QUOTE (celica74 @ Aug 1, 2012 - 1:00 PM) a quick and easy way to see if its getting fuel is to take some carb cleaner and spray some past the throttle body, turn it over. If it runs you have a fuel problem, if it doesnt it has an ignition problem. Its getting fuel. I know this because, after I turn it over and stop, fuel comes back out of the throttle body(I've got the air intake off of it). Its just weird that this happened right after i put trans fluid in. I know it shouldn't have anything to do with it, and yet... |

QUOTE (Special_Edy @ Jul 31, 2012 - 7:59 PM) Try swapping the relay next to it to see if that restores starter function, that way your sure the relay is the issue.  I know the starter relay is bad, that's why i was using a screwdriver to complete the circuit. Prob is, ...now that i have the trans fluid in, its not starting. I know it getting fuel because it started before i put the trans fluid in, so why wont it start now? The trans fluid doesn't effect the fire, so whats the freaking deal?! |

Did you put the torque converter bolts back in? Ive seen sillier mistakes before. A test for you- check the fluid level on the dipstick with the engine OFF. Now check it with the engine running and the trans in park. Now check it with it in drive while running( be safe dont run yourself over!). The fluid should drop on the second two checks, if the fluid level is the same your trans fluid pump is shot. The pump and the torque converter would be the only reason I can think of why it wouldnt engage in any gear. Duh, ...In all my getting I forgot the trans fluid. Ok, got the trans fluid in, now i have a new problem. Its turning over fine, but wont start. Btw, does anyone have a spare starter relay, i'm starting my car(or, I was) with a screwdriver,lol. |

My car is a 94, idk what year the "new" engine is(engine #2). It looks newer than the old engine(engine #1), I do know that the the injectors are in diff places. On #1 they go into the intake, and on #2 they go into the head itself. Also, there are a couple plugs coming from the cars harness that I cant find homes for. So I'm thinking that Ive got a OBDII. I need help, Ive got to get this thing running. What are some of the diff between the two? |

QUOTE (Special_Edy @ May 17, 2012 - 11:34 PM) QUOTE (Special_Edy @ Apr 3, 2012 - 12:41 PM) First step is to determine if the starter works. There are two wires connected to the starter, one that is always receiving power from the battery and a smaller wire that makes the starter operate when you turn the key in the ignition(the solenoid wire). When you turn the key, 12 volts is sent thru the solenoid wire to tell the starter to start turning. So to test the starter you will need to unplug the solenoid wire(look at the pic below, it has a black plug) and use a small piece of wire to short the battery terminal of either the starter or the positive side of the battery to the solenoid plug on the starter(touch it to the solenoid plug on the starter, not the wire from the ignition silly) The starter will now start to spin nonstop until you remove the wire, if the starter is functioning correctly. If the starter did not spin, it is a bad starter. If the starter did spin, then either the starter relay or ignition switch are bad.(so go ahead and reconnect the starter like its supposed to be)  To test the starter relay and ignition switch- First locate the starter relay inside the fusebox(it is located next to the battery alongside the driverside fender on my 94 GT) In the pic below, it is the purple one(yours may be different) Carefully pry the starter relay and the EFI? relay beside it out. You need a flat screwdriver or two to pry the tabs on the base of the relay so that you can wiggle it out. Now swap the two relays(put them back in the opposite spots) and try to start the car. If the starter magically starts working then you have a bad relay. If the starter tested good and the relay swap did not fix it, then you have a bad ignition switch. Hope this helps let me know if you need any clarification. Also, Autozone can test starters on or off of the vehicle(better to remove it and let them test it on a bench) hope this helps  Use the search button! Thanks, Ill work through those steps till I find the bug. QUOTE (Box @ May 17, 2012 - 10:51 PM) Ground to starter perhaps? Ignition switch. If it's an automatic, could be a neutral safety switch acting up. Would be something along those lines if the starter isn't even bumping over. Odds are it's something simple. I forgot to attach the ground to a starter once, talk about freaked out. Thanks, Ill look into it. |

So I did an engine swap. Bad 7afe for a good 7afe. The long and short is, the engine is in. Bolted up, wired up, and wont start. Ive have good grounds, I'm getting power to the relays, fans, etc. But the starter isn't doing anything. I know its hooked up, because i never disconnected it during the swap, and I never had problems with it before. WHAT IS GOING ON ?! .......HELP! |
