Skyline Built Not Starting

[perzn_34]

Hey guys so i haven't had this car for long. Its a 1994 s1 r33 gtst with a built motor td06 turbo etc etc.

i did a compression test last week numbers came out good, and then i did a wet compression test with adding oil in each cylinder individually. I put about half a oil bottle cap worth for each cylinder.

After that put everything back together, then started the car and alot of white smoke came out which im guessing is normal from the oil in the cylinders. I took it for a spin around the block and white smoke was still coming out but less and kept getting less. i then took it in the garage and turned it off. didnt touch it for a week.

So after a week i came to start the car and it wouldnt start, it cranks but wont turn on. Fuel lines have pressure but just wont run.

i thought maybe my spark plgs are stuffed from the oil so put new ones and still the same

I have split fires, i pulled one out put a screw driver in it and put it near the head and no sparks, so i know there is no power going to my coils. Note this is a s1 r33 with the ignitor on top of the motor at the back.

So what i dont understand is the car was turned off and not touched for a week and this happens, obviously nothing has been touched..

SO i know its a power issue, anyone can help or give advice??? PLSS

btw ecu is a haltech pro plug and play

Have run into this issue in the past with s1 rb lol exact same issues.

If you can get your hand in a stock ecu plug it in see if it will fire.

That's what it ended up being for me the ecu buggered out on me.

Checked fuses ?

I couldnt find any relevant fuses. The ones in the boot are just for lights etc the engine bay fuse box any particular one i need to check?

ill hookup the stock ecu tonight hopefully not that as I like my haltech

Couldn't be the alarm draining battery over time?

Mine (32 gtst) would only last 4 days being switched off before it trickled the juice from the battery.

I'd check the fuses in the engine bag again..

In particular anything related to engine cont... Or fuel pump related .

Can you smell fuel as in is it definitely getting fuel when cranking ?

[perzn_34]

My battery is fine.. but I know I dont have spark.. I can hear the fuel pump and the fuel hoses have fuel in them but not sure if injectors are actually injecting or not. Anyway to find out? Cant really smell fuel

Take the CAS out and spin it (ignition on, of course). Listen for injectors pulsing. Can also use it to (try to) convince the coils to fire.

CAS plug in properly, not loose?

[WMDC35]

checked the earths?

[GTScotT]

As said did you forget to reconnect the earths?

Are you sure you have enough battery voltage?

It is very common for aftermarket ECU's not to pulse ignition drivers when they have low voltage. Sounds simple regardless of what it ends up being.

[fatz]

yup check cranking volts please

[Crans]

Are your plugs stuffed up from all that oil?

Yeah didn't read the whole post did I

Check the earth for the ignitor.

There is a ignition coil distributor in the S1 skylines. Check the wiring on that and make sure this part is working. I had same problem few years ago and that turned out to be the issue.

+1 coil pack ignitor on S1's fail easily.

yea im not sure how to diagnose if this is working or not. any way to check it?

[GTSBoy]

The easy way (and really, the only reliable way seeing as they fail when loaded and hot) is swaptronics with a known good one.
