Just recently swapped my motor with a 94-95 jdm engine, due to my previous engine over boosting and bending a rod from the signal line to the WG popping/breaking off.

put the engine in, connected all the connectors. car will turn over but will not start. what could be wrong? i do not think i am getting any spark. i am using the same engine map that used previously that started up and idled very well. What could be causing me to not have spark? are there any grounds i could have possibly missed? i can here the fuel pump priming and i believe i have fuel. Thanks.

1. Verify no spark while cranking
2. Verify injectors firing
3. Report which one is not there.

there is no spark. i do not believe there is fuel either because the plugs are not wet right after trying to start

i now have spark.... the wires were not going into the coil pack all the way.... the plugs smell of gas but are not wet

Maybe try some new plugs

wouldn't the plugs be wet if i was getting required fuel for start up? maybe im just smelling old fuel..... ill try new plugs the iridiums in my old motor are fairly new i will swap those in though just to eliminate possibilities...
