Got it out a few weeks ago and it wont start. It will start when you fog the intake with starting fluid. Im going to start testing fuel pressure. first after the pump, then after the filter, then after the regulator. I don't have a noid light to check the injector signal, but they are grounded.
any ideas?... thanks! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |

You can test your headlights, if they raise and lower, the round relays under those plastic covers near the headlight motors are good.
Now take those 2 round relays that you know work and swap them with the 2 in the engine fuse panel. Just unscrew the knob and lift off the plastic cover to see them (driver's side of engine bay). Those relays work the fuel pump + fuel injection brain and if they are shot then you get what you got. Good luck (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welcome.png) |
