check for compression, fuel, and spark. a car needs those three things to start.

what got me (3 times actually) during my last project was the timing being off by a few teeth. turned out to be a very expensive 3 mistakes.

 

what u took it to the shop and got it fixed or what..

Check for:

Spark, Timing, Compression, Fuel.

If you have all those, it will at least run. My bet is that chipped ecu of yours.

 

xencoron chipped my ecu its good. my timing is way off an I don't kno how to do it. what's a good way to find out if my crank pulley tdc so I can line up the cam? I have spark and fuel.

Looking at the pictures, the sparkplug wires are wrong. Also, when using an A6 distributor on a Z6 head, you will need to grind out the bolt holes so that you have the extra adjustability to get the ignition timing as close as you can to stock spec. As the distributor sits in the picture, the timing is really off. Converting to OBD1 and using a Z6 distributor and P28 ecu would have been a better option. But, you can still have a decent running car with your set-up, it just needs some adjustments.

 

ok well i got it to start but my timing is still off going to check it more. do i use the y7/y8 cam gear or keep with the z6 cam gear?

 

[QUOTE=Rease3]what u took it to the shop and got it fixed or what..[/QUOTE/]

not the car, the head. i had to rip the head back off and take it to the machine shop... twice. the thrid time it happened i just bought a new head off my friend for 50 bucks and called it a day.

 

ok well i got it to start fixed the timing but now it sound like a sti under full boost..i think thats bad..

 

check your ignition timing should be 16 degrees btdc

 

my dizzy is obd0 dizzy and its in the stock position
