Unable to get the car to crank over to a start after completing the swap
I'll try give some infomation as to what the situation is, The donor engine was from a 1998 st204 in perfect working condition (130ks) put into a 1995 st204 i have purchased with a completely seized motor from driving at extreme heat after burst radiator. Both engine bays/ecu's etcs are almost identical not much i can tell is different from the manufacturing years. After the swap was complete the starter just continuously cranks, I have ALMOST got the engine to turn over a few time previously by spraying a lot of aerostart while giving it some slight throttle acceleration but to no avail. since last night i have tried a few things; -checking all fuses -making sure all accessible plugs are not loose -tried using the 1998 ecu (cranks the same, appears identical) -putting axles back on and topping up tranny oil -checked grounds -topping up fuel Everything appears to be installed as its suppose to be as i have checked for anything loose multiple times and compared engine bays. I've already run out of ideas as i am new to this and hoping others with more experience could give me some advise how to troubleshoot and diagnose what the problems is. Seems to be something very minor but i just cant think as to what the problem could be. cheers in advance for any advice This post has been edited by W8NKER: Apr 26, 2017 - 6:37 AM |
