SR SWAP: Check Engine and Fuel Light Problem, etc. - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I just finished swapping in an S13 SR redtop into my 93'. I didn't notice it at first but my fuel light and check engine light are not working. When I turn the key they should turn on but aren't. The rest of the cluster seems to be working fine but I can't be sure since I haven't taken the car out of the driveway just yet. I just pulled the cluster out to make sure the connections back there were secure. Everything was fine.

Also, I know that seeing smoke come out of an engine that has been sitting is common but my idle is stumbing bad and I smell loads of fuel coming out the exhaust. I set the timing with the valve cover off but it's not in the middle of it's adjustment range. It seems to run better if I advance the timing some. Maybe the timing is off.

Any help dealing with the check engine light will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
