Wat would be causing my motor to not be getting fuel to the spark plugs?? I blew my head gasket. Did everything i had to do to get it running again. But now this is my issue. I have spark. My injectors are spitting fuel wit no problem. But somewhere from my injectors to the plugs, Im getting nothing.

does the engine crank? check the battery? diagnose your car a little better and you'll figure it out. you're getting spark, fuel, and air?

yes sir. i blew my head gasket so i did alot. i got a valve job done on my head. it also got resurfaced. new gaskets everywhere. i replaced my cam sprocket and crank gear. also my timing chain. my belts are in good condition. everything is good. it should fire right up. but like i said, my only issue is the fact that im not getting fuel to my plugs? i had a nissan specialist(close friend)come check it out and he couldnt figure it out eitehr??

cam gears are good too? as in they're positioned at top dead center? check your fuel lines? i bet the problem's something totally stupid too, like a unplugged wire.

my cam is at top dead center. everything is timed fine. i checked my fuel lines and theyre good also. a friend of mine said it could be faulty wiring or my ecu so i switched ecu's and still nothing. and i have the biggest feeling its something stupid too but i still cant figure it out.

What engine? I just put a new dohc ka in my coupe and the distributor was 1 tooth off. I just took the bolts out and rotated the distributor untill it ran. It drove me nuts for about 2 hours.

get a timing light The sohc needs the oil pump gear/spindle to be pointed in the right spot before you put the distributor in.
