1.8 Swap problem... again!

invert · 06-18-2009, 05:41 PM

Heya all,

We just finished installing the rebuilt 1999 1.8L engine into my 1993 NA and now we've got a problem.

The car cranks but it does not fire.

We checked and the fuel is getting there, and we've got spark on every cylinder as well as 210psi everywhere.

Anyone knows what the problem could be ? Electrical ? Anything ?

coils and cas have to be 1.6

No fire at all????

CAS is from my 1.6L.

Firing order is from the 1.8L (as everyone does...)

I'm pretty sure the car would start even if the timing was not set correctly...

It tries to start when I crank.

And yes, I'm using the stock 1.6L AFM.
