Default Battery being drained

The car is a 89 crx dx with a 92 ls swap.


I fixed my no spark problem, but now when the car cranks it's killing the battery. If the cd player is on before i try and start the car it will shut the cd player off until I'm done trying to crank it. When I would spray some starter fluid in the tb it would try and start but would just go back to cranking when I stopped spraying.

Any ideas on what could be the problem? TIA

It's not that I'm not getting fuel. I think that I'm not getting enough fuel, if that's possible. The fuel line where it is connected to the fuel rail was almost completely pinched off. I swapped out the fuel rail for a golden eagle one, but now I have a leaky #4 fuel injector. Going to try and fix that problem today.

sounds like you have a fuel problem. If you have an aftermarket fuel rail, it probably has a whole to add a fuel pressure gauge. It would not be a bad idea to do that just to make sure you have the right pressure.

Since your car was a DX, i would double check that all the injectors are wired correctly, to be on the safe side. You might have the right pressure, but the injectors are not getting the signal to spray.

The wiring was done by rywire.com. All of the injectors are spraying. Unfortunately I don't have enough money to pick up a fuel gauge but I'll be picking one up soon. Thanks for the input. Keep them coming.
