74 1.8 with L-Jet
- Gas in tank - Key on and AFM flap moved with screwdriver, I can hear the pump run. - Removed fuel injector and placed in jar. Key on, moved AFM flap (can hear pump running), no fuel. Reconnected AFM to air intake and cranked it over (can't hear pump over starter), still no fuel in jar. Propped the AFM flap open, key on (can hear pump running), cranked it over, still no fuel in jar. Best I can figure, I think it must be one of the following: - plugged fuel filter? - fuel pump spinning, but not actually pumping fuel? - fuel pressure regulator? - injectors not receiving signal to spray? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) Any suggestions? Thanks |

UPDATE - Still No Run:
- Have spark - Key on, push on AFM flap and can hear pump run - Clean Fuel Filter - Disconnect fuel hose at Fuel Pressure Regulator and activate pump, fuel comes out, but I don't think fast enough for what the pressure should be. - Injectors are squirting, but as above, I don't think enough. Tiny little squirt, not a find mist spray. When it died (on the freeway on-ramp of course) it was acting like it was out of gas. So, I suppose the next step would be to get a fuel pressure gauge, right?? Where and how do I hook it up? Thanks All! |
