HELP HELP Just finished k8 swap but wont turn over
HEY HELP ME! lol I just swapped my K8 and it will turn over but will not start. When it turning over it is making a squeeking noise from one of the cylnders. Any one have any ideas?!? engine was sitting for a couple of months but i doubt that hurt it.

Re: HELP HELP Just finished k8 swap but wont turn over
did you hook your fuel lines up correctly? not backwards? are your spark plug wires in the correct firing order?

Re: HELP HELP Just finished k8 swap but wont turn over
I am going to check the fule lines in the moring but i belive they are connected correctly. I also belive the spark plugs are in the correct firing order. I almost seems like it is not getting fule. also this engine has not been ran for about a year. I know the fuel pump works. I do not have the exhaust hooked up as well at the o2 sensors but i dont belive that will make a difference. I am going to check the compressions in the cyl as well if i am even getting a spark.

I think a mouse may of crawled into one of the cylinders. Don't laugh, it's possible.evomx wrote: When it turning over it is making a squeeking noise from one of the cylnders.

I know you believe that you understand what you think I said but I'm sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.
