Hi... I've got a problem with a 2g DSM... I have evo 8 ecu on it, recently installed...

I have disabled the immobilizer, the car cranks but don't start... it looks like the engine where out of time, it ckranks but sounds like the engine stucks...

I'm thinking there is (diffidently) a problem with the spark timing... because I disconnect the coils and the engine cranks freely...

my rom is the 9653006

the sparks works, the gas pump works... anyone knows what maybe happening, if I have to change the spark plugs positions to start the 2g dsm?

P.D. I have read a loooot info on dsmtuners, but I can't find anything... and I have experience with ecuflash since I have been reflashing my evo 5 about a year...

I have this answer from evolutionm forums...

Depending on which CAS you have you will need to swap coils.

97-99, or 1G CAS, no need to swap coils.

95-96 have a inverted CAS signal, so coils need to be swapped.
(Even with coils swapped, car may not run right.)

I'll try it and come back with news!... if anyone else knows what else could be wrong it would be helpful!!!
