Re: ZE not starting loseing faith
You want to be sure timing is 100% correct aswell as spark and fuel.
Keep trying to crank it over.
It might just be that its cold where you live and you might have a bad O ring on the fuel injectors. Meaning, it hesitates to start when its cold.
Also make sure everyting is connected

Re: ZE not starting loseing faith

Re: ZE not starting loseing faith
Having spark isn't enough. The spark has to happen at the right time. If it's firing at the wrong time, it won't start.
Also I don't know if these motors can flood, but try deflooding it before trying to start.

Re: ZE not starting loseing faith
Yeah, what he said.
My timing was totally off because of a worn out timing belt tensioner...
It caused lots of problems.
Had spark, fuel, air.... all the things necessary for combustion...just not in the correct order.
Check the newly updated topic & see if the symptoms are similar.

Re: ZE not starting loseing faith

Re: ZE not starting loseing faith

Re: ZE not starting loseing faith
Did you check and make sure you didn't plug your O2 monitor sensor plug into your fuel rail? It will fit and if you did the engine will run like crap just like your saying it does.

Re: ZE not starting loseing faith
i didnt try that yet i used a scan tool and i got 2 codes maf and air temperature but i dont see how those will make it run rough like that im gonna go try that o2 plug thingy right now and ill post back in like half an hour
Re: ZE not starting loseing faith
is the iat the green sensor beside the coolant temperature
Re: ZE not starting loseing faith
No it's the grey plug that goes into your rh (rear) fuel rail. I commented on your other post about the oil line. The picture you posted has the area circled, the plug is just left of the circled area. Check that post and you'll see what I mean. If your getting a VAF code then install the JE50 VAF for the time being. It won't run quite as smooth but at least it'll run and at high RPM's it'll really kick. ![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)

Re: ZE not starting loseing faith
im pretty sure the plugs r all right becuz the 3 that plug in at the fuel area are all taped together in one u know wut i mean
Re: ZE not starting loseing faith
Ok so swap in your JE50 VAF and see if that helps. You did say you got a VAF code right.
