man oh man, this is becoming frustrating ! I was trying to figure out the coil issue with my car tonite, and after starting the car a few times running tests, the car won't start again. It cranks and turns over, but it doesn't start. Its not the fuse again, I checked all that......What in the world could it be now ?
Another problem I ran into is that my friend has an OBD II scanner, and we tried to use it to maybe see if it was throwing any codes, but it wouldnt communicate. Could this be bcos I have AEM EMS ? If so, how do you check for codes, or diagnose a problem like this thru the ECU ?

Built motor, GT35R turbo with .70 hotside, fullrace mainfold, odyssey mini battery, AEM EMS with wideband and 3.5 bar map sensor, Walbro pump with 1000cc RC injectors, HKS DLI, stock coils and NGKBPR8ES plugs (gapped at 0.26, the way they come out of the box).
Depending on how you have the HKS DLI wired, I would try to pull that out, and isolate the unit in order to troubleshoot the spark issue. Make sure you have the following parameters for coil dwell in the AEM advanced ignition setup (35/4/0).
