I just got done with a swap and started her up, and when we did it had an idle problem, so first thing we did was check for spark......1,2 were firing but 3,4 were not

-first I swaped coils and still nothing-second swaped computers still nothing-third swaped ignitors still nothing-forth pulled the cap off the CAS to see if there was hidden damage and it looked good.-next swaped coil harness and checked grounds and still nothing

what should I check next? I am stumped

I just checked for continuity between the coil plug "harness side" and with the ignitor plug (4 wire) and everything checks out......

did you check for power?

Did you check for continiuty on all for wires going back to the ecu?

When you re-wired the plug near the headlight did you wire the two wires together on the engine side like you are supposed to cause the 240 wiring only has power for one coil where on the sr side they split it off into two power wires for the coil packs??? I had the same problem but mine turned out to be a bad ignitor chip... Check your connections and make sure your ecu plug is in there nice and snug.

I checked those wires they were done right,

I tested the ECP,Ignitor,Coils on someone elses car and they all work fine

Does anyone know the wire circuit for the igniton system for the SR?signal,power,etc.
