I know this has been discussed over and over and over ive read every forum i could on this... I basically did the DME big wire splice together deal and i can get the engine to crank over but it wont spark off just cranks. So i sent the DME to a tuner place to totally remove the EWS system from the DME so that i would have to set here and have all the EWS 2 stuff in play for it to get fire just received DME yesterday and still the same dam thing. I even bought the setup to reprogram your key to the dme and did that still no luck at all this car was a basket case when i got it and the previous owner just went out to start it one day and it wouldnt start so he says!!!! Would love any help on this or were to start at it cause i dont have a reader yet either my obd tester wouldnt read this car. so not sure what to get o read if there is any codes maybe Inpa?
