Any CELs?
HNNNNGGG dat sound!
Just did a compression Test last night, and they come out quite ok except for Cylinder 1.
CYLINDER 1- 125 PSI
CYLINDER 2 - 155 PSI
CYLINDER 3 - 155 PSI
Stock compression Ratio is at 10:1 so guestimate when it's new should be arround 180-190 psi.
Not bad for a 23 year old engine.
So narrowed down to the distributor that is faulty. I have a couple of check light last time which I couldn't clear it.
One of them is the TDC sensor and the other is the No 1 Cyl sensor
Just FYI I do have sparks, the Coil is external, not inside the distributor.
Took the whole distributor assembly out the other day, and it does convince me that the distributor pick up point / the TDC sensor is rooted.
it was full of rust and overall wasn't in such a good condition. I did a clean on it, with contact cleaner and WD40. I might have made it worst LOL...
So my guess is that the ignition timing is sparking at totaly wrong timing and that why it doesn't wants to turn over.
I do have a replacement part for the whole distributor assembly, but it wouldn't come for another month as is was put together with other parts that i bought and it's inside a container that my mate bringing in to Perth.
I also have a spare b16 engine/box set up that needs to be assembled, so mean while i probably just finish the b16 and get it all together before is start pulling appart the current engine that is in The Beat as I wanted to wait for the new replacement distributor to come and then check if the current distributor is the culprit.
Also ditch those bosch plugs please
Youre car's engine ignition system was designed with ngks not bosch crap
Bosch is best
LMAO
My bad guise
A guy in Melbourne had a CEL with his beat because something was up with his timing as well. Hope you find out whats wrong with your motor soon.
