Car: 240sx, sr20 swap with extras

Post

Ok I have looked around the forum here for a while now and cant seem to get to what I need. I just swapped my sr20det into my 1991 240, I hooked up all the connectors and what not and all the lights come on fuel pump primes my turbo timer powers up but I have no spark, I have made sure the grounds on the fire wall for the coilpacks are good, and still nothing and im not sure how to read the codes off our ecu's yet, and is there a way to test the ignitor chip and crank angle sensor to see if there good. Any help would be great im buggin here. Thanks everyone

make sure that you have a good ground from the battery to the body.

who did your harness? make sure the coil pack power wire(blue w/red) is spliced in with the main power wire down by the battery tray(black w/red i think)

Yes I thought grounding might be the issue so there is like 4 ground wires through out the engine bay and I undid the harnes and there is a red and black and a blue and black spliced.

what ignitor chip do you have? if its not the sr20 one, then double check the wiring for it
