solid cel, crank and no start, no codes, ecu is good. wtf?
Hey dudes, got a huge issue here. Trying to simplify, bought integra with a dying rod bearing, and I finally did a full rebuild here. Just finished yesterday putting it together, and it had crank but no start. There was fuel going to the rail, but no spark to cylinder 1. After troubleshooting, saw that there was power going to the distributor. I replaced entire distributor with one from my single cam (I know, but I wanted to diagnose without throwing cash out the window), which is my dd and has driven before, and again, no spark. Wtf?
I was stumped, had my buddy come up. He tried pulling the code with a scan tool, couldnt connect the tool said said. I even tried using the blue jumper code checker and the cel would not blink. Just stay solid. Somehow after him messing around for a while, it started! He said he had no idea what happened, it just magically got spark. I was excited, let it run for about 25 minutes just to set in, and shut it off. Next time I went to start, same issue. Again, no spark. Have 2 ecus here, both good for sure. One is an auto which should throw a code for that alone, but nothing. Wont even blink. Whats my issue? Main relay is recently replaced also. Checked major fuses. Im thinking wiring, but im clueless at anything wiring. Any help is greatly appreciated
