I'm trying to get the newly overhauled 2.0L Type IV engine started for the first time. I know I have fuel pressure and spark. I have not pulled a spark plug yet to see if I have fuel in the cylinders, but I suspect that the FI system is not powered so the injectors aren't firing.
I won't be able to work on this again until Monday and I'll be spending some time with the wiring diagrams between now and then, but I figured it was worth asking here for some pointers of things to check. I've got a brand new Bowlsby ignition wiring harness. Besides the engine cranking, but never even coughing (much less firing), the only other indication I have is that I have no oil pressure indicator light. I've checked all the ignition and FI harness connections, including the trigger points and the grounds under the air filter. Anyone got any ideas?
