GSR Swap starting problems

[snowflake09]

So about two weeks ago I went to crank my car and it turned over a few times then started sounding like the starter was spinning freely. The motor turns when I try to start it but its just a smooth turning, no hiccup at all like its trying to start. Since then I have checked the spark fuel and spark, it is getting both just fine. I laid the spark plug across the engine and there was spark, I also went ahead and replaced the coil and stuff just in case. I tried jumping it off just to give it a little more juice but got nothing. I loosened the bolt from the fuel filter and turned on the ignition and fuel sprayed everywhere like it should. Ive also checked every fuse and they are all god. Im at a loss so any help at all would be great. Thanks.

Check compression..

Just did a compression test. It would turn over and read nothing, then after a few seconds of that it would blow what looks like exhaust out of the intake and read 25psi. Did the same thing on every cylinder.

you can pull your plugs out and identify the valves incase the valves might be stuck open or do a leak test

There is your problem, you have no compression.. Now figure out why, a leak down will tell you without pulling head, but that's the route you will end up.. Also, be sure the timing belt is spinning both cams, and also check the timing marks to be sure it hasn't jumped time.. My guess would be it jumped time and bent some valves.. :(

I saw an LS do almost the same symptoms, turned out to be firing order/Dizzy.

bent valves and or bad timing would be my guess

The firing order is fine and I put a new coil in the dizzy when this first started so idk.

Just told you... Beleave it or not!! Ether the timing is way off or it has bent valves:doh:

Update on the car: I put the new coil, plugs, rotor button, and cap. Now the fire on the plugs is white like it is supposed to be and the car is trying to crank. It turns over good now BUT everytime it tries to crank its blowing white smoke out of the intake. I got all of the gas that was backed up in the intake out and it is still doing the same thing.

u have jummped time check ur timming belt!!!!!! if it is set up right u have a bent valve..

[snowflake09]

Did the timing belt, it was way out of timing like everyone said. lol But I got it dialed in with the light and all. Now the issue is a very hard idle and a 2500 rpm fuel cut......hmmm
