So, is there some trick to this? I changed out the fuel pump and got a nice gas shower while doing so. Now that it is hooked up, I can't get it to start. I turned the key on and off many times to let the pump cycle. Now, the engine doesn't want to run. It does start up when I turn the key, but it only runs for about a second or two and then dies. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) I have tried this multiple times and I can't keep it running. I can hear the pump running for a second or two once the engine dies.
I know this isn't a diesel, but when my diesel tractor runs out of fuel, I have to bleed the injectors of all of the air before it will start. Do I have to do something like that? When I changed the pump, I let the gas lines drain out quite a bit, so is there air in those lines? Any suggestions? Warrenoliver |
