Ok guys I have no where else to turn and im running out of ideas quick.
Some background info:
My 88 k5 project started when I bought it and it had a no reverse, a rusted freeze plug and a blown 10 bolt rear. Well like all gus in my situation I decieded that to fix these problems and leave it all stock was a waste of money. I pulled the motor to replace all the freeze plugs with brass, pulled the pan to check mains and rods for wear as well as to replace the oil pump for peace of mind. I also swaped the water pump for a new oem unit as well as the timing chain for a cloyes double roller. Other than that I did not change anything and the engine ran just fine b4 I pulled it just dumped coolant out the block due to the freeze plug. Well I put it off to the side and did my 1 ton swap and pulled the tranny and t case in favor of a fresh 700r4w/ corvette servo and a twin sticked np205.
Well now that I have completed the one ton swap and preformed all the nesscary repairs. I am back to engine. I drop it back it back and hooked everything back up. I have checked all my wires and have started try and hget it run. I at first had teh timing gear installed wrong and fixed that problem. Then i wasnt able to get anything to work period. I had the ign. module checked and sure enough the auto parts store said its bad. I replaced it and began attemptin to set the timing. I wasnt getting a strong spark it seem so I decied to replace the coil. Now i could get it to almost bust off and was finnaly able to get it run for about 20 seconds with almost no idle and a very un healthy sound. I had pulled the distributor twice to verify timing just to make sure and as well good. Well fast forward 2 weeks due to the constant rain weve had here. I finnaly get another day to wrench, I pull the tarp off and procedee to start where I left off . i get it stumble for a second then nothing until i eventually kill the brand new optimia yellow top i have. I scored a d4 from a friend and stuck it in still no luck. I have verified fuel as well as spark. I also pulled the timin wire(tan/white stripe) to atempt to set base timin to zero but i stll can get it to fire. Any ideas guys?
As it was when I bought it
A week later
backs done
All the projects...
As it sits now..
Any help would be greatly apperciated. Im new to efi and tryin to learn all I can... I have everything I need to swap over to a carb but I want it emission legal since this will be my dd till next summer.
