Car: 1990 GS Integra b18a1
Problem :Car wont start, just cranks but when the motor does turn over the idle is at 100rpm til it dies which is about a couple seconds. Also when it cranked there was a decent amount of fuel coming out the exhaust, hasnt leaked since im assuming it was the left over fuel in the engine.
Details: So heres the tragic story of what happened this morning. So i have CEL 07 for a while now, its the tps. i changed the sensor and tried to re-calibrate it today, the yellow constant wire was reading .17, it was reading too low so i tapped the battery+ (reading .45) to the yellow constant wire on the tps sensor. As i tried to crank the engine it made this loud metal banging sound as if somethings stuck and wont crank. i took the tapped wire out and next thing i know fuel is pouring out the intake and the filter. i removed the intake to find fuel leaking through the intake manifold. when i opened the throttle it was like a waterfall of fuel shot out. next, my cousin suggested the engine is flooded with gas. i took out the spark plugs and cranked it so all the fuel shot out. let it dry for a half an hour. next i figured hmm maybe my ecu is fried... the cel wont go on when the keys in there, no clicks neither, so i just bought a new ecu and everything seems to be pretty fine, by that i mean it cranks fine now. However heres my problem.
Checked:
key on position, cel goes on, and off. 3 clicks as it should,
fuel pump primes
sparks
