Help !!! S14ka24de to s13 swap

[Jesus_lopez405]

Hello guys, I'm having starting issues with my swap S14 engine/s13 transmission and I'm using my stock dohc wiring harness(top and bottom) with the stock s13 ecu. I noticed there's like 3 plugs in the back that don't hook up at all, I got the car to start but it died shortly after and only because I sprayed starting fluid into the TB. I don't know if it may be a wiring issue or just a bad sensor somewhere any help/comments you guys have is greatly appreciated I'm located in okc as well if you have extra time and can fix it you'll be compensated for your time.

my common sense is tingling.... its tell me to tell you check for fuel!




....so check fuel lines, pump, and fpr.

I've heard that between s14 kas and s13 has there are things you have to change if you run s14 ka > s13 wire harness.

I've heard but am not positive that there are a couple different plugs on the intake mani.
and the distributor is different somehow i was told..but i never really cared to look into it since its a pretty pointless swap

Where in the "back" are those plugs that are not connected?

I have swapped S13 KA's into S14's and never the other way around. But every time I did I used my S14 intake manifold and S14 distributor.

Did you swap your S13 intake manifold & S13 distributor over to your S14 motor?

the difference with the dizzy is that the s13 has an external coil and the s14 dizzy uses an internal coil.
and to the op deffinatly check for fuel first. make sure the injectors are all working i had a ka the was running on 2 cylinders from bad injectors lol. report back with your findings from this. and btw did u pull the dizzy out at all? if you did. double check its at TDC.

feel free to pm me with questions

Well I found the problem it was some bad injectors but it's running now. The connectors that don't connect to anything come from the emissions and yea I swapped out the dizzy and manifold THANKS GUYS FOR YOUR OUTPUT AND HELP !!

[s14boy]

thos dam oem injectors lol glad it up and running again
