What am I missing? Turn the key and I can hear the fuel pump run then stop. Turn key to start and the engine cranks. Broke the lines in the engine bay. Crank the engine and no fuel comes out the hoses. Blocked line between pump and engine bay?
If I spray some start fluid in the air box the engine fires right up. This is my new project car. Just drove it home last week. |

Gauge showed about half tank when I drove it home. Yes, the car sat for 11+ years. I'm going to check the lines under the car at the fuel pump today.

QUOTE(steuspeed @ Sep 23 2020, 09:22 AM)  Gauge showed about half tank when I drove it home. Yes, the car sat for 11+ years. I'm going to check the lines under the car at the fuel pump today. Hopefully the tank was prepped before storage, and wasn't full of rust. If it was, particles and chunks might have settled onto the tank strainer or the fuel filter. (That's how my first fuel pump got ruined in my 914 project car.) |
