Did you check all of your grounds? especially the thermostat

 

going over them again today.

 

is your battery charged?

 

I get twelve at the post, and 3 at the blade terminal.

 

Trace the wiring back all the wat to the battery.
Disconnect the starter. What is the voltage then? etc etc

 

umm.. you may have a floating 12 volts on your battery, that doesn't mean you actually have any cranking power. After my car sat for 6 months I had to charge my battery back up before I could even crank my car.

 

Lights are bright, and lights are still bright during crank. I will try a yellow top.

 

samthing happened to me a couple of months ago it was the grounds. i replaced them all with 4gage amp wire it started right up. i have the valve cover grounded,battery and starter.

 

should i hook a groud up to one of the bolts of the starter? And one to the valve cover, and like jsut a random one here and there?

 

Try jumpstarting it with another car.
Does that work?
If so, drive around for 20 minutes or so...
Try to start her up again.

 

ground strap on the tranny. seen this one before

 

Its not the battery. Anyways, the ground i had on it wasn't good enough. It turns over now. Its throwing a code for Crank Angle sensor now. And i don't know if its the dizzy itself, or if its the wiring for DPFI to MPFI. ****. It starts but it runs really really rough..


Any ideas?

 

did you use shielded wire? Yes it does make a difference.

 

shielded wired for which part?

 

-edit-
I have **** in my eyes, and need to learn how to read

The two wires that you needed to add for the MPFI swap. I did mine without it originally and got the cel, redid it when i did the engine swap and everything worked out just fine after that.

 

bling, it runs by the way. And you need to add alot more than two wires. Heh.
