hey this seems to be a dead thread but if you swaped engines you need to swap ecus too there is a pretty significant diffrence between a 95 and a 96 that diffrence has been haunting me for years now good luck

Hmm emoji

Not true. Engines are all the same (except of course the 95 main bearings...eh nevermind), you would just swap sensors for any differences.


This is the second post (out of 8. That's 25%) where you are posting up incorrect information;

Items like this make others think that you may be just post whoring. I don't believe that is the case. I believe that you are a new guy who wants to help out and get involved. That's cool, just be careful what you post up.

Hopefully this will give you a bit of immunity from, say a Deej, for your previous posts. But the future is up to you emoji

So I just joined this forum looking for this same problem: 95 talon engine not getting power to the coil pack after engine and sensors were switched and this is all there is?

No real help?

One person that says replace the ECU and one that says that is bogus but doesn't offer any suggestions?

Aside from the fact there are literally thousands of no-start threads going all the way back to 2000, this thread is two years old. Try again.

If you're not getting power to the coil and you've swapped sensors, verify you're getting 8v+ to both the cam angle and crank angle sensors clean ground at both sensors, and you're getting a ~5v+ signal from them, as well as make sure you didn't mix up the coilpack plug with the VSS plug.
