HELP!!!!! CAR WONT START!
 

My car wont start. I just finished my setup. its a 93 civic with a B18A1 (from 90 integra) 98 GSR 5 speed. Did auto to manual conversion also. I have a brand new battery, Pretty sure everything is hooked up right, but when i turn the key forward to start it, the starter clicks once, and thats it!!!! Please help, must finish this car before end of the weekend!

Heres stuff I've done:
I spliced the 2 fat wires together , and the black wire with green wire w/white stripe (for auto to manual conversion)
Also removed the little blue box under the dash (blue interlock box or something)
Had Chris (moderator) chip my ecu, and convert it for manual trans.
Using OBD0 starter - it worked before pulled, but could that be my problem..??

I'm pretty sure all B series starters are interchangeable, regardless of OBD-X.

Good luck though man.

if it doesn't crank over then check you grounds and power wires from the battery, Make sure the big ground on the trans is tight and good same as the wires on the starter

check the wire from the starter to the battery? or try tapping your starter with a bat :1 worked for me whenever it wouldn't start until i changed it

It lives! I tightened the battery cable, added a ground, and hit the remote start. it cranked 3 times and fired up!!!! I still cant shift though, I'm gonna go out and try to get some pressure in the clutch now. I'll post a vid or some pics later.

Well I got some clutch now, i drove and it did alright. kinda sluggish, i dont have the throttle cable bolted up so i wasnt getting it all, I have hellacious exhaust leaks, and no O2. Plus, this freaked me out.... When I shut off my car, my remote start immediately starts cranking the starter. so i have a wire wrong, so i'm just going to disconnect it. I dont have my clutch all the way done i guess cuz i dont have reverse yet, had to push it outta the driveway. Pics will be up after i eat

Remote start on a manual transmission car... I've heard some horror stories about this. haha... one of these days you'll forget that you left it in gear and... you know the rest. :l

I've had a remote start on my manual car for years now, you'll learn to not leave it in neutral. ;)
