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....

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
