I've just swapped a Romeo 4.6L into my 2000 Mustang GT and we've hooked everything back up as well as replaced all fluids, but it only cranks when I turn the key. It won't turn over. What could the problem be?
>>
Does it have spark? Does it pump fuel?

Answer those questions and come back here.
>>
>>17733981
What do you mean spark? Like spark plugs? Yeah they're in there
>>
>>17734007
Doesn't mean the plugs are getting current
>>
>>17734007
What? Get a sparkplug out of the cylinder while it is plugged in and crank the engine, does it have a spark then?
>>
>>17734016
Why would I take it out? It's supposed to be in there too ignite the fuel. I don't think you know cars very well
>>
>>17734022
Great job, you fucked up.

Frog posters and a ford owner in one thread, beautiful.

I was only pretending
>>
>>17734049
Yeah, I'm a diesel mechanic and I do it that way all the time.
>>
>>17734054
Your sure? Should I put some grease on my finger or something? For protection?
>>
>>17734076
Find an open wound, just to be sure it works.
>>
>>17734082
Wtf? Your trying to kill me!
>>
>>17734099
Why would I do that? I am giving you tips, man. That's how I check the coils on mine.

Ford 4.6s don't have sparkplug wires, they're coil-on-plug.
>>
>>17734601
Not a 2000, in a car, they are the two packs I believe
>>
>>17734022
yeah but you can't see if the spark plug is working properly
so you take it out and turn the ignition (cut the fuel too to avoid drowning your engine)
now you can see the spark if they work properly
>>
>>17734037
If you know how your car works why doesn't it work?
>>
>>17734645
It's not my fault this piece of shit doesn't work!!!
>>17734642
Yeah but how can i turn the key and look at the plug at the same time?
>>
>>17734654
Chillax nigg idk pull out a spark plug stick a multimeter on it and check is getting power. Just don't be a mongoloid
>>
>>17733963
>only cranks
>won't turn over
Why do you dumbasses use "turn over" to mean "start up" when turn over means the same as crank?
Please:
>It cranks but it doesn't fire up/ start up
>It turns over but it doesn't fire/ start up
How can we expect to live in a civilized society when you heathens can't use proper terminology?
>>
>>17734625
You might be right, quick Google says 2000 was the year the trucks got COP on the 4.6; Crown Victorias (and other Panther bodies) got coil on plug 2v 4.6s in 1998 but I'm not sure when the fourth gen Mustang got it.
>>
>>17734099
Take the plug out of the head and plug the wire into it. Touch the metal hex part of it to the block for grounding and see if it Sparks. Take out your main fuel line and have it piss some fuel into a water bottle or something to check if it's flowing
>>
>all these tards eating the bait like starving africans
>>
>>17734946
They are coil plugs. I own a 2000 GT If i remember correctly they got them on 99 maybe 98.

This has got to be a bait thread. Anyone able to remove and replace an engine is going to know about spark. It's one of those threads by someone that just barely knows enough to name drop "romeo 4.6L" to get a bait thread going.
