started the car this morning perfectly fine, went out for an hour and came back

just before i took my coil packs off (yellow jackets) to check my spark plugs, everything was sweet so i put everything back on only to realise the car wouldnt turn over. Battery volts showing on the sub-meter in the cabin was 6 volts ? so i tested with a multi meter at the battery terminals and that showed 12.2volts??

how can there be about 6 volts difference between battery and gauge inside cabin??

i hooked up a battery packs, it started for afew seconds then died, now it just keeps cranking and cranking but doesnt start

things ive done so far, ran out of time cos i gotta go to a stupid suprise bday !

*all fuses are fine

*fuel pump is priming, fuse on pump relay is fine

still gotta check for spark, would i have to test every single spark plug?

what are the chance of my Ignitor failing, and is there a way to test it?

Not having much luck with it lately Michael.

Did u remove the coil pack loom completely or just move it to the side?

Reason i ask is there is 2 connectors in the loom above the cyl 6 inlet that are the same. If u get these the wrong way it wont start.

Is the volts the same at the terminal post as the terminal itself?

Try a different battery and see.

Just moved the coil pack cover to the side and coil pack loom to the side. Only thing I disconnected was the big connector going from coilpack loom, through the coilpack cover and to the ignitor.

Actualy I couldn't get that connector to "click" in position but it did go all the way in?

Back to the drawing board... :(

    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
