DiskoIS

So a few weeks ago I tore apart my engine, rebuilt the bottom end with new used machined pistons, rods, etc. New timing belt, etc. Finally got enough time yesterday to finish putting everything back on, and fluids in. I went to start the car, fired right up, idled for about 10-15 sec then stalls.

Now everytime it starts and then stalls within 10 sec. I can restart it and rev it but it still dies no matter what I do.

Sounds like timing. Make sure you're in correct time. I know that some JDM engines have a couple marks on the crank pulley that appear to be at TDC on the #1 but it was actually a couple degrees off. The car had the same problems you're experiencing.

I mean, if you're getting fuel, air, and spark, the only thing left to be the culprit is the timing. I would check that first and then go from there.
