i need help with a b20vtec

[b20vtecrr]

i got a 4dr integra and i just put a b20vtec in it brand new its got 1100 miles on it. i drove it to ia it broke down i found oil in the distributor i bought a new one and still it will not crank. i dont know what the problem is can anyone help:thinking:

[punkr6]

do you have
1-fuel
2-spark
3-air
4-compression

Whats it do when you turn the key ? Lots more info needed...

[SUBY_RUE]

Did you put the plug wires on the dizzy in the correct order? I have seen this before, people make a mistake and put them in the wrong firing order. Thats why I ask lol...

[lanning]

we left to go out of town and made it to nashville about a 2 hour drive and it did fine then left to go to ia the next morning and it made it about 15 minutes down the road

[SUBY_RUE]

Does it have aftermaket cam gears?

[lanning]

honestly im not sure, i dont think so

[SUBY_RUE]

Hmm, pull a plug wire and see if it has a spark when trying to start it.

[lanning]

its my friend that owns the car, he needs to get back on here

[SUBY_RUE]

Have you tried pulling the ecu fuse and checking if its blown? Doing that will also reset it...

[lanning]

i think all he has done is tried a new distributor

[b20vtecrr]

all the plug wires and plugs are new

[SUBY_RUE]

. turn the key to the on position, listen for the fuel pump
. check for spark
. make sure the plug wires are in the correct firing order
. check fuses
. check the rotor button

[jdm>usdm]

Aw damn dude still havent got it fixed? :(



Too bad the bitch didnt just run outa gas like you originally thought.lol

[b20vtecrr]

got fire compression and all that it just turns over with nothing where is the ecu fuse cuz i checkd all the fuses under dash and engine bay

[lanning]

Too bad the bitch didnt just run outa gas like you originally thought.lol
that was funny as hell we were all like oh ok its just out of gas

[SUBY_RUE]

Its located under the hood, normally its a 20amp fuse.

[b20vtecrr]

exactly i wish it was out of gas

[b20vtecrr]

well ima go take a look and see if its a fuse i didnt see an ecu fuse tho last time i checked

[b20vtecrr]

i mean what else could it be if not the fuse?????????? im lost it cant be blown bc of the way it died it was bogging down

[jdm>usdm]

well ima go take a look and see if its a fuse i didnt see an ecu fuse tho last time i checked


Yeah bro check all of your fuses first. Be positive that your fuel pump is coming on when you turn the key as far as you can before the starter begins to turn the motor over. Sometimes main relays just decide to go bad and not turn the fuel pump on.

[b20vtecrr]

the fuel pump def comes on i loosend it a fuel spewd out as did the fuel rail

[b20vtecrr]

is there a fuse specifically for ecu cuz i havent ever seen one

[SUBY_RUE]

Yeah, its under the hood. there should be a diagram on the fuse box cover.

[b20vtecrr]

alright im gonna go check it out when i get home thanks alot dude ill let you know tomorrow on here what goes down

[SUBY_RUE]

[VickNotic]

so it turns over and it dont do jacK???

1. check compression
2. check timing
3. check dizzy ignitor
4. check all wires that it's hooked on correctly on ears of dizzy & ignitor

[SUBY_RUE]

MAYBE timing jumped

Thats possible, lets hope not though lol.

[b20vtecrr]

man i totally didnt see that fuse in there im at work but i didnt see one labeled ecu weeiirrdd my dad seems to think its internal cuz when it turns over it just wobbles ahahahahha like a death wobble but nothin is gone bc of the way it died it didnt blow up

[SUBY_RUE]

Well without beeing there its hard to tell what the problem may be.

[b20vtecrr]

i know man shit sucks a fat one

[SUBY_RUE]

Im sure its something simple lol. GL...

[lanning]

i know man, i will still suck a fat one
fixed for robby

[b20vtecrr]

dude i hope it is

[Z0_o6]

did you replace the distributor with a new one? was it a KNOWN working one? you are obviously missing ONE of the necessary elements, if you had spark, fuel, and compression it would run. you need to find out which one you are missing.

[b20vtecrr]

man i bought a brand new distributor and cap the rotor button is the only used part from the one that went bad would that matter though????

[b20vtecrr]

no go guys and there is no ecu fuse in the engine bay fuse box :/

[Turbodude06]

well ima go take a look and see if its a fuse i didnt see an ecu fuse tho last time i checked

The ecu fuse is actually a back-up-radio fuse, its usually on a honda under the hood. One of the fuses closes to the firewall:goodjob:

[JDMteg08]

i thought the fuse was under the dash. it should be two fuses by each other

[Turbodude06]

i thought the fuse was under the dash. it should be two fuses by each other

The one I've always used to reset the ecu's on honda's are under the hood, by the battery...............

[b20vtecrr]

yea bro i gotta back up radio fuse dunno why it doesnt just say ecu look up earlier in this post dude sent me a link with a picture of a fuse display panel and it actually says ecu what the hell is that off of?????

[JDMteg08]

the is a ecu fuse under my dash i take a picture and show you. it also says it on the fuse cover

[b20vtecrr]

alright sounds good

[CaTcH22]

Prolly didnt jump timing if the compression is good. Did you check for codes?? Does the check engine light go off or stay on while you are cranking it?? Sounds like a dizzy problem.

[SUBY_RUE]

Is your ecu obd1?

[b20vtecrr]

obd2 integra type r ecu ive tried my p75 ls ecu (i know its not vtec) ive tried p72 gsr ecu

[b20vtecrr]

i dont know if it has jumped time or not man its got a brand new dizz except for the rotor button idk if that matters or not

[b20vtecrr]

all i know is the plugs and wires and dizz is new and there is NO FIRE AT ALL!! IIIII DOOOO NNOOOTT GGEETTT ITTTT!!!

[Barefoot]

pm sent i need cliffs

[ls-r teg]

jumped timing? maybe even bent a valve?

[CaTcH22]

Theres a ground near the t-stat housing, make sure its good, clean, and tight.

[SUBY_RUE]

all i know is the plugs and wires and dizz is new and there is NO FIRE AT ALL!! IIIII DOOOO NNOOOTT GGEETTT ITTTT!!!

Here is a thought, set your motor to TDC and then take off your dizzy cap and make sure your rotor button is pointed at the number one plug. If its not pointed at number one, that means your firing order is not right... try that and see if that fixes the problem...
