Just got the SR swapped in but ran into some problems

[shady240]

ok, just swapped in a S13 SR into my 89 240. at first the starter was working and the engine would turn over but it wouldn't catch. (im linking that to the timing.) but now for some reason the starter just clicks and then thats the end of it. i switched out the guts of the starter with the KA SOHC starter and its doing the same thing. just clicking. so i figure its not the starter. battery is charged, holds a charge and is currently rating at ~13V. ive read that theres a wire you have to cut and splice together under the fuse box but thats all ive heard. no one said which wire and which wire so on and so forth.

currently im ready to pay someone thats in the area to come over and help me problem solve with me due to the fact it has to be out of the garage by this sunday.

The only wire under the fuse box that needs to be touched is the park/neutral safety switch. But that's for an auto->5 speed swap

alright, im safe with that wire then. question is whats causing my starter to not kick my engine in the balls telling it to start?

Check alt. fuse.

Check alt. fuse.

that would cause the starter to not kick the flywheel in the @$$?

just checked, all the fuses in the box are in working order.

o cmon, no one has ever experienced this ever?

well i got a teeny update, i ripped apart the starter tonite and cleaned it all up nice like. tomorrow we'll see if that did the trick. im prayin it does

Try and turn it over by hand. Maybe the engine froze up?

[shady240]

turned it yesterday just to make sure. not seized.

Alright new update.got the starter put back into the car and its turning over again, just gotta adjust the timing is what i think the problem is now. if anyone knows of an additional timing "guide" that goes a tad more in depth with the CAS feel free to let me know, perhaps a link would pwn
