Default My Baby finally started STD with OBD1 swap Fully Running Pictures etc..

My car does not want to start!!!
The car looks like it wants to start badly but it cant!~~

It’s giving code 41 I know the wiring is right because its only giving code 41

I have not hooked up one Sensor that is the Sensor on the Header I just put the header top peace on.. I didn't put the part where the sensor is the bottom piping..

I ordered a new Distributor.. What else can be the problem?

I have a SIR II Swap cable tranny YS1 on an EF 91 DX!!!


edit: got my new distributor fixed the firing order and ground and the car started up fine!!! thanks to VegasEK for doing my wiring. check out the pictures any questions let me know..

I have a question about people with STD 91 hatch how much these babys weight?
are they much lighter then DX and Si I heard they are but...

thanks for your help!!!!

my car ran poorly with a bad O2 sensor, i think you should wire up that O2 sensor and see if it starts! what ecu, and distributor are you using?

Hello,

I am using a PR3 OBD1 ECU.
Distributor is TD44-U.

will the O2 sensor prevent the car from starting..?

ok, the O2 won't keep the car from starting, but from running right. check to see that your spark plug wires are in the correct place, 1-3-4-2 from lower left to lower right going clockwise! make sure that you're distributor is not 180 degrees off, make sure the key goes in the right spot on the exhaust cam! the other thing i can think off is, to check if you switched the plugs from the map, and tps sensor. if those are switched, the car won't start! good luck! also, check the coil on that distributor!
