Have problems with 1972- 1.7 engine. Engine will not start. Question : Does the fuel pump start when switching ignition ON or does pump only work when cranking ?
Thanks for help. Andre |

I assume this is 1.7L D-Jet Fuel Injection, correct? If that's the case, the fuel pump should "prime" (you should hear an audible buzz) for about one to two seconds when you turn ignition on. Fuel pump will not run if it's not plugged in correctly to the relay board or if those grounds are disconnected from case. There are other things to check, but those are two likely issues.
Edit: clarified that it's when you turn ignition on you should hear fuel pump prime. |

Thanks to everybody for the support. Problem is solved. Loose contact on the fuel pump (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) |
