    OK, im about reddy to push my stang off a cliff. I was gunna go pull codes on it, but, i cant drive it anywhere. I've replaced everything in the ignition system except for the ECU. The thing still doesnt get any spark. Please tell me why this is. I've been waiting to run this thing all week. And now I cant.

    Some say its the timing, and some say its the brain. I dunno what it is. I cant even start the thing up to get it to a shop...

    You can buy a code scanner from autozone for like 15 bux...

    I'm not going to search through your old posts to figure out what the original problem was...either link to them or make some cliffnotes.

    well I dont have that old engine anymore. its a new one in there. I just dunno what the problem is. I've changed everything in the ignition system but the ECU, and it wont start still. It just cut off one day and wouldnt start, thats all.

    So your n/a engine quit running and you swapped in the turbo motor before figuring out the original problem (I sure hope not).

    *drops head* no, Its the turbo motor. My other engine runs, it just has some weird problems. The turbo motor wont crank up now.
