Engine don't start

Post by magflip »

Hello everybody!
I have a problem that is driving me crazy.
Initially I set the MS1 to control only the ignition. Even with the carburetor, the engine starts.
Soon after, I've changed the carburetor for intake manifold with 4 injectors 30lb/h and trying to start the car, but do not get success.
I have not already installed the lambda sensor and the air temperature. The TPS is inverted and so the log shows 0% TPS every time.
I checked the spark plugs and they are flashing. The fuel pump is also being active when I turn the key and during the crank. The only thing I have not tested so far is the pressure in the fuel line, that all other possibilities I've tried...
I tried to start sometimes using a little lubricant spray directly on TBI and those moments the car gave a sign that would start, but it did not work.
For some problem in output from led17 I put the sparkA in the output of Fidle.
Here are the log a start attempts and the msq I'm using.

Hugs!

Fix the air temperature reading; it's showing 40 below zero. Also make sure the coolant temperature is reading right.

I fixed the PW about 8ms for all IAT scale, and the CLT is looking fine.
The engine has not start yet.
