help, sr20 wont start - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

HellaSexyS13 · 09-22-2011, 02:31 PM

so im done with my s14 sr20 swap and i turn the key and the motor turns over but it wont start. the fuel pump is not priming or pumping so that has to be the probelm,
the fuel pump fuse is still good
not sure how to check to see if the egi relays (for fuel pump) are good or not

what could the problem be

HellaSexyS13 · 09-22-2011, 05:33 PM

so none of the relays in the passenger side fuse box are getting any power, or the fuse box in general. also the 75a ALT fuse was blown, this shouldnt have an effect on the box getting power

check to see if your getting power to the fuel pump with a DMM. if your getting power bad fuel pump. if your not getting power back track and find out where it stops with the wire schematic.

clutch.. pump your brakes.. start the car with the brakes held. i usually don't start my car with the brakes but i have a separate source to turnover the fuel pump separately.. and the brakes drain your alternator... or you need a ecu reset.. to reopen the fuel map if you burnt oil before you park

well the egi and egi pump relays are not clicking when i turn the key to acc, so that is where the problem is i assume, the fuel pump is brand new too

HellaSexyS13 · 09-23-2011, 12:57 PM

using a multimeter, i removed the two egi relays and with the key on i put the red poker or whatever you wanna call it in the plug and the black on a ground screw and they both show power, would this mean its just the relays being dead or what?

sr20 swap in your s14 you say?

what was in there before? i went from a kouki n/a sr to sr20det and had to get a power to the ecu first (thats why my fuel pump wasnt priming...) and then had to get a supply to the coilpacks

think its similar for a sr into a ka s14 swap

hope this helps, clive

in a s14 sr into a s13, had a ka in there, the ecu has a red light that turns on when i turn the key, the relays in the drivers side fuse box click but not the ones in the passenger side box
