b16 wont start

i just dropped a b16a into my 93 teg, im using my harness with the needed wires added in with a p30 ecu. i had it start twice for only about a min. both times i reset the ecu befor trying. i got codes from my check engine light and fixed the problems.now it wont star at all. im wondering if i should run a resistor pack with the injectors that came with this engine? any help please.

Oh my.... You might have fried the ECU. Check if the resistors are reading 2-6 ohms. You should have installed the resistor pack. Then try again.

i hope i didnt fry my ecu.....i dont really want to run the resistor box, could i just switch the injectors that came with the b16 for a set out of a b18 that didnt run a resistor box? ?

You can use any saturated injectors that are 240/cc

ones that dont use the resistor box?

Mitsubishi's don't use a resistor box. You should learn to identify the kinds of injectors. Peak and hold or Saturated. there's info somehwere in the site.

i know for the most part. 93 and up integras are saturated i also knew mitsu's are the same but will they deliver too much fuel,also the newer sis also use saturated , i was just wondering if this could be my problem?

What you need to know is if the injectors you are using are saturated or not. If it is then look for the problem elsewhere. If it is peak and hold then you need to use the resistor box and hope that you didn't fry the ECU.

Where did the engine come from anyway. What is the Engine code and serial number.

i was running peak and holds,but i switced them out for satturated injectors today reset the ecu and it still wont start.it wants to but it wont

the engine is from a shop called street imports out of ottawa.its a b16a with a white plug distributor, which i changed to a gray.

Now theres a problem. You ran the ECU without the resistor box using P&H injectors?

Try swapping ECU? borrow from a friend.
