Pairs are correct, but if Rafa had the two switched in his car, then you'll want to switch them in yours.....what's the worst that could happen?

Either your spark plugs are firing wrong, or else your injectors are - gotta start somewhere

The car f'ing started...I physically switched the coil 1 for the coil 2 trigger on the harness and it started. So now that everything is "backwards" its great!

I have another issue though...that might be worse then the first one... may be a new thread coming up for this one...
The is a knocking noise in the brand new block that is installed in my car once it started.
The knocking noise gets louder as the RPMs increase.
It goes away COMPLETELY once the clutch is pressed in.
Even if I put my foot on the clutch just a tiny little bit, its gone. Its quite loud with my foot off of it though.
I could adjust my clutch pedal and have it go away, but thats probably not a good idea.

I would like to quote my very first post in this thread for posterity:



Congrats on getting the car running! As far as your sound, you may want to tell us what the clink clink sounds like. Fortunately, it's not in your newly rebuilt block, it is something in your transmission bellhousing. Either a bad bearing, something rolling around inside, something broke off, etc., etc. Is the noise rhythmic (clank.....clank.....clank.....clank.....) or arhythmic (clank.....clank clank..clank.......................clank.....clank ..............clank)?

you were right all along! I'm indebted to you! Thank you every so much!

The noise is rhythmic and follows the engine rpm. The higher the rpm...the louder the noise is. It doesn't sound like a throw out bearing and goes way even if my foot is only slightly on the clutch.

metallic? loud? video or audio clip? Confirm it's coming from bellhousing/transmission area? Change frequency with gears?

You've got oil in the engine, right?

hahahaha!

Thanks for everything fooger.

I´m sure it´s related to the clutch this time.

Now that's a problem I can deal with. It's a brand new fm level 2 clutch kit and flywheel installed in the car
