my first ever engine swap...selfie

[TypeR snooze]

i have a 91 b16a i changed all the seals gaskets this engine didnt come with a crank sensor so i had to swap the one that came in the b16a2 to the b16a. im running a obd2a engine harness and a obd2b ecu with the adapter of course. the check engine light does not come on at all. the fuel pump wont prime and the starter wont even turn over. im not good with electrical at all. please help guys i need sum honda gurus on my sideline.

Electrical is part of swap, if you don't know then send it to a shop..

Come help me out.. :P

Really tho, no light can mean a couple of things.. ECU no power, cause: Blown fuse, bad ground, or Main relay.

So, check and double check connections, including ground wires, and fuses..

A test light/power probe is everyone's best friend!!

i bet its the tranny ground wire

i bet its the tranny ground wire

that would really suck, but it's normally something simple.. Folks just over look things!

Thermostat ground....................

I usually try hitting random shit with a hammer. Sadly hasnt worked once yet.

Thermostat ground....................

Yes. So many people overlook this.

it was the ground wires that i overlooked. i got em on now one to the therm one to the tranny and one on the valve cover. simple yup but now im getting a check engine light and the car doesnt want to stay on. check engine light...plugged in the obd2 machine and it gave me crank position sensor. i changed that out but it still wont stay on.i know im getting fuel all the way to the fuel rail cuz the fuel pump primes and the fuel pressure reads at 35-40. when i spray starter fluid in the throttle it turns on all the way but dies out when i stop spraying. i did get those injectors from a single overhead at the junk yard. i think those injectors are no good cuz there to small. or their duds. i didnt check the ohms on them before i got em, just slapped them on. so im getting new injectors from advance auto just because i want em right away instead of waiting for them online.

Wtf, use oe Honda injectors if it's a stock ecu!

They're cheap.

Hell I have an extra set if you need some.
