So my '74 2.0 FI has been running well. I do an oil change (warm), start it and run it for a short while, check oil, top it off. Next day I go to start it and it kicks a little but won't run. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) I checked to see if I perhaps knocked a vacuum line off, but everything looks okay. Any ideas? Where is the best place to start diagnosis?

if you are hearing "the Fuel pump running" i am guessing you are running carbs with an electric fuel pump. does the starter spin with any authority while the fuel pump is running? or, does it just kick in and not start? i am no authority on fi, but on start up, you wont hear the pump "run" it pressurizes the system and then waits for the car to start. does not run continuous at start up." more dis info please. i see you are in ct. pm me i would be happy to help. you aint far away.
