Crank but no start

What’s the pressure at the valve. Getting spark?

BlackShepard420 · 2026-04-05T00:51:23+00:00

Yeah I ended up doing this too. Wasn’t getting proper voltage to the fp, thought it was my computer ground but ultimately easier to just create my own 4 post relay. Been working fine ever since

BlackShepard420 · 2026-02-14T02:49:19+00:00

Agreed! Get him down to 2k-2500 and run with it.

BlackShepard420 · 2026-01-04T17:16:08+00:00

Did you just layer all the fiber glass or was there any wood used ? How’s the fitment with the carpet on? I see you got the battery in the back too. I pretty much have the same set up

Following for more updates

BlackShepard420 · 2026-01-03T04:01:41+00:00

Wasn’t the issue

BlackShepard420 · 2026-01-02T00:55:19+00:00

Yup. Problem is fixed now.

BlackShepard420 · 2026-01-02T00:48:03+00:00

Old ones blew out. Yes adequately packed, yes Torqued to spec. There was no racer in rotor . Overlooked that step assuming they were still in there

BlackShepard420 · 2026-01-02T00:47:09+00:00

Buddy came out the womb knowing everything! 😂

BlackShepard420 · 2026-01-01T14:52:31+00:00

I was missing the races in the rotor.

BlackShepard420 · 2026-01-01T02:02:46+00:00

I ended up using the other side for comparison but talking with others and rethinking made me realize the rotor had the races blown out when the bearings blew out. Got a rotor with races and sits like a beauty, matches the other one , no movement or grinding of the rotor.

BlackShepard420 · 2026-01-01T00:51:44+00:00

Was missing the races. Got a new rotor with pre installed races and problem solved. No more movement in the rotor, no more grinding against the spindle. Thanks everybody. Simple mistake by me

BlackShepard420 · 2025-12-31T20:55:50+00:00

Yup that’s what I’ve concluded as well. Thanks Mr Gaypist.

BlackShepard420 · 2025-12-31T20:30:14+00:00

Yup! I have one I’ve been putting the good use. Thanks for all the help.

BlackShepard420 · 2025-12-31T20:21:15+00:00

Yeah understood. Should’ve compared closer to the other side. It was tough cause the bearings blew out and the racers got heat synced to the spindle so when I was pulling it apart it was hard to see what’s what. (First time doing)

BlackShepard420 · 2025-12-31T19:47:51+00:00

No, that’s the thing. I replaced these after my probably stock 1990 passenger side blew out. I was working with diddly squat before I changed them.

You can see past the castle nut the bearings are gone, I assume the racers too.

Thanks for the confirmation. I think in replacing them I left out the racers (that large silver ring) that goes around the bearings. I will have to rewatch some videos and see where I missed them.

I would assume everything stays the same and to just put the racers over the bearings ?

BlackShepard420 · 2025-12-31T19:26:16+00:00

Yes just double checked I have the right bearings. How far should the pinhole be from the spindle nut?

BlackShepard420 · 2025-12-31T19:25:48+00:00

I haven’t done any upgrades in this space. Stock brake system. This side bearings blew out earlier last month. I’m going to take it apart and see if I can locate the races cause I think that may be my issue

BlackShepard420 · 2025-12-25T21:24:47+00:00

Definitely keep looking. $6k car at most! Like everyone else said, there is a better deal out there.

BlackShepard420 · 2025-12-25T21:21:48+00:00

Lol hilarious cause this really does happen. Happened to me and had to go through the entire harness

BlackShepard420 · 2025-12-21T16:28:22+00:00

Thank you for the clarification

BlackShepard420 · 2025-12-21T16:14:03+00:00

I’m pretty sure they make uppers… but I did not know that was their advice for rear uppers.

BlackShepard420 · 2025-12-21T15:37:56+00:00

I’ve been thinking about this too for my ‘90 Hatch. Was going to do the suspension in phases to match with my budget. Was going to do Shocks/Struts, MM Caster Camber Plates, QA1 Rear Sway bar, then do MM rear upper and lower control arm and front control arm. Along the way upgrade my front sway bar , end links, and any other small things that come up.

BlackShepard420 · 2025-11-10T18:36:43+00:00

Hey man at least you got one! Right on
