ok i have been asking a FEW QUESTIONS THE LAST FEW DAYS TO GET CLOSER TO HAVING MY B16 SWAP INTO MY CRX DONE. so heres what i have done so far and my problem. i have the whole motor in and everything to do with the swap. it was a mpfi swap also. so i have tested the injectors(removed fuel rail and cranked it. fuel shot out of each one nicly. so then i checked spark had spark from every wire with my test plug and all the others still in the motor. i have wires vtec and the knock sensor in. and messed with the tps today. other air sensors are in also. so im stummped if i have fuel and spark. oh and ran a compression test the motor is good. so what could it be. my guess would be the order of the spark or fuel but idk. help me please this car hasent ran for about 5 months and i really need a way to get to work when i get a job and just want to stomp on some people on the street. please help. oh adn checked grounds to. they are good. 2 4 guage wires from chassis to motor/tranny and it cranks just no actuall idling going on. and no signs of it happening soon. thanks

 

Are you sure that the cam timing is on? Did you hook up your ECU connectors? Go over the easy stuff first. Check the plugs @ the dizzy and triple check all your wiring jobs for the MPFI swap. Did you hook up your t-stat ground wire?

Good luck, its prolly simple so dont stress

I'm guessing the cops are onto you and they send swat in at night to *** with your car. Those ******** !

 

yep i checked the ground there. just put my friends ecu on to see if it was that so the plugs are in there good. no codes at all. checked the dizzy plugs it sparks and the pins are all in there really good. i checked all the wiring again today and nothin seems wrong.

 

yeah maybe. now they can get to it easyer its in the street. my dad got his parking spot back. i was hoping it was simple wouldent want to go threw much in the middle of the street in 109 degrees of hot sun.

Look it over close , I'm sure you just missed something or ran it wrong.
It is odd , you have fuel and spark , are you sure you have the plug wires in sequence? and as he said what about the thermostat ground ?

 

yes the ground to the thermostat is good. what could it be. isnt the wiring there to give me fuel and spark and if i have both. it there a opoint in checking it? and thanks for all the help so soon. its great

 

bump for help. anything?

 

do you have any CEL codes? try switching your TPS plug with your MAP plug sometimes while swappin motors you can get them crossed

 

well i noticed those two were the same and one has the other plug right next to it and the tps dont so im pretty sure i got that righ. i dont have an o2 but that shouldent prevent it from starting would it? ind from bottom left clockwise it is 1342 so thats right. i have tried different ways just to see and nothing has happened. anything else. please

 

jump the connector near the right bottom side of your glove box and turn the key to the on position see if you have any codes

 

what? please explain more i have heard of jumping the wires before. but please explain more so i can try this. thanks and isnt there sapposed to be anothe ground for vtec at the ecu. or is that just the oil pressure groung because it is already done

 

you should have ran 4 wires to the ecu ..knock sensor, oil press. switch, vtec solenoid, and o2 sensor.. as for jumping the connector, get on the passenger side floor and look up at the bottom right of your glove box, youll see a 2 wire connector that doesnt plug into anything.. get a wire or a paper clip and jump the two wires together at the plug.. now i think on obd0 cars the l.e.d. on the ecu blinks but it could also be the CEL on the dash turn the key on and count the blinks.. 1 long blink = 10 short blinks =1 if you have any codes you can look them up on here or just post the numbers you get and im sure someone will help you out if not me

 

did you swap the tps wires the two outside ones

 

no was i sapposed to?

 

ok i swapped the wires and still nothing. this sucks anyone have any suggestions

 

Get the motor to TDC and Check all your timing marks, maybe it off...

 

i will try the cel thing then the tdc marks correcting. thanks alot guys

 

ok. i dident know the specific plug by the right hand side of the glove bos. so i tried the blue plug with a think a red and brown wire. please tell me wich one is the real plug i cant tell. i have alot of ac plugs out as well. i removed all the ac/heater eqiupment. thanks

 

you have the right plug, again its at the bottom right of the glove box.. see if you have any codes, if not check your timing, and to the guy that said "switch the two outside wires of the tps" what the hell are you talking about? if you dont have anything informative, dont post anything. you not knowing what your talking about is just goin to confuse anyone else.

 

If you lived a little closer I could help you out....but i don't have the time to drive down to Tuscon right now.

My guess would be your problem lies inside the distributor. The Ignition control module is bad or the coil. Best bet replace the whole dizzy and see if it starts.

Then you can come "stomp" on my saturn

you do not have to do this on OBD-0

just lift the carpet and count the blinks.

 

I could be wrong but on the dizzy from top left to right should be cylinder 3 then 4 bottom left to right should be cylinder 1 then 2.... if im wrong then why does my car run... ha ha

and where in tuscon do you live ill be out there on wednesday... maybe i could help ya out
