Default Car wont start :(

Hi all,

I've fitting my rebuilt engine but it want start. it will turn over but not fire. But if I remove the No.1 coil pack and spark plug it will fire and run for a very short time then die. Why is this?

Does anyone have a standard ecu for an 95 wrx so that I can borrow it to use it to fault find?

Cheers
Chris

Do you have a spare coil pack to use chris, I'm just wondering if its damaged and the ecu is recognising this and stop's this to do any possible damage to the engine.

Sorry to hear this Chris, hope you get it sorted mate. Maybe a call To David or Andy on Monday could shed some light on the problem.
