My 1974 1.8 completely stock has a problem. Every couple of days it will only stay running about three seconds. No mater how many times I try to start it, it just runs for three seconds then dies. Other days it will run great.
I checked the power to the fuel pump, and get 10.86 while cranking. When I plug the fuel pump back in and crank the engine, it doesn't do anything. No noise, no vibration. I removed the pump and jumped it with a battery, and it spins like it should. What am I missing. Thank you... |
