tow76 0 Posted September 7, 2009 hiya all ive just put an engine into my car the new engine is a 2l 16v 9a and the car originally came with a 1.8 kr 16v,the problem is that im not getting any fuel to the spark plugs,im still on the cars original ecu do i need the 9a ecu??could this be the problem??i also have 3 wires left over with no where to go :) the wires run under the air box or the left hand side of the airbox.2 have the plug connectors 1 long wire 1 short and the 3rd wire is a small spade connecter,does any body know where they go??and finally on the right side of the block just above the thermostat housing there is a screw thread i dont know if there is something missing here. cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davidwort 0 Posted September 7, 2009 you should use the entire 1.8 injection and ignition system from the original KR engine on the 2L 9A block and head, I think the additional wires you are on about are for the various sensors/temperature senders the 2L injection system uses and the electronic fuel pressure regulator (mechanical warm up regulator bolted to the head of the 1.8 engine instead - has two fuel lines going to it.) Any pics to support your questions would be helpful. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
