Car wont start after rebuild, HELP!

[john]

Well if I get time I will drive down to shakopee and check wht that connector is for on my other car. Shouldn't be the 02 on the drivers side. If I remeber there is only the power transistor and coil on the drivers side...

Check fuel yet?

well, I took the hose off and cranked it into a beer bottle and it just kind of dribbled out.
that would be great if you could check where that connector is on your car.

Take the fuel line off, have someone start the car and see if it comes out upon cranking the motor. Should shoot out quite good as it is under pressure. May want to get a bucket for the check.

If you did this and it "dribbled" you have the reason it won't start. This is most likely an electronic issue though. Did the ground strap that melted just happen or was it like that?

This is john on James' computer.

I found a couple CAS sensors. I don't think that is the problem but you can borrow one. I pulled a 90 CAS (one with Cord) and a 91/94 (no cord) and will leave them outside at the hopkins house. Give me a call and I will give you directions.

You have to make sure that all of the timing marks line up not just on top.

Well I didn't get your call but call tomorrow if you want to try. The two times I have had a non-running DSM with fuel and spark were:

-Timing skipped
-Bad ECU

You need to figure out the fuel issue though. Maybe the ecu.

well, the head I purchased for the car was from ebay, and it looked to have brand new spark plugs in it. after literally every other test I could possibly come up with I switched the plugs from the head that was previously on it (had bent valves) and it fired right up and ran great, the plugs were autolite 13's? idk some kind of autolite plug. I have no idea how this made any difference because I checked for spark on the autolite plugs and they were more than good in my opinion. I threw some NGK's in there and it fired right up..... wtf? thats crazy. maybe I have a weak coil pack?

also, thank you VERY MUCH john for your offer. its peope like you that make forums like this a good place to be.

cheers
