2002 Tracker / Vitara No Start Issue - Engine Swapped but Ran
#15
surely a very interesting car, and problem
compression must be good.
leak down too is good but leak down does NOT prove engine can pump air, it might but this test is also good.
spark must fire 1,3,4,2 near TDC and no where else, and CMP cam sensors can do CRAZY things, or be the wrong sensor, (must be for correct generation year car)
if engine runs on test fuel with spark good and fuel pump relay pulled.
the make sure fuel pressure is not 60psi, 2 time normal.
I can start an engine like this with no fuel pump and no throttle body at all.

just my can of "instant start:" in hand. cranking and a blasting.. did this too as small boy and RC planes, up to 0.60 size, (nitro)

if bent valves that bad cylinder will have leak down to infinity, (huge vast leak)
and compression at zero PSI (0) https://fixkick.com/compressiontest.html
The tool compression is only $20 at Harbor Freight ™ stores. they rent them in autostores here.

in cars like this I assume it is all bad, the prove it (each function) is not 1 test at a time. compression tops that list. If fails , all else is , like tears in the rain.
the thing that kills progress is assuming.
