I bought a stock running project car with a bad tail shift transmission. I pulled the motor and replaced the transmission with a freshly rebuilt side shift unit from 914 LTD.
After the reinstall I am not able to get the car running again. Things that I have double checked -Fuel Pump runs and primes when the ignition gets switched on at the key -confirmed spark at the coil and at the plug with motor cranks -can hear the injectors pump once while the fuel pump is priming and when you step on the gas pedal once. -confirm that the timing is set correctly, that the points are gapped correctly. - the car will run briefly on starter fluid. Any thoughts? Maybe and ECU issue? Where do the injectors get the signal to fire? Thanks! |

From the FI ECU. It grounds one of the pins in the four-pin harness, which triggers the fuel pump relay, sending power to the pump.
