car lacks spark... it almost starts up chhh chhhh chhhh but no vrooom...help please maybe its just something simple that we are forgetting...

 

lacks spark....

coilpacks grounded?
power to coil packs (big blue/red in battery area wiring) needs to go to run and start power.

are you getting fuel?

have you checked the CAS to make sure that the timing is right?

Fuel, Compression, Spark..thats all she needs...rememebr to check the little things.

When I started mine for the first time, the CAS connector wasn't on all the way. I forgot to hook up the fuel pump connector, too. You should hear it pressurize when you turn the car to ON.

The S14 FSM from silvia australia has procedure to check the ignitor, coil packs, and other electronics.

also...the ECU connector is VERY finnicky. make sure the 10mm bolt is tightened down all the way!!

 

hoaaaaa enthalpy thanks alot, all we forgot was that blue wire with red stripe, btw do you know where we can hook that up to?? do you know what wire we connect that to??

 

ahaha, hook it right up to the battry! J/K

 

NO..do not hook it to the battery...your coils will be on all the time...

splice it to the big (like 12 or 10 GA) Black/Red on the same plug. that is run/start power.

 

p.s.....it's covered in the heavythrottle wiring diagrams...you know the ones you showed me last night?

 

i hooked it up to the fuel pump fuse in the box, (15a) hows that?? btw i need to set an apointment at secret services to get some tuning done, random simple stuffs you know ill be giving you guys a call thanks to everyone for the help, Ranjo, Shawn, Sean, Mattback, Scott, alex, chris, and many others from getting me a 10mm wrench to serving water lol thanks everyone!!
