Baffled, won't start??
 
Ok, I just completed my new turbo setup and already I'm having some issues. For some odd reason the car will not start. I've been reading through some other posts on the same issue but with no luck. It was running just fine the other day while I doing some logging, but now it just cranks, but will not start. I have checked all sensors/relay/fuses and they all work fine and I just recently put new plugs in. Car ran fine for a couple of days, and then one morning it just quit starting all of a sudden. Going to pick up a new ing relay tomorrow just for giggles, does anybody have any other ideas what could be wrong? :confused:

how is fuel pressure ?

crank sensor? Mine did the same thing, tried everything, then I thought well it might be the crank sensor and sure enough it was. Hard to know what it could be.

Check the wiring to the crank sensor, lose that & the fuel pump shuts off.....or should I say check your fuel pressure. :confused:

Fuel pressure is good, 58-62 psi. I logged the crank signal and it was definatley pulsing, I watched the engine rpm go up while I was cranking, the cam also sensor has a good signal. I don't have any CEL's at all.
The only reading I was not getting was coil mis-fires, they were all zero. I was thinking that I should at least get something if the they were working. I was contemplating on changing the plugs out again, just in case they were fouled from all the cranking while trying to get this thing tuned.

check the starter relay in the fuse box.I had to trace that down awhile back.As soon as i swapped it all was well.

Check all of your grounds to see if anything might have shook loose.
