Merry Christmas to me. Stealth won't start.

[jonezj]

Car has been running great since motor mount, old DR650 install several months ago. Other than some smoking which I am suppressing with a front krank vent and a cat.

Go to move some stuff around in the garage and then put the Stealth away for Christmas vacation. Started backing it in the drive (on incline) and I killed it. Then it won't start. I leave it for a few hours, try again and still nothing.

Checked fuel pressure on my ninja gauge and it looks good. Spark plugs are only a few thousand miles and a year old. The starter cranks but engine won't fire. So not the click start issue.

Should be troubleshooting PTU and other spark issues now I suppose but I'm getting on a plane in 30 hours for a month away.

Bah humbug

What year is your car? And did you check the MFI relay? Do you have a spare computer?

93. Didn't check MFI yet.. Running chromed v2 ecu. No spares. One of very few on the island so..

Someone correct me if I am wrong, it has been a while, but isn't there a fuse for ignition? Im pretty sure there is. Had you checked all fuses?

Thanks for your help again, Evan. I'm on a plane shortly and won't be back with the car to check it out until early February. Hate leaving her like that.

Well, good luck. I know I have had to leave mine at points like this too. Let us know when and if you figure something out.

CAS, MFI Relay, or a broken wire most likely

Same issue as another thread I posted about a no-start issue but wanted to close this one out as well.
Checked all timing. Was on. Tried a second mfi relay, no change. Changed out for new oem plug wires and new plugs. Checked spark on each was good.
The ecu was grounding out if in contact with any metal on the case. I noticed that I couldnt connect to the ecu via Evo scan and started poking around in the underdash wiring. Car suddenly started when the ecu was resting on the floormat and not mounted. Wrapped ecu partially in a non conducive insulating foam and shoved it in place without bolting it in. Problem solved.
These cars... Smh

I have a grounding issue somewhere apparently... Lol
