Just got in my new Mines ECU for my car. The ECU light comes on which is more than I can say for the old one, but the car still doesnt want to crank up. Even with the new ECU I cant hear the fuel pump come on, we disconnected the line and tried to crank it and no fuel is comming through the line. Anyone have any ideas what I should try now?

It took me a while to get mine to run. Is the engine turning over and not firing or nothing is happening at all when you turn the key? Has there been an auto to manual conversion done? Turns out theres a wire by the fuse box you have to jump if you have done a auto to manual. I had to go through and rechecked all my wiring (also had 1 mis-connected wire). I finally got it to turn over then it wouldn't fire. That problem was the cas was not lined up right. One of the keys on the cam was broken off in the cas.

Its turning but wont fire. Its not an auto to manual. The CAS is fine because the car started up fine for weeks, and I even drove it around the block before. Then I put in my electric fans and now it wont fire. Undid everything, new ECU, replaced some relays, still nothing. Its a fuel related problem, Ive seen that no fuel goes through the lines when the engine tries to fire.

DAMN, thats sucks. I have a feeling its an electrical problem. Since you did some electrical work and its not working after. I would get my multimeter out and start probing your fuel pump relay and fuel pump power wire. Did you change your fuel pump. I hope you soldered it (& all your other wiring too) so it has a good connection in there.

I called out a real wiring pro to come look at my car last week, and I believe the problem is I have a faulty ground somewhere, I know the general area but not exactly where. We put a bunch of wires together to go around the problem and got the fuel pump to function, but the motor still didnt start. I think Im not getting spark. He says that on problem is likely causeing both of the fuel pump and spark. Any ideas where I should check first?
