I just did a swap on my FC because the old motor apex seal gave out on me but now after i complete the swap i go to start the car she wont start, she cranks, but wont start.. i check to see if she was flooding nope.. then i check for spark "no sparks". Im not sure if i suspose to set any timing or doing anything else because i was gettin sparks before i did the swap

Check the timing on the crank angle sensor.



Is it cranking but you're not even hearing the puttering of gas? I just finished the motor swap in my car, and it cranked but didn't turn over cause I had no fuel in the lines, so I primered it by connecting a jumper wire to each end of the primer that is on the wiring harness, right by the fuel cut thingy on the passenger side.

i have fuel but no sparks

well 1st check to see if the coils have power. There is a black wire with a yellow stripe I believe that powers the coils. To verify spark I usually ground the plug and watch for a spark while someone cranks the car...

i tried that no spark havnt check to see they're power to the coil yet, but i ran tests like the haynes manual say on resistance of the coil and they're all in recommended spec so i know they're good. so i really have no clue what sup.

You might want to try searching the various forums for "spark" in the topic because I have been reading quite a few no spark questions.



BTW, on my T2 the power wire was tan to the leading coils.

i just came back in from checkin the power to the pack, 12.4v but still no spark what could be wrong

Crank Angle Sensor?

1st off make sure connectors x15/16 are plugged in. I bet they are not.



Then check the resistance on the cas. Then check the the wires from the cas to the ecu for continuity.The make sure you see a signal at the wires that connect to the ecu. Then check the ecu signal wires to the coils for contiunity. Then replace ecu if neccessary.
