Help Diagnosin A No Start After Engine Rebuild! Please!

[spoold]

Ok so i have gone through the no start check list. Im still S.O.L. with this 1g. it cranks over fast enough to seem like it will grab but just wont catch and start. Just cranks.

I recently had the tranny off, crank out, etc. Block was left in the car. timing belt side was dissassembled obviously.

We timed the car perfectly. New belt/tensioner/hydraulic tensioner. No balance shafts if that makes any difference.

Trannsmission went back in and all grounds were put back together.

Its got an optima red top. its been charged. it cranks plenty fast but wont catch.

My problem is i have three plugs not plugged in that i never even unplugged (the car was running, spun a bearing, the owner started tearing down the timing belt side. I think he unplugged these and i cant find their other plugs.)

All three plugs are near the steering rack. One is coming off of the coil pack wiring harness. Its an oval plug. The other two are on the firewall, above the steering rack. Can anyone help with what these plugs may be?


ARe there any other ideas or things i might be missing? The car just got a new fuel pump, new injectors, new bearings, new hardware, new timing belt and accesories, etc.?

BTW this is for my 1990 tsi awd not my 97 gsx in my profile.

Have you checked to see if your getting spark and fuel?
I'll go look through some diagrams for you and see if I can't find these connectors.

Ok the plugs are wet, and getting spark. has plenty of charge to turn. It just wont catch. One plug was found to be the fpr solenoid, its plugged in now. One plug i believe is for the non exsistent a/c.

You dont need that fpr solenoid one, or those whole three lines on the firewall for that matter. I took mine out. That is what controls the fuel pump to initiate fuel cut, the vaccum is what controls the cut. I took mine off on my 93 GSX, havent had any problems and just got done with a full swap.
