1994 Accord will not start
I recently installed a used tranny in my 1994 accord LX non vtech, but the vehicle would not start even though it would crank. At first i realized I had not spark, even after replacing spark plugs, wire cables, rotor, rotor cap , and a new coil. Engine light would stay on once I turned the key to the "ON" position.
I removed the main relay and re-soldered all the connections . I now have spark and the engine light goes off after 2 seconds with the key in the "ON" position and also the fuel pump kicks in. I've tested the fuel pressure and all is OK, but the car will not start despite having spark and fuel pressure. I also have a new battery. What could be the problem? ECU maybe? Thanks and any help would be appreciated. |
Did you happen to check the main ground on the end of the tb?

I just checked the main ground and even added some more grounds from the negative terminal to the engine and to the chassis, but that did not change anything. It still will not start. Anyone?

Turn the key to the II position. Unplug the electrical connector to the injector and check that you have 12V on the red/blk wire going to it.

How are you testing for spark? Do you have a timing light?

I had the weirdest problem after I changed my transmission, it would not start either.
I ended up spraying a bit of starter fluid in the intake and it started right up. It has worked perfectly since. Why it didn't want to start, I will never know. Give it a try. Let us know what happens after you spray a bit of starting fluid. |
