anyone get a pic of it on the trailer? looked really good up there

[SF5boost]

fml somebody figure out my ignition problem. i have literally check everything. anybody want a ej20g in about a month if it doesnt run. im selling it.

[bigd_wright]

Honestly there is only a few things that it could be... i would start with every fuse (replacing) and then that would eliminate that. i think you should try a new crank sensor because that controls weather or not you are getting spark and weather or not you are getting fuel. we have one at work you are welcome to try...but also what else could it be?? Ecu junk? especially when the starter was hooked up wrong and it sparked trying to start it, that could have fried the Ecu... just a thought...not sure where else to check...

[squeethebee]

Shh, don't help, I'm trying to get the motor for $50!

should prolly test something as we could have fried some things when that happened...

[bigd_wright]

should prolly test something as we could have fried some things when that happened...
Glad i wasnt the one too hook it up wrong...:lol: but all in all that could have fried a few different things...Heath what have you guys tried so far??

[SF5boost]

tested crank sensor, cam sensor. im positive the ecu isnt fried because everything else that the ecu runs works. i got a pinout for my ecu and checked every pin to see if it had power or ground based on what the pin is suppose to have. everything is working the way it should, just for some reason theres no spark to any of the coils.

[SF5boost]

the ignitor might be bad, or maybe there is still something unplugged.

[Berge56]

Nice build! +1 on checking loose wires. Its prolly something really stupid. Check fuses too.

[SF5boost]

well i get spark, fuel and compression and it still wont fire. my guess is timing as got to be off

[bigd_wright]

Could be...what else would it be? id have the timing redone and get that biotch runnin!

[RedRocket]

i told you the timing was off, thats why i stayed out of it lol. at least you have spark now. and why am i in your avatar lol

[SF5boost]

so finally got the car running today. timing was way off. we timed it correctly and she fired right up. so now just got to get some things straightened out and i should be good to go. test drove it a bit and its a whole different monster. cant wait to drive it again oh man.

[bigd_wright]

Good to hear mang!! cant wait to see it on the road! :up:

[RCKSTR]

this gives me the "happy in my pants" illness :lol:

[-GWOOD-]

[bigd_wright]

So do you love EWG or what...i got mine in the mail today!!:spin: the guy shipped it from California mid-day on the 25th...and i got it at 11AM the 26th...USPS is def the best way to ship anything. PRIORITY is overnight and it was only 18.54 to ship in a big box.

[SF5boost]

[bigd_wright]

[-GWOOD-]

We are now substituting the phrase "the turd" for "the stranger" :o

[bigd_wright]

[StEv3nS]

[SF5boost]

i guess the external is gonna stick around for a bit. no vids yet.

[350sNbeer]

Looks good Heath. Im glad you got it back together, I know you really wanted to get that swapped over. You did a good job... wait... this is posted on the forum, and everyone can read this.... Don't wanna come off as a sap or make people think me and Heath are friends.

... What I meant to say was, ha! What a pile. Wouldn't it be more cost effective to scrap the car? Someday you'll realize that the LS1 was graced by the hands of god. Until then have fun breaking transmissions and look out for those tractor trailer trucks
