Well im in the final stages of starting. There are a couple of issues I have to get worked out. 1 no oil pressure, it wont build any for the life of it. It has been cranked and cranked nothing not a drop. There is about 5 quarts in the engine without a sign of it in the oil pressure guage or in any of the lines i can disconnect. Problem number 2 no spark, no fuel. I have already checked my grounds, checked connuity through all of the wires on the harness I made. checked and re checked my pinout I used. There is fuel to the rail but nothing past the injectors. So now im stuck to what would make neither work (plugs or injectors) Im using the resistor box with my rc550s, they are the same resistance as my obd0 injectors. The ecu seems to be gettting power, I have power at the terminals of the msd coil. I have tried with both my uberdata ecu and my other obd1 ecu. If anyone has any ideas AT ALL, please post them or hit me up. Oh also im using an msd 6a for ign. Should I be getting a tach signal during cranking(such as the needle moving around) it moves once and thats it. Oh also it was converted from dpfi-mpfi using hasports harness. The dizzy was changed over as well using a conversion chart.

 

I could really use some opinions.

 

Its getting spark and no fuel, only one code and thats ELD. It starts for a few seconds on starter fluid, but still isnt building oil pressure.... Anyone?

 

What harness are you using in the car.. and Dizzy.. about the oil problem sounds like a bad oil pump. sorry for the bad news

 

oil pump is a brand new type R from acura. wiring harness is a hasport dpfi to mpfi conversion, with a obd0-obd1 jumper, dizzy converted form obd0 wiring to obd2

 

did you eliminate the resistor box

 

There is a good chance that your distributor wiring is incorrect. Who's conversion chart did you use for the distributor wiring? If you can do a pinout and continuity test from the OBD1 distributor to the pin location on the ecu, we can figure out your problem more than likely..

 

The car fires and will run on starter fuid, so that means no fuel, so im assuming the dizzy wiring is correct. And no i didnt eliminate the resistor box because im using low ohm injectors, 2.6 i believe and the obd1s are 11.5 or so, so I need to keep the resistor box. Ive tried two diff sets of injectors, 3 ecu's and 2 resitor boxes. It has to be in my conversion harness. This is the dizzy conversion I used Function --OBD0 --OBD1
CYPP --Blue/Green --Orange
CYPG --Blue/Yellow --White
TDCP --Orange/Blue --Orange/Blue
TDCG --White/Blue --White/Blue
CKPP --Orange --Blue/Green
CKPG --White --Blue/Yellow
ICM --Large White --Yellow/Green
IGN Out --Black/Yellow --Black/Yellow
IGN Out --Blue -- Blue
and the plugs are getting spark now. Something just isnt right in my harness, used the pinouts for obd1 and obd0 and then checked on someones site to make sure what I assumed was correct, I am getting power through all of my connections. Throwing an eld code though, and never did before the current engine swap.

This is how my jumper harness is ran obd1-obd0

unplugged the obd1 dizzy and switched the wiring back to obd0 along with obd stock injectors and resistor box, still no fuel past the rail. Im lost, and really confused, all grounds are stock and intact.
