Ok, so the guy who was doing my swap totally messed up the wiring I'm assuming. I had DG do the wiring for him, and the car did start and idle. But he took the engine out and when he put it back in now won't start. Basically now he is passing the car back to me incomplete and not running, because he can't figure it out.
The car turns over just won't fire up. Any ideas at what I should start checking first? And let this be a lesson to everyone if you have the know how just do the swap yourself and save yourself the headache! |

Thanks Dr. Tweak I get my car back today so I will test for those things tommorow.
I have a walbro fuel pump so shouldn't I hear it running with the key in the on position anyway? If I have fuel and spark, what should I check for next? |
