Ok I will let you know wut I have-2g with 6 bolt swap,w/ halleffect sensor and the chip method for CAS flip due to 95 ecu, and dsmlink. here is my problem. Latley my car has been acting weird at ower rpms I could tell it was missing and only running on 2 cylinders, and then above 2000 it would be fine. Well yesterday I drove to work and at work I did a compression test on my motor. I had 140psi all the way across ( Lower compression pistons with mitsi 3layer headgasket, same compression I had after I built the motor 10k miles ago). Well now I went to start my car and only fires cylinders 1+4 and NO tach on dash or avc-r. But dsmlink shows a rpm reading. Now here is the fun. Took parks off the car my friend drove up to my work-CAS,his wired up cas mod for 95-96 car, his coils. Theres 12v going to both coils but It will not fire 2+3. Can the ignition module cause this, or due you guys have any ideas. I am stright stumped.
