Miatas hate me
Ok howdy
I recently rebuild my engine in my 99 with a donor block off an older miata
It ran before i pulled it in and now she dosn't want to start.
Its getting spark, getting fuel, compression (around 150 in all cylinders), and i checked timing about 5 times, its dead on. It backfires and hickups but dosn't want to start.

i reused the oil pump, so i had to grind the nub and drill and tap a hole for the crank sensor.
99 crank position sensor mount differences - Spec Miata Garage - Mazda Racers
if im reading this thread right its saying to use an adjustable cam wheel so i can set my timing because the hole is a little different locations then the newer style oil pumps?
any advice would be awsome im really stumped:bowrof l:

Timing is set, i had another person verify this
It cranks good with a charger on it, i don't think a starter would cause backfire
Didn't touch the injector harness, only rebuild the bottom end
The wires are in the right firing order, i also changed the wires
Exact same setup, just rebuild the bottom end. Same everything
timing is off somehow?

This post says "the tooth that indicates CYL1 is actually 10degBTDC making it possible to set base timing using a scope."
There are 4 teeth on the crank sensor wheel, which tooth represents cyl #1?
Thanks for all the replies, somebody does love me
