Help Evo 8 will not start
Help Evo 8 will not start
Hey guys,
this is about as general as a help question can get...drove the car two weeks ago, go and try to start it today and it just keeps turning over and will not start...WTF!!?? Checked the basics, fuse for the CDI box, fuses under dash, changed the spark plugs... they were wet from cranking and engine not starting. It has a super mini battery so I even hooked jumper cables up to get a little more juice, doesn't even sound like it is trying to fire...I just recently replaced the starter so it turns over good and strong. Car was just tuned couple months ago. When I last drove the car no issues, ran some errands with it, it was running like a top. Park it back in the garage, put it on a trickle and now it wont start.
Anyone have any idea of where to start?
Thank you for your input in advance.

99.9% of the time it's an aftermarket CDI box of some sort. bypass it and i bet you will have no more problems.
if you do, then at least you can go through the normal checklist of stuff to look at.

No way to by pass my CDI, I am running M&W Pro14 Evo Sequential Ignition Box...all 4 coils come out at the same time...can I use the old school trick of grounding the spark plug?
Definitely sounds like no spark.
