I've just gotten my swap to the point where I should be able to start the engine, but am currently stumped.
Some background info:
LS1 fuel filter (55psi constant verified with fuel pressure gauge)
compression checked out on 3 rear cylinders (200, 190, 200)
Getting spark on all 6 cylinders
Running Ostrich 2.0 with stock 91 3.1L J-body tune (7730 ECM); EGR, EVAP are deleted.
To be sure the rails weren't filled with air we 'bled' the rails with the schrader valve and found that the fuel pressure actually builds up much faster than before. However, nothing changed.
The check engine light comes on with key on, engine off, but it doesn't do anything differently when I jumper A-B on the ALDL. I haven't been able to get any datastream from the computer either which is odd. The check engine light indicates that the computer is at least partially working. My cable has the ability to use a built-in 10k ohm resistor to get a datastream, using this resistor doesn't change anything. Also, it was turning the radiator fan on with the key in the on position (and also turns on the engine bay blower, wired to the same circuit IIRC). For now I have the fan unplugged. Is it likely my computer is wired wrong or more likely my computer is bad? Am I wrong in assuming I should at least get the odd fire using a stock 3.1L tune as a base?
I believe that my injectors aren't firing for one reason or another but have verified they're getting power and while cranking the ECM injector wires seem to get a fluctuating reading, although I have no idea if they're getting signaled properly by the ECM. I appear to have no fuel exiting the manifolds.
I'd really appreciate advice on this thanks!
