Fuck it i'm giving up...Help
 
Yesterday I had the LS swap done 100% and had it idling and running for a good 5 minutes, I decided to give it some throttle under the hood, the thing bogged out and died, now I havent been able to get it started since, I changed the ignitor, cap and rotor thinking that was my problem, but it wasnt, I dont know what to do, I have run out of options, the car is getting fuel, you can smell it when cranking, but no spark.

Any help would be great, I need to have this POS ready for sundays HT meet in kitchiner.

Check your Fuel Lines and make sure your getting gas at the rail.

pull the plugs and check them for gas. could be fouled.

Ok good old fashion trouble shooting tips

check engine light? if so which?

grounds usually this is a forgotten thing in swaps that cause major headaches

spark plugs are most likely fubared so replace

It was the Ignition Coil, so I just grabbed one off the old Dizzy.

yup... that damn ignition coil. Ive had that happen to me a couple of times. One thing i learned was that when doing a compression test you should always unplugg the dizzy connector or pull the fuse other wise it could potentially kill the coil... many hours of cursing and throwing tool across the garage only to find out that it was the ------- coil.

glad you found the prob...
