I did the z6 engine swap, the mechanic took the long way though and change all the wiring, i have the z6 ecu, dist, ect. He tells me the engine is cranking but it's not turning over. Anybody know what could be the problem

 

he using everything obd1?

 

Im having the same problem if he is using obd-1. I have a 92 LS in a crx...car wont start either, and im pretty sure it has somthing to do with my injectors not squirting gas....

 

i have a 95 d15 in my 89 civic hatch and it is not getting fuel from the injectors. yet the distributor is firing the plugs. It will start by squirting gas in the intake if you just want to hear it run for a sec or two i really don't understand why the injectors won't fire.

 

Did you guys all pull the injector resistor box out of your cars? obd1 injectors run at a higher voltage and if the resistor box is still conected, they won't get enough power to fire.

 

my intake and injectors are out of a 91 honda civic si.

 

non obd injectors are a peak and hold type injector while obd1 injectors are saturated. If running a obd1 ecu then you must use the obd1 injectors without a resistor box.

 

I'm gonna let my mechanic know, thanks for the help

 

first I tried the obd-1 injectors without the resistor box, didnt work...then I tried the obd-0 injectors with the resistor box, and still didnt work..

 

Are you guys using a 88-91 distributor with your 88-91 ecu if so it will work unless you dist. is messed up. the distributor in the control the ground side of the injectors and that is what makes them fire. if they are hot on one side and the other side has nothing it is the dist. if it is the resistor box the hot side will not be hot. if you are using an 92-95 ecu you must use a 92-95 distributor. i just did a swap from a 94 si dist. to a 89 si dist. and it all worked.

 

to be honest, hearing all these posts about swap electrical problems like this, kind of scare me away from wanting to do any kind of swap such as b16a, or z6 head mini me, cause it seems like people always end up having trouble,............and i might be better off keeping things stock with my d16a6, .....................unless anybody else can convince me, lol
