So one of my injectors went bad. I replaced all of them with some used 5.5 gen ones that I bought on here. I did Accelerator Pedal Released Position Learning and Throttle Valve Closed Position Learning before attempting to start the car.

Could I have missed a connector or something? Is there a specific connector that could keep the car from starting?

Everything works in the ON position, all of the dash lights work. Although when I try to start the car, the lights go dead and the car won't start.

Could it possibly be the battery?

Help me out, this car is pissing me off!

 

Check for corosion on the battery connectors and check any of your grounds to see if they are loose.

 

yep check the battery and alternator

 

I'll check for corrosion. Thanks!

 

Cleaned as much corrosion off as possible. Still won't start. The thing that is getting me, is that it won't even try to start. That is why I am thinking it could be a connector or something. I am 99.9% sure I did not miss a connector though.

 

are the dash lights dim? if theyre dim, probably the alty

 

It'll turn over without injectors, so it's not that. How's your battery voltage looking?

 

Need more info, does the car crank at all or does it just crank slow. If it is cranking are you get fuel and no spark or spark and no fuel.

It maybe something dumb like forgeting to connect the injector harness ground

 

The car does not crank at all. Doesn't even try.

 

I would start with the easy stuff and like stated before check everything you touched then everything around it.

Next check the battery, does your lights, radio, etc still work. Then I would follow-up by checking your fuses.

If everything is fine I would jump the starter to make sure it's good. If the starter works make sure the signal wire for the starter provides 12v when you turn the key. If it does not check your alarm if you have one or the ignition switch

 

All of the interior lights and gauge cluster lights work so I don't think the battery would be completely drained. Maybe it's a fuse.

 

Interior lights and gauge cluster lights don't take anywhere near the same amout of power (Amps, not Volts) to light up then does your starter to turn over your engine.

Have the battery tested, or try to jump start the vehicle.

 

Alright, got it started!

Tested the battery and it had 12.4 volts so I knew that was good. Checked the starter, doing the trick that T6378tp told me to do. That worked.
It then clicked in my head that maybe the clutch switch could be loose or something. Checked by the clutch pedal and the clutch switch was a little loose. Snapped it on, and it started right up.

Now the problem is the fact that it has a weird idle. It sounds like it is running on 5 cylinders or something. It doesn't have full power either. Feels pretty slow when I go WOT.
I tested the front three coils and they all seem good.

I think when the injector went out, it messed up the plug too. I am gonna check the plug tomorrow and see if that is the issue.

At least the car starts now. That made me happy.

 

Car seems do be doing better now.
Still a slight hesitation. Might be one of the rear three coil packs.

Here is a question for you guys:
Can coil packs work intermittently, or do they just work or not work?

Thanks!

 

Coil packs work or they do not. At least I've never seen an intermitting one.

 

i thought cracked ones kinda work?

 

try your ground, maybe it was frid
