Hey There.... bad - day with the teener, went to start her for trip home, no-go....
She turns-over, but never fires-up, and fuel actually came out the exhaust !!!! D-jet FI system, thought it might be my optical ignitian points, so re-installed condensor /points, still no-go .... What Gives, all connections, fuses, and grounds are good.... This is the first time that she has left me stuck (needed a ride home) but I do need to get her home, or pay for long tow! Is there anything I can do (emergency type) temporary just to go @ 12miles ? Then I'm thinking CARBs Baby ..... Any ideas// Thanks, - Wheelo (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/cool_shades.gif) |

Have you checked the injectors to see if they are actually opening and not closing? If so, then there's a decent chance that one of the output transistors in the ECU has failed. Get yourself a "noid" light from your FLAPS (for ~$5, or pay $35 for the "fuel injection tester" on evil-bay which is the same thing) and check to see if the ECU is telling the injectors to open and never close. If so, the ECU is the primary culprit; this is a known failure mode.
Where are you located? I have a D-jet tester that checks the ECU. If you're in the Bay Area, I may be able to dig it out and drag it to you... If you're elsewhere, Pelican should still have a D-jet tester they can rent out. Don't know the terms, though. Oh, and I would still check to make sure the CHT sensor is plugged in securely.... --DD |
