Its been 5 weeks since my car has ran correctly, wtf!
Lets try this again. Maybe somebody can figure it out this time...
obd2 b16 jdm engine in a 94lx
ecu works in other cars
no codes
car cranks and maybe spits after 15 turns
car only starts up quick when forced into limp mode
map/tps are setup properly
using a homemade dizzy conversion harness following h-t specs
using an obd2 alternator so I changed the plug also
210 compression

Possability of mixed up wires on dizzy? Wait a minute...are you running obd1 or obd2 ecu? Also what engine harness are you using on this? Are you running the crank sensor off the oil pump or off an obd1 dizzy? I'll stop now, I'm getting confused...it's too late for this :P

ok....we have all the time in the world....lets start slow!
What ecu? Wiring an obd2 connector to obd1 on the dist is easy. All it is...is one big plug instead of 2 smaller ones. Everything should be a piece of cake. Make sure the wires are matching.
Of course...make sure fuel pump primes up.
If you think you have a bad ground...(I see more ppl forgetting the tranny one), and your car turns sometimes...and not others......try it in a darker room. Most of the time...if the ground catches...and the car turns over a bit...it'll spark. Then you'll locate the ground.
Make sure your fuses are not blown!
Timing correct?
Don't mix the tps and map plugs!
Let us know what you find!

Plan is to redo everything
replace wiring harness of entire car
open up the engine(I believe its eating up my water cuz the water level keeps dropping even inside the radiator)
probably resurface head and block
I hope the damn cylinder head is fine without any cracks

Hey Ravage turn your motor until #1 is at tdc and take off your distributor cap and see if your on rotor button is on #1
I think all it is, is that you have the distributor in the cam keyway 180 out.

Thats what I thought to. Until I tuned a turbo delsol last week and the only way the distributor would go in was 180 out. We just rearanged the plug wires and put it in time. the kids driving it like thar right now. By far one of the stranger things Ive seen in awhile.
