my D16Y8 will not start. it turns over but is not firing. i believe it is my ignition causig this; more specifically my spark plugs. my car was running rich before ruining spark plugs and it was throwing a code for the map sensor so i replaced it. after doing that, i replaced the spark plugs while i replaced the map sensor. after trying to start the car, the spark plugs are black and wet with fuel. what is causing this problem?

 

Do you have spark?

 

probably bad map sensor again.

i don't know why, but did you look into the FPR? what about your o2 sensor?

 

i had a bad map sensor on my 05 motor, with less than 20k miles.

 

replace your spark plugs and it should start. I had same exact problem on my ls vtec turbo, it wouldnt start because i was running very rich. Replaced the plugs retuned and it ran like champ. I had cracked downpipe which was causing me to run very rich

 

i do have a cracked exhaust manifold...header is on the way. map sensor is brand new. ill try to replace the spark plugs in the morning since thats the only thing i can think of right now or actually check the spark first. i need this to run since its my dd...hopefully it works. wish me luck.
