immobilizer will allow vehicle to crank and run for 5 sec, if I'm not mistaken.

not realy.

immo cuts fuel not spark.

have you earthed the ECU at the thermostat housing, are you getting an ICM signal from the ECU. is 12v getting to the dizzy via the fat blk/yel wire.

when i did my conversion i had no spark,it was because someone had put the chip in my hondata around the wrong way,so evertime i turned the ignition on the ecu fuse would blow.your circumstances are different,but none the less,cant hurt to check your fuses

G8? havn't heard of that ECU....

sounds like ECU problem related. Check all grounding points.
