Ok Id tore my motor out planing on putting a v8 in it but money and time forced me too put the six back in it now I can't get it to start I'm sure that the timing is right but I don't remember where any of the vacuum lines go dose anyone have a diagram/ anyone had this problem any help would be awesome thx

 

The FSM has all the diagrams you'd ever need.

A motor needs 3 things to start:
-proper air
-proper fuel
-proper spark

Is there spark at the spark plugs? Are the injectors spraying?

 

. . . . . Plugs back in order. . . . . Ground wire to dist hooked up?? Check the thermo stat housing did you hook up the right wire to correct sensor. . . . . My dumb *** moment two days of bitching tottal loss ! Are the fuel hoses correct? I had mine on backwords take your time one wire makes the car run or not run in this case. . . . . Always take a mental note on how the car runs and what part goes where before takeing it apart. . . . . . Think everyone here has had that dumbass moment missed connection or hose in the wrong place. Just go threw the car again and repeat

 

Oh and timeing well if you moved the dist yea going to have to time it. . . . If you didn't touch it your fine really sounds like a wrong wire or a wire not hooked up. . . . . The three I found that will kill the engine are black wire on bottom of dist going to ground. . . Square plug in the 79 should have 2 on the themostat housing if they are backwords wount run. . . Ones a temp sensor not sure what the other is. And lastly the plug for the dist itself. . . Other than that car will run shitty of course long as you have injectors plugged in and the mass air plugged in car should kick over or at least try. . . . . .

 

Really the fuel lines backwards will do that? That's weird ill have to try flipping those and ill check those wires thx for the help will let u know what happens

 

Well your now sucking fuel from engine and pumping it back into the tank lmao my dumbass moment line from fuel filter should be on upper hard line. . . .

 

If that's ok flip the two plugs around on the thermostat two square plugs if that wount work check your wires look up the fire order it would still try to kick though if they were wrong. . . . Let me know my 79 did give me pains on first start

 

If its just cranking fast with no kicks or back fires its a wire you missed or no fuel. . . .
