Hmm... So guys Ive changed oil. Let the car sit in the drive way for 15 hours with no plugs. Put new plugs. And still the car cranks with now turn over...

 

my guess, your fmu took a shit. unplug it and and dont use it, see if the car will start and idle without it. i bet it will.

then throw it in the trash and get a better way to control fuel.

 

Wait, what? You mean the EManage EMS piggyback? That's all my kit came with and I could adjust fuel trims and whatnot in that.

Also in regards to the fuel wash. I read up on it a bit but there wasn't much information other that it occurs when you flood the engine or have excess fuel during startup. What does it do exactly and how is it caused? I have a suspicion that I may have some due to the fact that when I pulled my coils and dip stick it wreaked of fuel. This is after I tuned the car and the car was having heavy fuel issues as posted in my thread. Sorry to thread jack OP, just wanted some clarification.

 

"Fuel wash" can be caused several ways, there is no single cause. Unburnt fuel in excess has to go somewhere and that is past the rings and into the bottom end, contaminating the lubrication properties of your oil. You might as well drain your oil and fill it up with water instead becuase that's about how good fuel washed oil works. The OP needs to check that he is getting spark from each cylinder. He likely isn't getting spark on any cylinder or it would start. Even if it was 2 cylinders out it would still try and start. So that tells me there is an issue beyond the plugs and coils. But if he keeps cranking it over without firing, there will likely continue to be fuel dumped into the oil.

 

Hmm.. Thank you S2000Junky... So my buddy a mechanic came over to see the problem. We secured all vacuums so no leaks. We were getting fuel pumped into the system. Everything checked out. We check one plug and it got spark. But we didnt check the others. So i dont know we recorded a video I will post here in about 1 hour.

So thank you all for the advice.

 

I would check at least one other plug for good measure, in the unlikely event you selected the only one that is firing ....in which case your motor wouldn't start. If you have fuel and you have spark to the plugs and it wont fire, then it would seem like a timing issue with the E-manage? Or you have a major restriction in the exhaust/turbo that recently developed for some reason? I'm just throwing out ideas that come to mind.

Yes i did unplug the fmu. Im at 0 boost.
Here is a link to what the car sounds like. I found this video on Youtube and they are saying it could be injectors. I will post my video in a hour. So what do you guys think?

Yep, that sounds like an engine that wont start alright

 

Ha just a basic idea. Lol but he said his engine problem was resolved by new injectors
