car wont start, battery has 13 volts, 120psi compression across all 4 cylinders, spark to all 4 plugs, fuel pump is priming itself, replaced the coil...any ideas anyone?....im thinking the ecu...if anyone has a p28 or p08 ecu within 10 miles of 92595, that i could just plug into my car to test, ill give you 5 dollars for driving here and letting me plug your ecu into my car to see if it works

 

its a d16z6 in an 88 crx SI, if that matters...im running the full engine harness from obd1, and the full firewall harness for obd1...no conversion bullshit...just straight obd1 engine and harness running a chipped p28 ecu

 

****Make sure its grounded****

 

all grounds and connections are good...triple checked all of them

 

Are your fuel injectors Clicking and spraying fuel? Fuel pump running just means the pressure is there, if the injectors arent squirting it won't run.

 

When you turn the key you said you here the fuel prime right and then when you try to crank it what does it do.. Does it turn over or no?

 

yes the injectors are clicking open and close, i know because i used the old screwdrive to ear trick, and i pulled the line off of the outlet of the fuel filter and fuel is coming out...i think its down to map sensor, or ecu...i pulled the ecu out and nothing looked fried...im about to go get some new plugs

 

yes, when i crank it it turns over, and battery is fully charged reading 12.7 volts

 

have you checked the main relay (click when the check engine light goes off after you turn the key to run)?

so when i turn the key to run but before cranking it over after the cel goes off the main relay will click?

 

bump...need to get it running tonight

 

main relay is good

 

Are you positive the plug wires are all in the right place?

 

I had this same issue the other day, it would crank and crank and crank and no go. I knew the grounds were good it was getting gas etc etc. I pushed the clutch and gas to the floor and cranked that bitch over and she finally came to life. Dunno just my $0.02, ill tak em back if ya want

yeah plug wires are right

 

In order for a engine to start it needs Fuel, spark, compression. U say u have all 3 now it gets more complicated. I don't think its your ecu because u say u have all 3. so I'm suck, Are u backfiring at all or smell gas?? try spraying starter fluid into the IM and start it then other than that IDUNNO o ya replace your plugs and rotor!

 

bump

 

replaced both of those already

 

timing belt good?

 

120psi thats kinda low

120 psi is very low

I was gonna say, if it isn't turning over then maybe the starter. sorry I can't really help ya out man

 

120 psi is low?...my d15b only had 100 psi

 

timing belt looks brand new

 

bump for answers...did the motor finally just die?
