    no start on the stroker

    alright guys i need a bit of help. i finished my stroker engine, got it in the car, hooked everything up, filled it with oil/coolant, .....and then no start.

    the engine cranks but i have no spark, im pretty sure that i dont hear the fuel pump working when i turn the key on. so no fuel or spark. i need help. i dont currently have an oil level sensor pluged in atm because the one from my 325e doesnt have the right connector. so thats not pulgged in. could that be the problem? i dont know what relays to check or how... nor do i have a test light to do it. the pulse sensor is brand new. all the parts that i used came out of a running car. it was a 88 325i. the ecu numbers are 173. i cant figure it out. plz help

    The oil level sensor won't have anything to do with the engine not starting. No fuel and no spark sounds like no timing reference data to the DME or no power to the DME. The first things to check are to make sure that you haven't swapped the cylinder ID and CPS connections and to see if the main relay is providing power to the DME.
    The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.

      i got it. it was the cps and i didnt have a wire grounded that resulted in no power to coil.
