Hey I'm new to nissans and i recently picked up a stock 89 240. It would crank, but the valves sounded really bad and it didn't have alot of compression. A friend of mine just pulled his running ka out of his 90 for the sr20 swap, so i got his ka and put it in my car. But now it won't start. it turns over just fine, but it won't start. Is there anything that I might be missing?
thanks

check timing and spark.

and fuel delivery

basically, you need compression, fuel and spark

Ive always had hondas, and the grounds on their heads won't affect the motor startingm but after looking over the KA, i saw that there were 2 ground wires, that tied into the harness for the fuel injectors...and that was it! Thanks for the help!
