Well I have had my car kinda running for 1 day now. I have been able to drive it up the street The car will stay going with no problems.. Then I will shut the car off and try to start it again. It turns over just fine but I can't get any pluse from the injectors. So I let the car sit for a few hours then it works fine I can even start it on the frist crank. Can someone help me trouble shoot this thanks. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wavey.gif)

The head temp sensor is also called Temp Sensor II. It's screwed into the head, near cylinder No. 3. Another possibility might be the cold-start injector is stuck open, or isn't switching off. This is a completely separate system, using it's own temp sensor (called a thermo-time switch or just thermoswitch. If this is bad, it can either prevent cold starts or prevent hot ones, depending on how it fails. It's supposed to only energize the cold-start injector while the engine is cranking and only when the engine is actually cold (like below 90dF). If the cold-start injector is open for warm starts, it may be way too rich to allow starting.
Temp sensor 1 measures air temp, and it's much less likely to be a problem. Go to a Radio Shack or similar and get a handful of resistors. If you attach Temp Sensor II's wire to a 100-200ohm resistor (the exact value isn't important, just not too high or too low), and the other end of the resistor to ground, you're simulating a working CHT sensor with the engine hot. If the CHT sensor is your problem, the car will start when hot. Use a 1500-3000ohm resistor to simulate a working CHT sensor when the engine is cold. A resistor assortment is cheap, and this is an easy way to test if this sensor is the problem. Clean every connection you can find. Bad connections are the source of 90% of electrical problems. |
