Bump... Still no luck. I replaced the fuel rail and injectors and Im getting spark to all 4 plugs. When I turn the key, the lights in the gauge cluster light up like they are supposed to. But the CEL stays on. I've tried to use the paper-clip/wire trick to get the codes but the CEL just...

OK, I got the fuel rail pulled off with the injectors... Did a spray test and when I cranked her over only the injector at Cyl. 1 was spraying fuel (a weak, half-a$$ spray). Did I do the test right? If so, Im thinking its either bad/dirty injectors or a bad fuel pump. How can I test the fuel pump?

Everything on my car is OBD1, engine, ECU, dizzy. Everything. As for the timing... I took the timing belt off, and re-adjusted the cams. Put cyl 1 to TDC and lined up all the TDC marks as well as the arrows on the cam gears.

Firing order is correct. Timing has been fixed. Main relay replaced. Still no start.

Ok, dizzy and ecu are both OBD1. Everything on the car is OBD1. I think '92eg hatch' might have something here.... My timing is out of whack so I'll be fixing that today. Everthing else is working. Ive got spark, fuel pump is working, sensors are plugged in and accounted for. I think it might be...

Before I flipped it, I put cyl 4 to TDC. Then took the cover off the dizzy and the metal piece was pointing to #1 (instead of #4, where it should be because I put #4 at TDC). I followed instructions in the manual on how to do it. Did I mess it up even more? I just found that my timing is off and...

No, because it was off by 180 degrees before, so flipping it would correct the firing order. How do I tell an OBD1 dizzy from an OBD2 dizzy?

I checked the dizzy and it was spun off 180 degrees, I fixed that and still no start. All four plugs sparked when I pulled them out of the cylinders and cranked the engine. What does a PCV valve look like?

I checked all over the engine and bay for grounds with a voltmeter. Grounds are good. Fuel pump comes on and sounds normal when I turn the key to the second turn. Smells like gas after that. I know Its getting gas. Spark plugs were all checked and have decent looking spark on them. Good, fresh...

Anyone?

its obd1, B18B1. I talked with the previous owner who had the vtec engine in. For the vtec swap (which he did) he changed out three wires going to the ECU. Because the car was wired for vtec.... He said... "you will have to unpin it at the ecu plugs. then put the 3 wires that are loose at the...

what am i looking for? is there any way to test those?

i believe obd2 started in 1996

A bit of history first... 92 hatch vx used to have a b16(VTEC!) in it. Ecu and engine were removed after the block had a hole blown in it. The wiring wasn't touched. Now I have the car... put a 94 LS into her with GSR manual tranny and LS ecu. Alt, battery, and starter all work fine. Tried...

Im down just one hose, after that I can start this thing up for the first time in over a year and a half. So... is there a water jacket in the intake manifold? Ive got an open hose attachment on the block and another on the intake manny, I just want to make sure they go together. I would hate to...
