That sounds like no fuel, or maybe no spark. Spins over freely enough.

[joe cavalier sri]

theres plenty of fuel and pressure heres the two wire I was on about ones black and comes from starter connector and ther is red and black and comes from round back of engine near starter

[joe cavalier sri]

Theres no spark replaced ht leads spark plugs dizzy arm and cap still no spark

[joe cavalier sri]

speaking to troy he said test the engine loom with a volt meter on buzzer

[Envoy CDX]

Is there anything plugs on the end of those cables?

Also, if you haven't got an spark look at your earths too.
This is likely going to be really simple once you find it too.

Rate spent about 15 minutes on cav today traced the two suspect wires shown in an earlier photo black wire comes from starter and red and black wire comes from starter too any one help on the importance of these two wires it cranks over but no spark ? cheers




As you can see the red and black wire comes from a loom unsure if its the starter loom ? these two wires were joined up any help please cheers

[joe cavalier sri]

According to Mr Haynes manual page number 12.58 track 105 both wires are on starter loom both come from starter the red and black wire goes from starter to x5 connector but cant see any red and black wires coming from x5 connector broken or cut but it does look like its coming from starter way ?



And the black wire is ment to come from starter too the battery. The cav I removed this c20xe from the 1990 4x4 cav dizzy type had an after market alarm fitted could these wires have been cut as part of the alarm system ?
How important are these wires from stopping the engine from starting it wont spark the ht leads spark plugs fuel relay dizzy cap and arm have been replaced including coil and module and the engine management light goes on and off upon turning of the key ?

[Metallicav]

Did the gsi have an aftermarket immobiliser on it aswell as the alarm?

[TurboDan]

A whole 15 minutes!


If its cranking over then theres nothing wrong with that black/red wire as thats all that does so forget that.

I think your looking in the wrong place.

[btcctroy]

Its not the starter loom!
Check Crank sensor circuit

It had a factory immobiliser and an after market alarm toad alarm I think it was

[joe cavalier sri]

Ok cheers will check it out with Mr Haynes

[Envoy CDX]

Bet the Crank sensor is plugged into the CTS and vice versa..
