URGENT VR6 HELP PLEASE!

[yakuza racer 16]

the story:

redid the motor, new bearings, mains, rings, cleaned off carbon from head, replaced 2nd hand block, original block had very bad piston slap cause by gungeon pins.

swing but nothing

there is fuel

there is spark

car swings freely like no compression, but cranked the motor for compression before fitting plug leads etc..

crank sensor connected and speed sensor connected.

something im overlooking?

plugs are dry, no oil or fuel..

anyway to check comp without removing the head or diy with minimal tools?

thanks.

If your plugs are dry then there is no fuel, which could point to something like the crank sensor...is it connected to the correct plug, and not mixed up with the knock sensor?

will switch it around.... thanks for the feedback.

also i got this answer on another forum:

"Vr6 will commonly jump teeth on startup becuase no pressure on the tensioner. Many many guys have bent valve on The first crank. You either have to get the pressure up by spinning the oil pump beforehand or by holding the tensioner tight with a screwdriver then crank till the oil light goes out and then Putting the tappet cover and manifold on."

any truth to it?

As Paul already said ref dry plugs but surely it is worth doing a compression test as well. No need for a drop test but a quick compression test will also give an idea of what's going on.
