Just had my engine rebuilt at a very reputable shop here in Calgary, AB. Dropped it in connected everything turned it over with no gas or spark to build oil pressure. reconnected Spark and Gas. This is what I'm getting:

any Ideas?

If you have any questions let me know I will update.

Thanks yall

P.S. I'm a little new to the forum, please don't burn me. I am mechanically inclined but the rotary is a little new to me.

 

Pull the ecu leads from the coils.
Pull the fuel breakers from the under hood "fuze" center.
Remove the oil filter.

Spin the engine until oil comes out of the oil filter mount location.
Connect everything back, try starting again.

 

Calll Adam and ask him why it won't start

Confirm fuel pressure and spark...and then check that the plugs aren`t fouled from the assembly lube...make sure you have the coil and injector wiring correct....

Is the ESS hooked up?.....( that is the easiest way to crank it with no chance of starting it as well....to build oil pressure )

Check back later with more info

 

Yeah, unplug the ess, try starting it, and see if you get oil pressure. Your builder should have given you instructions on pre-lubing the engine.

 

Adam's not in yet Sent him an email I will be home at 6:15 to check everything I'll try your suggestions and let you know how it goes.

Any you from Calgary?

 

Tried everything... eventually got a very bad Idle at 560RPM after a pull start...with no throttle response. It's going to Mazda to see if they have any ideas.

 

Did you try to reset the e-shaft sensor (aka 20 brake pedal stomp)?

 

As mentioned above; check your injector connections. They are probably in wrong locations. This is THE MOST COMMON mistake with Renesis installs.

I hope that helps.

Official Diagnosis 2 blown ignition coils and a severely flooded half of engine. cost to diagnose, parts and labor...$400 official total for build so far including car $6800

Car w/ blown engine $1200
Rebuild w/ full depth seals and overlapped housings + lower compression (I think) $4661
Misc Fluids (Oil, coolant, trans fluid and dif Fluid) $200
Shift boot, console, pizza to bribe friends to help. $300
30hr of labour (boozing included) .... Priceless

 

Hey got it back from Mazda they said there is a leak in the intake manifold and thus it cannot stay idling. real pain to drive because if the rpm get too low it kills the engine. Is Mazda correct or are they lying to me? It is also burning extremely rich.. this also caused by the leak?

"Checked fuel trim, +25% at idle, a large intake manifold leak is present"

Compression is Rotar #1 5.9, 5.9, 6.0 @260RPM #25.7, 5.8, 5.9@ 253RPM

 

Intake leak....Caused by dealership not plugging the vacuum hose just behind the throttle body. going to raise some hell tomorrow.

 

The VFAD nipple would not cause it to not start. It would idle like **** though. But honestly checking the vacuum hoses should have been your first thing.

 

The VFAD nipple didn't cause the lack of start it was the bunk coil packs. They took the airbox off to get the coil packs in and reattached all vacuum hoses except the VFAD hose.

Sent an email to their operations manager for the miss and a few other thing that happened payment wise.
