Installed rebuilt engine, now it wont run

[kybray44]

checked wires, they are all the way they should be.

injector seated good, I made sure my distributor seated down and then install the bolt through the flange. The wire all look good, no gouges or anything.

are you sure that the 1 cylinder was at TDC on compression and rotor pointed to the 5 oclock position

 

[kybray44]

Yea, I just checked it and at TDC, the rotor is at the 5 oclock position.

send it back. did you take it out of the vehicle? it starting but bogs on accelerated? map,tps connected

 

[89xj]

good point, check that the tps is adjusted proprly and that the MAP vacuum line is connected correctly on the MAP sensor and at the throttle body.

in the dark, i accidently connected the MAP vacuum line to the bolt under the MAP and not to the vacuum port under the MAP.

 

[kybray44]

MAP is where it needs to be. How would i check if the TPS is adjusted properly?

the same conditions happened to me on a motor swap once when the injectors were hooked up wrong. the vehicle wasn't a jeep, but it might be something you could double check pretty easily.

Wow you have me stumped now my friend. Falls on its face under throttle, may possibly be a vacumn leak of sorts on the intake side.. The manifold all bolted down correctly? EGR hooked up? It really sounds like a vacumn issue now.. Man I wish I was closer, I would drive up and give you a hand, so hard to diagnose over the computer..

see how many psi you are getting on the fuel rail. Pull a plug and see if flooded or lean. Same year motor?

 

[kybray44]

Checked compression and they are as follows:

1 - 150
2 - 120
3 - 60 (Dry) 70 (Wet)
4 - 120
5 - 120
6 - 120

Looks like a valve is fooked, so much for buying a drop in rebuilt... FML

What should compression be at? 150?

 

[JJacobs]

At sea level on a new engine I'd be looking for 150ish, yes.

Fack, anyone ever dealt with evergreen engines in washington?
