I Have a 76 2.0 that has been parked for over 30 years ..I have been going through it trying to get it back in running order fuel tank has been cleaned and coated, new fuel lines, fuel pump, vacuum hoses, plugs rotor, cap, sent injectors in to Mr. Injector to be cleaned and tested. The car will fire andstart for a second, but won't run. Fuel pressure and spark are good, where do I go next?

QUOTE(rfinegan @ Nov 11 2025, 06:44 AM)  ....second for the starting fluid test (supplemental fuel) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) I'll give that a third vote to try. From what's been stated already, sure sounds like your only firing off the cold start injector. Little spritz of starting fluid to keep it running for 20-30 seconds will help confirm it. |
