Do you get a spark? How about the igniter? http://www.markl.f9.co.uk/howto/electrical/igniter/igniter.htm  SignatureJim Yanik jyanik-at-kua.net the motor will turn over just wont crank it is a new distributer, fuel filter also i think it has something to do with the fuel because i do not always hear the fuel pump turn on and there is not click when you turn the key to phase 2 thank for your help what could cause this > the motor will turn over just wont crank it is a new distributer, fuel > filter also i think it has something to do with the fuel because i do > not always hear the fuel pump turn on and there is not click when you > turn the key to phase 2 thank for your help what could cause this "Turn over" and "crank" are the same thing. Once again,do you have a SPARK when the motor is cranked? You can check the fuel injectors to see if they are spraying out fuel. SignatureJim Yanik jyanik-at-kua.net how do you check the fuel injectors > how do you check the fuel injectors Pull the fuel rail and see if the injectors spray when the motor is cranked. Buy a Haynes manual($20 USD),there's a procedure in there.

Main relay. Take 20 minutes, yank it out and resolder it. >>> the motor will turn over just wont crank it is a new distributer, fuel >>> filter also i think it has something to do with the fuel because i do [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > Main relay. > Take 20 minutes, yank it out and resolder it. Well,he said he replaced the MR. If so,and re-soldering fixes it,then that would answer another poster here who advocated replacement over resoldering.(the "known good part" concept) SignatureJim Yanik jyanik-at-kua.net >>>> the motor will turn over just wont crank it is a new distributer, fuel >>>> filter also i think it has something to do with the fuel because i do [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > If so,and re-soldering fixes it,then that would answer another poster here > who advocated replacement over resoldering.(the "known good part" concept) Fixed my "won't start after baking in the sun all day" problem. Starts EVERY time now.

If you don't hear the fuel pump run for a couple seconds, smack the dash with your fist, on the left side of the steering wheel. If you then hear the pump run for a second, try starting again. If it now starts, and runs, it was (still) your main Relay). 'Curly' |
