[:@]my 1990 Eclipse GS 2.0 is doing the exact same thing.

I too checked for spark, fuel delivery, replaced my ignition coils, power transisitor, wires, plugs, air/fuel filters and all she'll do is crank and fireoff!
I too can use help!

Didnt you already make a thread about it?

Guys and Gals,

Having the same type of issue with my 96 Eclipse.

Fresh re-build, but won't start up.

Have a string going on another forum that shows the progression (and frustration).

Hope someone can help me.

Plan to post the solution whenever it decides to start.

Thanks,
Mike

For some reason there is a lot of this type of probem going around.. No Spark.. and spun #1 Rod bearing...I fixed the bearing and can't fix the spark the engine did strart and run great for 300 miles.. now it has no spark . I changed the Crank and  Camshat Sensor's The fuel pump runs fine I rechecked the Valve timing and it is spot on..I also checked the coils and they are in specs.. Thinking PCM found one in a salvage yard but it was for a 5 spd. instead of a Auto.. Did I say I checked the relays also.. they are working...all wire harness that were unplugged before were rechecked for bent pins or not connecting.. I am past my Wits End what could it be. With no Check engine light. and can't find a dealer with a Mois Dianotic machine from Snapon. I can see why for $7650.  any other Ideas would be appreciated .. Thanks.. Oh I am still waiting for the report from you as to what was the Problem...

I too am having the same problem.  I have a 91 Talon TSI AWD (auto trans) that I've been playing with for about 8 months now.  Replaced the cylinder head and timing belt, put it together and it will not start.  I checked the compression and all cylinders are about 150-160 psi.  As I doug deeper into my no start situation, I found that I was getting spark and had pleny of fuel pressure, but no injector pulse.  So, I replaced the ECU from a '94 Eclipse gsx turbo (manual trans) and now, no spark or injector pulse.  I just wanted to make sure that the ECU could affect the primary ignition circuit and cause a no spark situation.

Right now, it's too cold to mess with (Central Ohio), so if I find the soultion, it won't be till spring.  It's one of two project cars right now, so no rush.

Make sure the timing is good. And a couple other things to check is the cam position sensor and crankshaft position sensor. If either of those are no good the car wont start

It can also be the ASD relay and ECU.
Here's some more info on the ASD that I just posted up.

I just found this link about "Solving the mysteries of Chrysler ignitions."  It really breaks it all down and not too technical to follow.

I think I may have figured out my problem with the no start:  According to the ECU reference chart found on www.mitsubishiecu.com,  the ECU I won from ebay is for a 90-94 1.8L non turbo, and from what I've read, they are not compatible.  So, now I have to fight with the seller for a refund or excahnge.

Hi, is does your car have an alarm with imobiliser? my mates GSR wouldnt fire up for six months as he tried replacing everything he could think off[:@] so i ripped his alarm out rewired the car back to factory and it started first time[:)]

jvaughn -> RE: Ignition problem!! (1/4/2008 12:10:04 PM)

No alarm.  I was getting spark, but no injector pulse with the old ECU.  No spark or injector pulse with the replacement ECU.  Just need to find a cheap ECU that works.
