i have a sohc z6 that was smoking slightly so i decided to take the head and have the valve seals replaced.
everything has been reassembled (timing belt/waterpump/ headgasket replaced also ) ive dont this a few times and mechanical timing is correct
im getting fuel/spark... but the engine will not crank/ all of my fuses are still good and the fuel pump still works fine
when i turn the key for some reason the ground to the transmisson sparks... ive never seeen this b4
any advice will be greatly accepted this is is also my dd so i need it operational
-thnx

 

any one?...

 

check your grounds

 

all connected...

 

did you put the dizzy in 180 degrees off? it is possible.

 

tried that and i broke the key that inserts inthe cam and had to replace it

 

sounds like a loose/painted ground wire to me. the ground wouldnt spark unless it wasnt conductiong properly, take it off and clean it, then put it back on. both sides of it.

 

the only ground ive taken off was the one connected to the power steering bracket. and it was the grnd connected to the transmission the was sparking...

 

ttt

 

im going to check the timing one more time and if thats still correct im going to try the icm maybe thats the problem ive talked to a few friends. is it possible to have the timing 180 degrees out?...bc ist starting but not compression is building
