Hey all, my S4 N/A Rebuild won't start. I have already checked that it has fuel and good spark. I had MMO in it and blew all of it out. And I have cranked and cranked but it won't even catch.

Would setting the TPS make any difference? And should I mess around with the timing?

lol yea you could do that... try using starting fluid and see if it'll start with it and run with the gas? or try the unflooding idea pull the egi and crank and put it back in and crank

Make sure your CAS is aligned properly...push starting seems to work for most too (assuming eveyrthing else checks out).
