B16 swap in 95 EX wont start.....
Ok I swapped this motor in my teg and it started no problems. Now I swapped everything into the coupe and it cranks but wont start. Its getting fuel and spark but it wont go. It started when I 1st tried it but it was backfiring like crazy, now it wont turn on tho. everythings plugged up right (its 6 plugs I cant really mess that up), and everything I see is plugged in. Im stumped.

I did this same swap in my friend's '95 EX a while back (USDM B16A2 and ran it off the p28). We had trouble with it starting and it turned out that we had forgotten to re-attatch all of the grounds. It even cranked up once for us, but after that it wasn't able to turn over until we connected all of the grounds.

Re: (rewsnaeht)
ok it still wont start, i have the tranny and valve cover ground connected, fuel comesoutof the banjo fitting on the filter i know its getting fuel, its getting spark, engine harness is all plugged up. i have no idea what it can be. when i swapped this motor in the teg it started right up.
EDIT: im an idiot, though i had the wires right but they were out of order.

Re: (rewsnaeht)
very similar problem i had...check to make sure that there is power going to the distributor and also make sure the ECU doesnt have a bent pin...that was my problem. check to see where u r not getting power...just get a bulb and two wires(a hot + ground)and trace it to the source.
