Question Electrical Question, Engine Swap

I switched engines, by putting a 1990 3 banger into a 1995, I used the 1995 intake etc... but now I have no juice to the plugs. There's power on both sides of the coil and I believe one side should be ground out.

What did I miss?? Any ideas??

You forgot to hook up the ground terminal to the engine/trans bolt located on the drivers side of the engine compartment. It is sticks out of the wire loom. I fought that one for 3 days. I had power to the distributor but it would not fire.

Good luck....

Re: Electrical Question, Engine Swap

Hi, I have a question about my GEO Metro '94. Today, my GEO just quit running. Its getting NO spark out of the coil, and no gas coming out of the injector. The engine was running just fine, and then stopped suddenly. Mechanically the engine is fine. Battery is HOT and alternator running good. It turns over with the starter no problem [just no spark or gas from injectors]. I've swapped out the coil assembly twice, I've swapped out the distributor in total [complete unit with cap and inside electric], the ECU/computer module, and all of the relays under the hood, but all to no avail. The coil is getting 12 volts to its imput\ terminal, but puts out no voltage at all to the distributor via the coil wire. The throttle body is getting 12 voltage, but again, no gas is being injected. What do you suggest is the problem? do you know somebody who would know how to diagnose ? Robert
