i just put a b18a in and relocated my battery to the trunk. i used 4 guage wire for the power and ground.

My problem is it turns over very slow and wont start? I put new grounds on and it cranked a little faster but not normal. It has spark, when i pulled the plugs out after cranking it the are wet with fuel, and it has compression.

Did it turn over normal before the relocation ?

 

yes with the other motor

 

I doubt the relocation has anything to do with it if you never turned the motor over before the relocation. It sounds more like a motor problem.

 

make sure that your getting good enough spark

How can u tell if it's "good enough".

 

it seems to be a decent spark in every cyclinder

 

i ment like it wasnt a weak or faint looking spark as if there wasnt a good enough ground connection.

 

i got it turning over normal it was a bad battery. But i have spark, fuel, compression and it wont even fire. I just check rechecked the timing belt and it is all on the marks

 

was the car a std or auto before the swap

 

it is 5 speed
