The car started once after I unplugged all injector connections. It ran for about 20 seconds with out the plugs in. While it was running I inserted the plugs back in and the car ran for about 10 minutes at idle. While it was running I started adjusting the idle screw and the the car died. It has not come back on since. All this happen today at 1200. I am just walking inside the house trying to fix this problem. Damn I missed the 240 meet.

CLIFF NOTES:

GOT: Spark, Fuel, and distributor/timing is set according to the TECH write up.

HELP!!!!!!!!

Tell that dude to pop over here and we'll discuss and solve his problem for him. I'm not gonna sign up just to reply over there. I need to talk with him to ask him questions...the post doesn't make any sense to me.

Give the link to Nico and tell him we can help.

Rotor is probably off one tooth. He needs to get a timing gun. OTher then that maybe he has his firing order backwards or 2 flip-flopped.What does he have for plugs? He needs to open the ecu and make sure the chips are pushed in all the way... Sometimes in shipping they wiggle loose...

Alright....I made i here.

What else can I check?

Got spark,fuel, and timing set to oem specs. The compresssion is perfect all across and the engine ran perfect on my 95. I swapped over engines from my 97 to this 95. I didn't change anything but engines. I swapped over my intake mani/ turbo set-up.

Could the TPS not let the car start?

are you sure the timing is not 180 degrees out? I am in hampton, Babied 240 on Drag. Also make sure your wires are all correct on the distributor.

Do this for me. Pull all the spark plugs, clean them off because I have strong feeling they ar now fowled up. Pull the fuel pump fuse. With the pump disabled and the plugs out, crank the motor. Prior to cranking, place a towel over the plugs, so fuel doesn't spray anywhere and cause a fire.

This will allow the compression to force out any fuel that is sitting inside the cylinder. Put the plugs back in, enable the fuel pump and try to start her up. Make sure the IACV screw is backed out, allowing plenty of air into the motor.

The car should start with the TPS and MAF disconnected, so I don't see those being a problem. It will however, really mess up the mapping for the ECU is the TPS is set wrong.

Not to be a d!ck, but check the dizzy install. They get put in wrong more often then right. Seriously...lol.

Lert us know what happens.

Thanks for all the help guys. I checked everything and it was the iavc. Took it out cleaned it and found out that one of the pins on the connector was bent. I also switch timing 180* and blam the bastard started right up. I like to thank everyone for helping me out. Now I have to figure out what is going on at WOT. Car idles perfect, drives perfect, but WOT doesn't pull like it use to. I suspect a boost leak.

Thank you,Danny
