No Start

Post by Slappy924 »

Hi All,
I'm new to the site, I have an 06 Baja sport, and I did the dreaded JDM 2.0 swap after destroying my second 2.5 motor. I did the recommended swap outs, crankshaft pulley, both camshaft pulleys, went to Subaru dealer and purchased new crank and camshaft sensors. Set the timing marks, checked and rechecked. It's getting fuel but no spark, coil pack checked out OK on the multi-meter, even swapped that out with the first motor I destroyed. Think I've watched every you tube video on swapping a JDM engine. I'm stuck, anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Just wondering.. you did swap the ECU, right?

Fuel is ez, just power the relay.. Ignition.. not so much; signal comes from the ECU directly to the pack. So if the pack/wires/plugs are good.. I would say ECU issue or wiring change due to the 2.0 from 2.5 swap. I do think there is some wiring involved with that swap.. never done one tho, so could be wrong.

Just an Idea, not sure how far into it you are and what all was done. :)
