i have performed a spark check. and a fuel check.. my timing is dead nuts.. and my cas is fine. what special tools do i need to read codes so i can post them??:dsm:
 
As much as you may not want to, do a compression check. Then let us know what happens. I put my built motor together with a supposedly "good" head, couldn't start it, and 4 days later figures out 4 valves weren't seating properly, thats why it wouldnt start.
 
the neo's dont work very well on dsm's apexi is trying to figure it out but i dont know if they have yet.. i doubt that is your problem but you never know
