I Just finished my 6bolt swap and when i tried to turn it over it would not start. I heard it back fire once or twice but thats it. I was wondering if there are any other ways have the plug wires set up other than what rre has on there site. I followed the description of what they say to do and how to order the wires so im just stuck on what to do. My car is a 95 and im using a 90 cas and the wiring for it and the ecu pins are correct so im just wondering if anyone has any suggestions?
 
OK thanks ill try that. We did some crazy work today with everything all over the motor including timing, spark, everything. We check everything and double check everything and power is running through all and in perfect working condition how it should be. However i do not know how check the cas. Thats the only thing in my whole swap that could be wrong. how do i check it? the ecu is fine i swapped a different one in and still nothing.
 
Hey another question i have is do I maybe have to swap the two blue wires it says to swap? I know you can do that or switch your wires but i read in another thread a guy had the same problem as me and swapped the wires and it worked? I swapped the plug wires and it worked so idk if this is different or will do the same thing?
 
its still dumping fuel in just cylinder 4 and no others. Im getting fuel and they all spark but just plug number 4 is wet and the rest are not firing. Could this have to do with the power transistor or the ignition coil rewire? Or could the cas still cause something like this? sorry for all these questions but none of what is going on here makes and sense and it seems like everything thats happening to me has not happened to anyone on here for some reason. They find solutions to these crazy problems but i cant get any different response out of my car other than it cranking and not running.
