Hey whats up yall, so i recently purchased a JDM 95 H22 and sent it, and my car off to the shop. The guys at the shop exhanged a few jdm parts for the usdm parts, installed a new clutch, and also a new timing belt. My question is they are currentlly trying to get the engine to run it has trouble starting, and also stay running. I personally havnt had time to check it out but from what i understand its running rough...any ideas on the problems/solutions to this problem.


thanks yall

bump

 

Timing is off
Bad fuel
Clogged injectors
Dirty air filter
Fouled plugs
Bad plug wires
Dirty distibuter cap
Broke rotor button
Ecu unplugged
Wrong ecu
Bad coil
Bad fuel pump
Faulty wiring
Blown fuses
ect.

Dude, there are so many variables and you just didn't give us enough information to make a reasonable diagnoses, if you gave your car to a machanic to do the swap, I hope he is knowledgable enough to get it running, so stop worrying about it. Why did you get the swap anyway?

 

What did they do about the obd2 oil pump/ obd1 oil pump?

 

not sure about the oil pump ill have 2 ask him, i got the motor due to the old one blowing from the block eating the oil after a week since the oil change. yea sorry dont know much about whats been changed but i do know hes still using the usdm ecu/obd2 and has changed quite a bit of the exterior parts of the motor. he said that the car starts fine now but....when he hits the accelorator instead of it reving the car it dose the opposite and retards the fuel. anyways ill get more info, incase he dosent get it started in time.

OBTW i do have alot of respect for this mechanic i just figured i try making his job easier by getting some outside opinion..

thanks anyways yall and ill keep you posted on the info.

 

so i got my car back the other day, turns out that the balance shaft was off a tad and was causing the problem, anyways just wanted 2 thank every1 for the help/advice and hopefully help anyone else that may have the same problem.

happy holidays ppl
