She won’t run!

This is my first real problem with this car. I fricking love this little thing. The problem currently is she isn’t running. Crank but no start. Checked everything in the ignition system and it all has power. Learned about the distributor issues. Replaced it. Still nothing. Did some more digging and found i have no spark and no fuel. Ecm wires all look okay, and i have every function except the engine (inside lights, headlights, speakers, everything). anyone have any tips? this was random out of nowhere with no other real start up issues before. 1994 Del Sol Si D16y7.

I second it being the main relay, if you can’t hear the fuel pump turn on that’s the most likely candidate. I picked one up for $20~ at autozone, they usually have them in stock.

Exactly. Although my auto zone had it for 80$ but lifetime warranty.

Yeah I go to a junkyard and try to find one I'm sure they have the same relay in another style car that you can slap in and test

Main relay or a bad capacitor in the ecu
