I just recently finish a swap and i got power to the car but the engine won't start. When i turn the key to the right, it wants to start but doesn't start all the way. What's wrong?

 

your going to need more info than that,have you double checked all wiring? are you getting fuel and spark? can you hear the fuel pump prime? how many grounds do you have/were and are thy making good contact? you need to give more info.

 

Hey my 90 crx won't start but i have power though. I heard the gas going in, but it's not starting. The pulleys move but it's slow. It wants to start but isn't going to. Put new oil,new oil filter, new tranmission fluid, new radiator. I have the power wire from the fuse box bolted on the starter then back to the positive of the Battery. The negative wire is running to the engine's chassis and back to the negative battery terminal. The dizzy makes a click when i try to start it. It's an si dizzy. What could be wrong!?

 

what motor/ecu do you have? what was the model of the crx originally? did you check the amount of oil you have in your car? too much will cause your car to not start up easily...what about the battery? have you double checked your cap and rotor as well? these are very basic things, and many people tend to forget these steps...i know i have...

 

It's a Zc motor. I'm using a Si ecu pm6. The model of the crx is a 90 hf. I put 3 and half bottle of motor oil. And put 1 bottle and a half of tranny fluid. Check the spark plugs, nothing wrong.

 

bumb cause SAME **** is happening to me with the same car same motor!

 

I was told it could be the ground wires and not enough power wires to the tranny!? confusion in the state of mind. And i have a question! on the back of the engine, below the manifold. there's this spot where it looks like this. it has 3 pins where 3 wires are suppose to be put in.


Is it plug like that? BLACk / Yellow / Black?

 

Add another half a quart to the motor first of all.

Second, are you getting spark?
