Re: issues with spark and turning over
I would do the obvious checks first, make sure the CAS isn't unplugged, MAS, Coolant temp sensor. Make sure the coil pack is plugged in tight, all the spark plug wires are pushed in all the way. I'm guessing you probably already did that though.
Have you verified that when the problem is at hand, that you are getting spark? I'm guessing you have no issues with compression being that the car did idle beautifully like you said, but doing a quick compression test wouldn't hurt just to verify it's all ok. You're obviouslly getting fuel if it's drenched in fuel. So I'd be making sure that you are for sure getting spark. Take the plug out and physically look and see that you are getting spark on all 4 plugs. If you are, well then the problem is more then likely with the A/F mix. Could be caused by a few things. See if you can find someone with another ECU and pop that in and see if that fixes. If not, hopefully you have a way to log. Start looking at things like the coolant temp. It's happened before where peoples coolant temp sensor if f-ed and gives some extreme value so when you try to start, it dumps in too much fuel to help it start. Also wouldn't hurt to verify your timing marks all line up.
Good luck man, how you been?
