M42 conversion non starter, Help please
Posted: Sat Oct 31, 2009 4:29 pm
Have just done the e30 m42 swap to my car and currently have no spark, and the fuels not getting past the injectors,
Have checked the resistance of the crank position sensor and its reading 524 ohms. Have also waved a spanner in front of it and the resistance changes by around 200 ohms.
All earths are tight and I have used a jump lead to create another earth from the engine.
The cam shaft position sensor is reading 1200 ohms,
Fuel is getting to the rail but is not getting past the injectors.
The fuel is not constantly pumping but is pulsing when I crank the engine and is building up pressure,
After spending copious amounts of money on this car I am almost at breaking point now and dont want to keep cashing out, and I need the car for work and it's been off the road for a week whilst ive been attempting the swap.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks
Matt
