*edit*
problem solved
broken valves and replaced head
check out the new videos

heres my 99 eclipse GSX not starting. just cranks and cranks. its got spark, and fuel. i didn't do a compression test yet. what does this sound like to you? at the end the battery gets low. its not the battery because i replaced it with a new one. you can hear popping sounds its from the exhaust. no smoke coming out of it.

things i have done so far:
changed ecu
pour gas into the cylinders (no start)
cleaned TB (no start)
checked all IC pipes
checked everything.
checked all sensors.
not throwing CEL.

heres my mods:
greddy type s bov
greddy SMIC hard pipes
injen intake
3" full turbo back

  • did you find out what it was....I have a Evo III back home and had a similar problem....it wud start and die out...turned out to be the (MAF) mass airflow sensor...if its not fixed by now...try changing it

  • Yes, it's fixed. Thanks for the tip. It wasn't the MAF. I found out I had bent and broken valves.

  • hmoob: Could be the altenator because when you start it... it slowly drains down. Did you try push start yet if it's a stick!  I would have to be there to see for myself!

  • haha. well its not any of those. i found out that i had broken and bent valves. replacing those when i get new ones in the mail. i am upgrade turbo also. im going to run the 14b turbo.

  • crank sensor or it could be your CAS

  • its getting spark. and fuel. but i did pour fuel into the cyliders and it didnt start..

see all

  • well the easy to fix cars that dont start is put a rag in the gas tank and light it up...

  • @tkhaab thats only going to put gasoline in your oil...

  • Cam sensor or knock sensor . look if you have a melted knock sensor. check your firing order.
