Dear fix-kick
Please help!!!! 95 geo tracker 1.6. 16 valve engine rebuilt and installed back in the car. Timing set per your pages, compression good 150 all 4 cylinders new fuel filter. Spark good runs on test fuel like a dream. When turning key on u can hear fuel pump run primes up then shuts off turn the key further and engine fires up and then runs for 2-3 seconds and dies. Checked codes and only get 12 code had to flip the nag switch and got the dtc jumper on still no codes other than 12. I purchased a noid test kit from harbor freight and get no pulse light or light at all upon key turn on. Timing light show near zero when running on test fuel. What next.? The engine ran fine prior to rebuild and can not figure out what to do next. I don't want to start throwing parts at it oh yea egr valve moves with hand vacum and fuel pressure regulator is new and have done test and appears to be working. I am thinking I am missing some simple fix or at least I hope!
