I Have a 1994 MX3 GS.
I had a leak on the rocket covers, car wasn't idling well. It had 114,000 miles or 190 000kms on the engine.
I replaced the rocket covers / fuel filter / ( heard a screaming sound near the throttle body which i replaced but wasn't it ) CHanged the leads, plugs, and a remanufactured vaf. Changed the Vacuum Lines , Changed the fuel pump, Had the fuel pressure and Injectors professionally cleaned and checked. I also changed the battery
Upon Installing the vehicle no longer starts. It cranks but does not start.
I have checked that fuel is coming in, The plugs are wet with Gas. I checked cylinder 2 while cranking and there seems to be spark ( BLUE) .
I did not check any other leads. Leads I bought were for a mx6 but i thought it should work.
So i have spark / fuel But it still won't start.
I re did the rocket cover and Im not sure what else it could be that it won't start. I Did not touch the timing and have not done a compression test so far.
Also while i re took the intake manifold off, and re did the rocket cover gasket i noticed valves in Cylinder 2 was open and cylinder 1 intake valve was slightly open.
Im not sure how to crank by hand but im guessing this was because of the engine trying to crank.
I have checked the wiring incase a sensor is not recieving " ground " but it seems everything is still grounded and working.
The solenoid for vris was broken ( i have jb welded another on there and it seems fine).
Could the vacuum hoses be wrongfully done? Im out of ideas now, what can I DO ! .
![Sad :(](./images/smilies/icon_sad.gif)
Does anybody have a vacuum hose diagram for the k8 engine ? Im not sure if i need another engine.
I can get a KLDE engine brand new long motor, but I am unsure as to whether my existed k8 parts will bolt right up including harness, ancillaries etc.
PLEASE HELP
