Finally got around to working on the 914 lately, got the 1.7 Djet motor fired up surprisingly easily with only static timing it. Put in new plugs, wires, cap, rotor, Pertronix, CHT, gaskets, fuel hoses, fuel filter, etc.
Anyways, to my problem. I jacked up the rear to tighten some things up and now that it's back on the ground again it won't restart. I figured the pump just needed to be cycled quite a few times to get the fuel pressure back up, but after 4 or 5 times of cycling the pump, I heard a very loud POP, almost like something blew up or a backfire. What could this be ? I was only cycling the fuel pump circuit on and off. I looked around everywhere and can find nothing, no leaking fuel, nothing burned or exploded into pieces. Still won't start, just hiss and pop occasionally now. Pump still turns on fine. I am getting spark, and the injectors are firing. Any ideas? |
