My 91 Talon tsi FWD 5spd was rebuilt entirely engine and trans. with a balance shaft delete kit. Ran great for 3 days, One morning it wouldn't start everything was dead so I tried jumping it and found that the starter was making a weird noise. I had it tested and the starter was bad so I replaced it with a new one and its never been able to start since I've even tried pop starting it and it doesn't even try to fire up. So I checked a few things before asking for help. Its getting fire at the plugs and getting fuel thru the injectors i'm waiting on a friend right now so I can check compression. All my fuses are good and I'm going to check relays soon as my help gets here. Has anyone had this problem and what could this random and extremely troubling problem be? WTF
 
If CAS is good, got spark got fuel and got compression then mechanical timing is the culprit. T belt. Just check the timing belt and marks. Make sure youre base fuel pressure is good too, filters not getting clogged or anything funny.
