stupid shit wont start!

ok just did a radiator swap last weekend thing started up ran fine drove it around the block and all that crap. moved this week so i want over to load up the zuk-stine thing and FUCK it wont start!

it has spark not a bright blew but a strong orange
has fuel and its getting to the carb.

motor spins fine starter spins well there is no fire once you put it all together.
we have had three people looking at this thing. we put new plugs cap and rotor in it. the coil only has maybe 5000 miles on it if that and the plug wires are new too. ther is no condencer on the coil have herd they need one, but there was not one there when i got the truck!

any body have an IDEA! miron ( some zuk guru) said put a condencer on it and it should have good blue spark, nope didn't change a thing.

we cant even get it to fart with starter fluid!

come on flame all you want but i'm missing out on good wheel time here

one guy thinks its the disstributer, the ignitor inside maybe shot! i have like three of these things laying around so if i need to change it out i can!

Classic case of a bananna in the tailpipe... If you're not too young to know what I'm talking about. Check it out.

I'm thinking your wrenching skills are as good as your spelling skills.

Or lack thereof.................

Rat nest in the intake?
Fuel coming off in good amounts at the inlet(pull hose)
Your dick is not in the tailpipe(fawking lost that pic some british guy with his dick in the tailpipe of a land rover)
Have friend hold coil wire if he screams you have enough spark
Is the dizzy shaft busted or stripped?
Have you tried putting another engine in it?
Have you let your girlfriend work on it?

x2!!

There is a ground on the back of the distibutor case that may not be connected enough. Either that or the plug the ignitor uses. If that is disconnected, it won't start...

And if it is Myron from Zuks Offroad, pay close attention to everything he has to say. He knows his Zuks.

"We're not falling for the bananna in the tail pipe!"

the condensor is for ignition noise on the radio, install a MSD 6al ignition control, http://sethwissner.com/MSDwiring.jpg

I think I am gonna do the "Big 3" to my rig this week. For those of you who don't know what that is, stay tuned. I will do a write-up on my Sidekick.

Nevermind. Can't afford the Big 3, but I will be overhauling my electrical as soon as the camera comes back.

You are an embarrassment to us all. Fawking man up and finish the job you may need to go get some last minute groceries or something. This kid did this build in the cold and on gravel
/forum/toyota-truck-4runner/732520-94-v6-sas-trail-link-4-a.html
I would like you to review this thread and see how you said the dizzy works right? How does it work when the ground is cooked? I'm sick of this its cold crap. Most of the builds happen in the winter if you keeping setting the example among your peers that its cold my pussy lips are cracked and chaffed they need carmex to feel better were all going to be running 28" tires with stock gears Get it done today

My Zuk used to not start because of some little tiny shit ass ground cable that attached to the firewall, passenger side. Check that, they fall off a lot. It's a flat, braided type, wire.

You know you really suck at the intraweb no wonder your ground wires are falling off your challenged when it comes to the future

Notice the cameo from one of the wayans brothers. We are not going away we are going to sit here and post all day until you get this shit running. This will be an awesome motivational thread on starting problems that may help someone on a trail who has a laptop and a air card to review this mobile style Where do you live do I need to go over there and do it myself. I fix a bad wire on my f250 in the rain yesterday yeah its not snow but its a start.
Come on man your the homghey fawker that posted up how you can't start an engine in a supposive hard core "EXTREME" environment here on the PBB. We answered it now lets finish it
