i still can't get this car to start. Heres a lil background on the car. I bought it a month ago with a blown tranny, went to look at it, car started right up in -10 degree weather. Took the car home tried to start it nothing, just cranked and sputtered. Replace trans, and charged battery and i get the same thing. It will crank and crank, it sputters tries to start, but wont. i have seen the tach jump to 600 rpm when it tries to start and then back to zero.
I bench tested the fuel pump, and it works fine, i even replaced it with a walbro 255lph out of my mustang. I have good compression, and fuel pressure is good. The pump works fine, i popped the fuel line off the rail and had my friend crank it to see it the line was clogged, and i got fuel to the rail. I have spark, the plugs are good too, when i pulled them they are wet with fuel, but the cyclinders are not flooded.
All 3 timing marks line up, the maf is cleaned and plugged in. I check to make sure the map, tps, crank, sensors are all plugged in. No inhooked vaccum lines either. I am at a complete loss as to why it wont start.
