Chaos Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Right, so we threw this 4G63 into the EX. Originally it wouldn't even crank, but that was due to a bad ground. We have fuel and spark. It turns over and begins firing if throttle is held down and the dizzy is rotated hard to the left. Semi-runs if the starter is held on, but as soon as the key is let go it dies. We're thinking the timing could be out on the belt, would this be about right? We've taken the cap off the dizzy and checked that's all in line, etc. Thoughts? Thanks in advance.

kurtis1791 Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 If the dizzys full to left maybe pull it out and turn a tooth to the right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ogre Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Got the right wires hooked up to coil? does it run a ballast resister? Seem to remember having similar issues one day with a 4g63. Was somthing to do with the coil and wires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
be4ver Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Yeah sounds like a ballast resistor fault type dealyo to me. Get a wee jumper wire to go from one side of the resistor to the other and see if it goes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OSM Garage Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 ...and the winner is...Caboon! Yep, issue was a combination of problems, coil wiring being one of them. 1st issue was that the distributor was one tooth out (i checked this three times) 2nd issue was that we had only connected one of the wires to the coil thinking that we didnt need to use the wire that went to the ballast resistor. After I got the timing right and connected both wires to the coil it burst into life. So shes a runner now. Yet to clean up a few things and then skid time!
