Finshed my ZC swap today. However it won't start up. It has spark and fuel at least to the rail. I think it might be an injector issue (possibly they are not getting power to them).







I also had time to install the Sedan Handles I got from the junkyard, bye bye Key Holes...



Here is a How-To for the Sedan Handles...

That locking rod u can take out. There should be a plastic clip that slids up and then the rod comes out the the lock. Thats if u want too.

I tried getting it out but its too hard to reach inside the door so I just left it there.

Nice looking swap, too bad it doesn't run yet. Are you planning on leaving the intake like that?

FourthGenHatch

I got it from the nastiest like faded yellow sedan with brown interior. That thing should be happy I ripped those crap colored panels off of it.

As for the car not running I have improved upon the situation but not solved it. It was throwing code 10 for TA sensor. I swap around 2 connectors and that solved it. Still doesn't start. I then bought new spark plugs. Fires stronger but still doesn't start. I now believe it is a problem with it getting fuel. I used a B18A fuel hose and that is not working so hot with the ZC. So tomorrow I'm going to the junkyard where I know there is a AWD wagon that should have the D16A6 parts.

You smell fuel at all when you fire it?

could it be the starter or distributor connectors not wired up properly?

FourthGenHatch

The starter works fine, the engine just doesn't start. I don't think my Distributor could be wired up wrong, there was no really wiring for it.

is your fuel pump running when you turn it to "on" position?...it could also be the fuel filter stopping up gas flow

i hope you are not throwing code 21 or 18 [15...can't remember the number] (dist or ecu related)
