My 90 Galant isn't getting an injector pulse. there's fuel in the rail, the starters going, i've got spark, there's just nothing getting into the cylinder.

but that's not what i'm trying to fix.

I just bought a datalogger a palm III (mmcd), came with the software, cable, and hotsync cradle.

background: Car is a 1990 Galant AWD, with VR4 conversion, ecu, 4g63t, trans, wiring harness, teh works. The car has never been started with the current setup, everything is stock minus a tbe, mbc, and ported 14b.

I plug the datalogger into the port located below the dash on the 90 Galant N/T. doesn't do anything. I try starting the car, still no readings, i fiddle with some of the check boxes in the program. still nothing. My question is mostly for those that have done the n/t conversion. How did you get your datalogger to work?

no values read, and it doesn't tell me anything. another vr4 guy came over this evening and all he had to say was "huh." he has no clue why either the car nor the datalogger work, but i'd imagine they are the same problem.

is there a difference b/t the non-turbo cars and the turbo cars by means of datalogging?

is there a difference b/t the 90 and 91 that won't let me datalog this?

or worse, am i just entirely incompetent with using the datalogger?

i guess i've got more troubles than the damn things worth b/c of all the conversion stuff i've had to do, but almost all of it should be bolt-on affair.

any help at all is appreciated.
