RenBlue Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Hello, having an issue with starting my car. I have an 1986 Starlet 1.3 as a project. I fitted the engine everything is wired and plumbed up. When I turn the key nothings happens. I fitted a new battery, checked all fuses, check all the power and theres power going to everything as it should like the starter,alternator,ignition etc. Connected the starter to a battery and it spins up no problem. Would it be an earth problem? Would anyone have an idea of what else it could be ? Appreciate any feedback! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
candy_red Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 Does it crank? First thing to check is if you got spark at the plugs. Make sure the igniter is bolted to a solid ground. I had that happened to me and it cranked endlessly w/o starting up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
