WILL NOT START!! Now what???
So I'll give you a quick summary and get straight to the point. We installed a JDM engine in my B13, and when we went to start the car, it started right up and sounded fine. The motor ran for a bit, but we did not drive the car because we needed to bleed the brakes. A few days later, we went to start the car up again, and this time the car seriously struggled to start. And when it finally did it barely maintained idle, and had a HORRIBLE stench of really bad gas. The following day, the car finally decided to give up and we were no longer able to get it started.
Based on the disgusting, pungent smell we were getting from the gas, we assumed it was a case of old, bad gas, as the car sat for some time before I purchased it. We filled the tank up with fresh gas, changed the fuel filter and replaced the fuel injectors, along with continuously cleaning off the fuel-soaked spark plugs, but are still unsuccessful. We also checked the fuel pump and replaced the screen, and nothing!
We're at a serious point of frustration and have eliminated all the possibilities. Someone help us out!!!
