Car won"t even start with spark and fuel!?!?!?!?!?

[92_talon584]

like the title say's the car wont even try to start nothing at all has spark in all 4 made sure to check them. It is getting fuel so much the plugs are wet like soaked. tomorrow i plan on testing the coolent temp sensor ,CAS,replace plugs,boost leak test,and possibly compression test ( if i can get ahold of one ), and check my timing. i have tried 4 different ecu's and nothing im just at my wit's end with this thing and a really want to drive it again. Thanks guys.

are you sure it's not coolant in the cylinders? head-gasket maybe?

 

[92_talon584]

no i smelled it it reaks of fuel badly

Ran into this problem a few weeks ago with my friends 1g. CHECK COMPRESSION. i went crazy trying to find why the car wasnt starting and it came down to a big loss in compression.

Sounds like low compression or out of time.

Check the MAF also.

is the car even cranking??? If it cranks then disregard my post but if it's not even cranking check your starter and your ign switch

May I ask why it was not running in the first place. Did you do some type of repair then it wouldnt start? I would start by geting new plugs, I have had it a few times ware it would not start because of fouled plugs. Check the CAS, Check MAF, Check compression. Then i would make sure its perfectly in time. If you do that you will find your problem.

compression test i say

well turns out 0 psi across the board im 98.12% sure it jumped timing sense i can't turn the car over without useing the key by hand it is impossible..

Yeah it def. sounds like your timing belt jumped. There is only one way to be sure. Time to get dirty ,so pull your lower timing cover and check out where your timing marks are at. I hate to say it bro. If you have 0 psi across the board that most likely means bent valves.

 

[92_talon584]

yea its ok i havn't done any head work on this one yet so ill just be doing it earlier than id thought.. it just sucks because i just did a manual swap and it was running when i parked it go to start it and she just turns over and over and over then to find this out damn! but i guess ill just have to hope its only bent valves.. anybody know were you can get good prices on arps n head gaskets, along with an oem timing kit??

Modern Automotive Performance has pretty reasonable prices for arps and head gaskets. As far as the timing component kit, I would go to the dealer. Good luck man.

Try extreme psi, oem gasket and everything, stm has kits also, about your best bet. Go ahead and spend the money all in the right place. Do it all, call it done. ARP'S look at the vendors many will price match.
