truns over but wont start

[midnightsliding]

well i jsut got done wwith the swap ion my friends car, i got some sensor that is broke, on the top of the intak manifold, pic below...hers whast pulgs i have left overand also when i hooked the battery back up the check engine light was on on the dash with no keys in the ingnition, so maybe possible wireing problems if so where to start?thanks guys

well the sensor you broke is a part of the idle controll valve thingy or something like that. i don't know if that would cause your car to all together not start or not because i've never tried to start it with the valve unplugged. i know when i first tried to start my car it would start because i mixed to plugs up. there is a plug that goes into the power transistor unit and a plug that goes to the coil pack harness that can actually fit together. so i ended up switching the two plugs and the car ran quite nicely afterwards.

That is the FCID sensor that is broken... I actually think i may have another one in my garage...I will double check for ya...just email me at [email protected] but as for not starting...i am not sure if that would stop your car from firing...it should still work... One thing you may want to check is make sure that you have the dropping resistor plugged in...if that isn't on then you won't get the fuel to the engine. You should pull the plugs...check to see if your getting spark...if so check the fuel pump...see if your getting pressure... either way, its a fun road of troubleshooting... if you have any other questions feel free to email...

how much for that fcid sensor, and i have fuel going to the rail, and i also have spark but its not running , i think the injectors might be cloged, what do u guys think?>

[Tweaktac]

I doubt it is the injectors...I would definatly check to see if the dropping resistor is plugged in... that was my problem...I had fuel and spark... check it... it plugs into the a plug right next to the mafs... its a small silver box that was on the side of the original air box from your clip.... double check it and let me know...

Are you guys sure you don't have the fuel lines backwards. From the looks of that dark pic it looks like you do, that will definitely cause your car not to start.

You're a sick puppy:D I wouldn't worry much about that part as it's not the reason why your motor won't start. It's usually a small wiring issue.

got it running, fuel lines are right, one from fuel filter gose into the fuel rail and other one gose to FPR . and one of my friends told me that that sensor control idel when the A/C is on, but thsi car dosnt have it so i jsut used broken sensor to plug the hole
