We recently completed a fresh rebuild on my 2g. We are having trouble diagnosing a no start issue. We have have confirmed we are getting power and fuel, but still have no spark. We have swapped multiple coilpacks, transistors, ECUs, CAS(3), plugs, wires, and the engine harness. The Altenator and starter have tested good and we installed a new Optima battery as well. The engine is cranking, but won't turn over. Any ideas?

So you have fuel but no spark? Are you saying you have fuel as in you have injector pulse or are you just talking about fuel pressure?
 
Check your coolant temp sensor and make sure there is water in it.

When you say water in it do you mean in the water neck? The last thing we did before we tried to start was top it off with coolant.

Alright guys I'll be doing a compression test tonight and getting the battery check. Any other ideas?
