Youre probably not getting any spark. The car should fire right up for a few seconds if you are getting spark.

this thread is so confusing.

what do you want help with? all i've gotten from this thread so far are: "my fog lights don't work," "i get puffs of smoke out of my exhaust," and "my turbo doesn't spin while cranking."

and why are you using non high pressure hose on a fuel injected turbo car?

post the current status of the car in a coherent paragraph or two, ask some relevant questions, and we'll try to help you.

will post a vid of the current status on friday. seems none can understand me when i write threads somehow.

1992(mark) isn't running a hp fuel feed line and he also has no flow problems. i also don't have a hp feed on my rb and that also runs fine. so that's not my problem.

please do not use logic like "non fuel injected fuel hose is perfectly safe to use on a fuel injected car," ever.


and mark just got a whole new fuel system.

^^true. but mark's car also started and ran up until that point. see the missing link here..

anywhoo heres where iam at now. installed another set of mint

i can get the car to start up. but.............. only if iam spraying starter fluid into the intake.

i have power going to the injector plugs. and iam running 12v to the fuel pump. so possibility the injectors are all bad??

so your injectors probably aren't sparking.

check continuity between the ground signal pin on the injector and its respective pin at the ECU.

the ecu's gotta have power if it's sparking (it's sparking because you're shooting starter fluid fuel into the intake and it's running).

have you tried swapping ECUs?

Jim, maybe i missed it on your thread but did you used a Noid light yet? mine has spark and fuel but found out that my injector connector didnt have a continuity. I had someone spray a starter fluid into my intake mani and while it was running under the starter fluid my Noid was not pulsing at all. i changed my crank sensor still no fire. am waiting on gerry to get back this weekend and he'll lend me his igniter see if that works. If not, ill have to check my timing gear sprocket if its in place..hope im making sense,. good luck

sprocket is right behind your timing belt gear. Sprocket sends signal to the crank sensor. but in my case i dont think its my crank or cam sensor cuz i have spark someone correct me if im wrong pls. im on same boat right now. it will crank but not fire due to my injector connectors not pulsing.
