My Winter Car: Rivett Cranks but Won't Start (Workarounds)

Short answer

No confirmed fix yet. Players suggest: But I just used MWC Editor to tune the car for me, and it seemed that fixed my issue.

The problem

Just built Rivett, everything is wired up, everything that I need for it to run should be installed but car cranks endlessly without ever starting. All parts should be brand new, and engine is heated with a full battery

Regarding the High-performance Engine

the SLX takes the regular steering wheel and no center console, IF you have the clock on the instrument panel. sporty wheel is only for tachometer option on SLX, I just passed my SLX as historical with this very setup.
