  • 2.0L crank no start

    Hello all,

    I used to run a KLZE. I had 5 or 6 Mazdas in total. That was years ago.

    I'm trying to help a friend with his 93 2.0L MX-6.

    I spent some time with it tonight and I have some information, but no solution:

    -Cranks, no start
    -No codes. Pulling MAF plug yeilds a code.
    -All fuses are good. jumped the engine ignition relay, no change.
    -Disty rotor turns with cranking.
    -No fuel or spark - although there is a weak spark when you stop cranking.
    -Removing disty and spinning rotor by hand does run pump and injectors - forgot to check for spark.
    - 12V on IG- in DIAG box - seems strange to me.
    -Really weird voltage readings across injector (unplugged). No consistent GND or 12V on either pin. Voltage is really all over the place, positive and negative.
    -No continuity to ground at IG-. Jumping IG- to ground yeilds a small spark at the jumper, but no change.

    Since the voltages are weird on the injector and the IG-, I am thinking it must be a sensor ground issue, or an ECM.

    Thoughts?

      I am confused why you can hear the injectors firing in turn when spinning the disty manually, if it requires the CPS?

        Turns out it was the distributor - surprise.

          I NEED HELP mine is 96 PGT starting but dies after 3 seconds. Fuel pressure still stays at 35 psi don’t lose any fuel pressure. I thought it was the distributor so I replaced it with a new one. Nope. Still doing it. *HELP*.

            What's you battery volts reading? And your alternator reading? Also when was the last time you changed spart plugs or wires?
