Picked up my s13 blacktop today!!

[callmeweezy724]

ok thanks for the advice i guess now i jus have to get somethin to test and see if im gettin power, i have work tomorrow so ill pick something up..what do i need a multimeter right? i heard i can use a test light too but that wont test for continuity it jus tells if theres power or not is that correct?

I just went and fixed my vaccum lines too thanks for all the help ill keep you updated!

[240life]

Yeah a multimeter is what you want they are about $25. No prob with the help, I will always help if i can. I am replaceing my turbo after only 500 miles of it being on the road, but my seals were leaking bad from the beginning, and boost is so fun!

[callmeweezy724]

word i cant wait! this will be my first time. Ill grab a multimeter from my job n try it out tom. thanks!

[callmeweezy724]

ok idk if i was doing this right but im tryin to find out what is causing me not to get any spark. I bought a multimeter and tested my ignitor, it was gettin resistance threw and to the other side. so i went up too the coilpack plug and was gettin it there too. Then i tested the plugs that goes to each coil pack and all four were good. Im not sure how to test my coils but i put it to that and i got nothing. Lol im not sure if im doing this right can someone help me out on how to figure out whats not working?

Just ground your spark plugs manually. Do this by pulling out each spark plug invidiually and putting them on the coilpack, then have the spark plug touch anywhere on the block. Have a friend, or someone try to turn it on. You shoud see an obvious spark. Based off of what you have told us on how you tested it, it you still don't see any spark from ALL coilpacks, I would assume its your ECU, or wiring on the ignitor.

If some, or 1 coilpack is getting spark, try swapping out coilpacks with the ones that arn't working. You might just have bad coilpacks.

In the FSM there's a way to test the coilpacks as well with a multimeter, its really SIMPLE, I forgot how you do it though, but iirc you just test for resistance.

I had a no spark issue for a while. Ended up being my wiring lol I was stupid and had some wires touching from the ignitor plugs.

check out my other thread zerothread/349742 yea i did that pulled the spark plug put it on the coil pack but i didnt see a spark..

[Kalypso]

i cut it..no one answered my question so i didnt want to take any chances...

cool I just got some greddy RAS's also, im going to do the same

[Kalypso]

i have the same spark problem, with my injectors and spark plugs

the whole shabang is not getting current, but the starter cranks over and I tried two ecu's.

I need to sit down and look at my connections, everything is in, but I might be mistaken.

[jiffy08]

i think your front right coilover is on the tower wrong... and good luck with the swap!

yea some body told me that in this thread im already on it. thanks tho!

my prob was my ecu i burnt somethin out i need a new one.. you have one for sale? i need an e5 check out my other thread in this section

[Kalypso]

what causes ecu's to blow like this

[Phyrx]

Bad wiring, things touching that shouldnlt be, maybe would blow the ECU

Lookin good, but a fair warning, Id get something to hold that hose up away from your exhaust manifold otherwise you'll have a fire on your hands, trust me (the hose from the block to the valve cover that replaces the stock can)

aight thanks for the advice!

I put my driveshaft back in today..is there suppose to be this much space? i kno yer suppose to use the ka dust collar, but theres a black piece still on my drive shaft for some reason i thought that was it stuck on there...

[callmeweezy724]

anyone?

[MadTechMike]

Hey dude, i just finished my SR swap and had the same question, yeah there is a gap, just the way it is, i was told not to worry about it....

if you don't have the ka dust collar you can trim 1 inch off of the sr collar with a sawzall to make it work. the gap is normal by the way

[callmeweezy724]

ok nah i was jus wondering if that space is suppose to be there because i wasnt sure if it was like that or not b4. thanks

[callmeweezy724]

does anyone have a pic of the grounding points on the sr?

[callmeweezy724]

ok i dont have my speed sensor hooked up either when i took mine out the sr transmission it looked different from my ka. I thought it was suppose to be the same..what came out of it...and heres wut the other piece looks like on the transmission..my ka speed sensor looks different from that

[positron1]

They looked identical when I took them out.

[callmeweezy724]

yours looks like that?? ill get some pics of mine when i get home im at work right now
