Alright, so I got done swapping in a b16a from hmotors into my hatch. But for some reason it wont start.

Its getting spark, its getting fuel thru the fuel rail.

Car will start with starting fluid, but die after it runs out.

Checked my CELs and I threw 6 and 41

Switched a few plugs and then I threw 6 10 and 41

After resetting the ECU im only throwing 6 and 10 again.

I read that 6 is for the ECT, 10 for the IAT, and 41 is for an 02 sensor.

Would the ECT cause the motor not to start?

What ECU are you using?

Check that your fuel injectors are plugged in properly and in the correct order. Also check your fuel pressure.

Start the engine. Measure the fuel pressure with the engine idling and vacuum hose of the fuel pressure regulator disconnected from the fuel pressure regulator and pinched.Pressure should be 40-47 psi. Reconnect vacuum hose to the fuel pressure regulator. Pressure should be 31-38 psi.

If you can't get the car to start to check fuel pressure, turn the ignition switch on, wait for two seconds, turn it off, then back on again and read the fuel pressure. It should be between 40-47 psi.

Im using the p30 that came with it. I tried starting it on my old chipped p72, still didnt work.

Car still wouldnt start to check fuel pressure. Its at 48 on both when priming, 40 when cranking. Fuel injectors are wired correctly

Also got rid of code 6

check and make sure you dont have some plugs mixed up ie: iacv plugged in to iat or map plugged in to tps.

What did you do to get rid of code 6?

This. If your using an OBD1 EX/Si/VTEC engine harness, these are the wire colors to look for.

-The IACV Plug has BLU/YEL and YEL/BLK wires.

-The IAT Plug has RED/YEL and GRN/WHT wires.

-The TPS Plug has YEL/WHT, RED/BLU and GRN/WHT wires.

-The MAP Plug has WHT, YEL/RED and GRN/WHT wires.

And check to make sure to check your grounds too. There should be one from the valve cover to the core support, one from the transmission case to the passenger side frame, and one on the thermostat housing. Make sure they are tight and that none of the wires are damaged.

Cleared code 6 by replacing the ect.

All grounds are rechecked and good. those 4 wires were correct other that the iat.

But now I discovered by pulling the injectors out of the motor, but still connected to the fuel rail, while cranking the motor the injectors dont spray. but ith injectors unplugged, the second I prime it fuel pours from the rail
