Car Won't Start
Ok well my engine build is complete, and i have one small issue, my car won't start :D . I have a fully built bottom end and all the mod's in my sig including aem... I have tried 5 different member's maps and still no start. I am starting to think it is not related to AEM. When I go to start the car it turn's over and over but no fuel or spark. I have checked the spark plugs and they are not sparking and they have no fuel on them.. I am getting fuel pressure to the injector's and also have power to the coils. Timing looks to be fine, on aem it say's my car will not sync. I am guessing this is a cam/crank sensor issue, have any of you had issue's with those sensor's? I am getting power to them, could it be a ground or something? Any advice would be great.. -Brandon
-O yea, all fuses have been checked |
Pm'ed you {thumbup}

Thank nick, bump
|
try this put new plugs in then put the key in let the fuel pump kick in then try to start it. if this dont work go to the aem section and look up my car wont start on a dime thread i did and they explane how to lower a setting down to 500 or something like that if its not that. then there is some sensor not pluged in all the way.

Crank sensor installed incorrectly, maybe 180 degrees off.Also set your cam gears 0/0 change them when you get the car running.
Did you swap aem's with your buddy? Load his map in yours and put it in his car. If it starts on his car then it is a sensor issue. Try his aem in yours just to eliminate the aem. |
I agree with the crank sensor. I had one of those get installed wrong at a shop...it worked for a while and then it got TAKEN OUT by that metal disk. Car shut right off...didn't start again until the sensor was replaced.

Try stock comp insted of AEM ( I have almost the same setup except 35R and it will start it but wont idle) its a 5 min thing to try out.
|
How hard is it to get to the crank sensor?
|
You will have to pull the front cover off. It will probably be hard with the motor in. Its a tight fit.
