recently had a full respray (engine out) and just dropped the engine back in but it wont start. Everything is hooked up properly and its turning over and getting fuel and spark but it just wont start. Has anyone had this problem before? Ive searched but come up with nothin.

spark was alright as nothin was taken out before or after engine was in or out. And the battery was alright to it goes flat from cranking over to much but its chared again now. Ive checked all the fuses as well.

All i could find was some guy had same problem which was an injector fuse (dunno where they are) And people have had a problem with the CAS but i dunno how to tell if its not working.

I just noticed then when tryin to crank the car over theres no oil pressure on my guage, after afew cranks the light goes away and then stop cranking for a few seconds and straight away the pressure light comes back on could this be a problem?

not a problem, wouldnt stop it from starting, get a mechanic friend to check if its sparking and pulsing the injectors, or are you mechanically minded?

one thing i have learnt is that even though a customer says it has spark is to check it any way, 9 times out of ten there wrong.

not saying your wrong but....

    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
