    Default Cant get car started!

    Yo fellas,

    As you know i just done a blacktop 20v conversion.

    Its bolted up perfect, it cranks over but doesnt want to start. Its never been run in rwd platform and is running on a new ecu with a base map.

    Though i think i already have cut down to my problem and this being fuel, i dont think my fuel pump is working.

    Is there anyway i connect it or check to see if it is the case?

    Cheers

    unplug the feed fuel hose from the fuel pump. switch it on, and stand BACK pew pew pewpew pew pew pew fuel everywhere means winner.

    probably don't do that. but it might be a little bit funny.

    Your fuel pump is still probably connected via the old FCOR right? If that's the case, it should start breefly but die straight away (fcor has two triggers, one from original ecu and one from starter motor wire - pumps fuel when cranking). The fuel pump wire will be a blue/black wire on the FCOR.
