savage bulldogs Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 If they're on the same bank , are they plugged in the right way round and have they got a good earth ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr B Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 quick swap of non working coil to working coil bank will diagnose if coil or wiring. Does seem bit unlikely have 2 dead coils after fitting belt but if had removed them and plugs during your working session or knocked wiring then more possible. I've pulled a few coil on plug packs and had them not working on refitting as extra movement finishes off a dying pack, hard one explain customer when comes in without fault :-) pretty common for issues are packs but need verify fault before start shooting parts at it . Had odder scenarios happen lol . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phillip1993 Posted January 29, 2018 Author Share Posted January 29, 2018 Tested the packs with a multimeter there defo done in will be puting back together today or tomorrow so will let you know Sent from my SM-G903F using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

savage bulldogs Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Have you had it running since you did the coilpack conversion or did you do that after the cambelt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

savage bulldogs Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Does it smell of fuel a lot when cranking ?Nipped a injector o ring, maybe ?Tps and both temp sensors making a good connection?Not adjusted the icv or tps , while stripping it down ?

Does it smell of fuel a lot when cranking ? = yes but only out the back end and it is getting fuel today it almost started on first tern over but the will only fire on the odd occasion when repetitive cranking Nipped a injector o ring, maybe ? = never removed them Tps and both temp sensors making a good connection? checked my esl dater and temp today was 11c and tps was at 6.5 and when fully open 78. Not adjusted the icv or tps , while stripping it down ? = both of these where not touched Thanks for your help btw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage bulldogs Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 No problem bud, i like to do things myself and have a soft spot for the early classics .Have you tried leaving the plugs out for a long time , letting the fuel in the bores and on the plugs to evaporate.Did you fit bigger injectors for the remap and did you plug the maf in when trying the oe ecu ? As unless a lot of time is spent on the cold start map when running mafless , it could be flooding due to the colder denser air affecting manifold pressure . Hope you suss it soon , it's starting to make my brain hurt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope you suss it soon , it's starting to make my brain hurt still ruining a maf based map atm with the stranded injectors as for letting the plugs dry iv not yet so will pop them out tomorrow and leave it alone and so do i, i love the car and tbh it's way to different to any of the rest so dont want anything else and my brain has terned to mush haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When i disconnected the ecu it automatically switched to map 1 , had to depress the throttle to the floor then turn ignition on to switch back to map 2 . Bit of a long shot that it has switchable maps or that if it has , that map2 is useless . No one local got a standard ecu to try to rule out a fried ecu . Fuel pressure reg vac line ok? , a very weak fuel pressure might cause it to fuel cut /cut spark . Can't think of much else atm , hopefully it's something simple and not lack of compression. I assume if you've got a copy of the service manual, have you checked everything electrical it says to check regarding no spark when turning it over?

savage bulldogs Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Ive seen idle issues , like hunting due to the wrong thickness headgasket but that was on a na golf . a compression test should rule out wrong gasket thickness though [emoji6] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

savage bulldogs Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Think 140 to 170 is oe compression .Strangely enough my mums nissan puke had the same symptoms today . Tried to start first turn of the key , then stalled and just cranks over . After talking to my brv , he had the same thing with his jap mx5 and it was a imobilizer issue .So we tried her spare key which wouldn't unlock the car at but started the engine first time . I know you said the alarm wasn't operational on yours but its far too coincidental not to mention . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phillip1993 Posted January 31, 2018 Author Share Posted January 31, 2018 It good thinking but there where never an oe 1 fited and the 1 i fited i never connected so i dont think its that iv got a auto elc coming out tomorrow so fingers crossed Sent from my SM-G903F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
