ok so the car wont star up.... the inside gauges are all "ticking", especially the boost gauge... it goes from 0-over the 30 psi mark back and forth... it feels like there is no spark but the spark plugs are new... what the hell can i do to fix it?!?!?!?!??!?!?!

thanks!

 

no start or no crank

 

Man, you guys are having a hella hard time with that motor replacement.

 

THis was happening on my car before we found out the electrical system wasn't grounded right.

Not sure that helps at all, but it's what we ran into. Possibly the starter wires are crossed (if that's possible(?

thats the hot or cold side charge pipe??

 

On my sssc' I ran into thesam ordeal my buddy put my connection on wrong

 

check if the battery is charged! That is one of the signs of a semi-dead battery on our cars

 

That's the hotside.

 

First thing I thought after reading the OP, bad ground somewhere.

 

It cranks but it won't start and a couple of days ago it started and it ran but the ideling was bad so he re did the timing and it turned on great and everything but 10 minutes later it died...I changed the crankshaft sensor but it just won't turn on now

 

Now it sounds like your timing is still off.

 

It sounds like it a chevorlet now ha jk, it sounds like a loose ground

 

ok i just checked and my car does not have that cable that goes from the starter to the chasis... is that too bad or i need one there?

 

yeah you'll need to ground it bro

 

Why would you be missing a ground cable? It doesn't need to be removed from the car to pull the engine. BTW, it doesn't hook to the starter- it is connected to a stud on the trans. Also, make sure that the smaller ground shown in the pic is not hooked to the starter B+ post.

 

ooo ok so it was right... so what could it be!?!?!
