75, 2.0, djet. Won't fire. Spark is good. A little starting fluid in the intake and it fires. Clearly a fuel problem. I'm not hearing the fuel pump. Shouldn't I hear it for a few seconds when first turning ignition on? I checked the fuse (#25 on the relay board) and it's good. I'll put a multimeter on the pump terminals to check for power next, but thought I'd throw this out there to the collective for any other input until I can get back to it. Grounds are also on the list. Or put power directly to the pump and see if it runs.

I had a dead spot in my relay board,it didn't show until I hooked it all up after cleaning it and resealing it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) ,I ended up pulling power from from an unfused supply for the pump and that worked,added 7.5amp fuse and it got me going until I got a replacement board from a member on here.
Recently I had had a non-running pump,found the wiring ok and pump ran with a direct feed,changed out pump relay and away it went...not for long,would work sometimes and not others. It finally stopped working till I swapped out the FI control relay and problem solved,2 relays in one day call me lucky...not (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) |
