    get new main relay

    I tried that a while back, but nothing happened. I'd be a little hesitant to buy another and try it since they dont let you return them and they're $80. If someone has one and would let me try it, i'd be willing to compensate for their time and effort.

    It did start and sputter a few times but then i changed plugs and put the new 3bar map on and it wont do anything now. It does have compression and i know the cam timing is on since TintMasters set it for me like a week and a half ago...

          Yes its boosted and the 3 bar is wired correctly. Its running Crome, i have spark, i have fuel. It used to sputter and idle around 200rpm, but die once i gave it gas. Now it doesn't even attempt to fire.

              well it has been sitting forever so bad gas is likely.

              also i would ad maybe your base map is just way the eff off. you never know

                      It is sposed to be 16* btdc and you need a timing light to set it correctly, but it should idle if it is close.

                              The dizzy won't go 180* off on a honda, unless obviously the cams or tdc was off.

                                how about wires backwards then..

                                wasn't sure about that. That import shit is wasy too complicated for me..

                                If I cannot work on it with a pair of plyers, a couple screwdrivers, a pipewrench and a bfh I won't touch it.

                                        I know, I was just saying that it's been done before.. and the car i'm talking bout wasnt a bad timing job, it happend to jump belt that far or something like that... I'm sure if kyle did the timing it'd have been done right.

                                          still not workin 😞

                                          If someone is truly confident in their skill at gettin shit to work, give me a call and you can try your hand at it. The lucky winner to get it to run gets no less than $100 cash.

                                          ...just a little incentive 😛
