECH, if us noobs or begginers have problems, technicians or moderators are supposed to help us out... and not to be a dick you are not a moderator so i do not care if i am making more threads than i need... am i really affecting the world so bad because i need help with my car?

This thread has NO information on your setup or what you have tried to remedy the problem, so it would be very hard to help you in this thread.

If the ECU ground is not connected, the ECU will not start the car....plain and simple. Check out that ground and try to give us more details.

No thermostat ground = ECU does nothing = entire fuel injection system does nothing.

Now, I do not mean to be a smart *** at all, but if you think about that nipple on top of the transmission, what could be going/coming from there? It looks like you have a coolant hose going there, and there is no coolant in the transmission at all.

That nipple is for ventilation of the transmission, there is a ventilated rubber cap that should be on there so dirt doesn't get it.

the hose that you have going into the transmission should be going to the FITV nipple you have circled in black
