i just finished doing a auto-manual swap and a d16y8-b16a2 swap.i did all the wiring on the inside of the car. there are a few extra blk plugs on the passenger side engine bay but i think it was bc of the a/t. today i tried to start it up and it just kept making a popping noise and smoking from cylinder 4 (header wasnt tightened all the way). then i guess i blew my coil bc i check the plug wires for spark and its not sending anything from the dizzy. what could be my problem? heres my setup
b16a2
obd1 dizzy (spliced and soldered blk/yellow wire)
obd1 ecu
obd2 alt
obd2 a/t engine harness

((it turns over))

 

did you check your firing order?

 

i was just beginning to thing my firing order was wrong. i went by the haynes manual. it goes from 1-4 ina round order starting from the bottom left going counter clockwise? but could a wrong firing order prevent spark?

 

 

thats wierd. alot of forums ive read said that the cylinder order is 1342.i know i have the dizzy order right. last night before i went to sleep i tried to fire it up. it sounded like it was weak and after 2 cylinders the lights would just go out and i would hear a ticking noise (sounded like a spark)

 

ttt

i wish i have known this firing order at the first place.i was so mad at myself

 

Sounds like you ran the battery dead from cranking it too much. Charge the battery, then try again later after you have made sure the firing order is right.
