car won't start...
 
please delete...thanx ya....ended up being the ground on the thermostat housing









up into yesterday my 95 eg hatch was running fine...while driving home she cut off on me as if i was out of gas(i coincedently just filled it up)...the main relay was clicking as if it was having a seizure, the speedometer would move when the key was in the on position, and this is the strange part...the odometer moved as if the car was driving...now it has a b18b obd2 swap in it...i thought that the p06 ecu would run the motor just fine, into i had the money to go with a better ecu...i checked to see if there was gas on the spark plugs and there wasn't but there was fuel passing thru the filter ( which means that the filter, pump and the relay is working) yet the car will start if i spray ether in the intake...i check for spark (the tune up was just done), everything was good...timing was done about 30,000 miles ago... any suggestions

try to loosen the nut at the end of the fuel rail and turn the key on and see if fuel sprays out.

Re: car won't start...
 
what really confuses me is the fact the that the speedometer and the odometer moves when the key is in the on position, and that i can here the main relay clicking a thousand times( and i know that it is supposed to click three times)...i leaning towards electrical but at wits end as to what it could be
