Car Forum / Pontiac / Pontiac Cars / July 200898 grand am no start condition
I swapped out an engine from a 2000 cavalier (2.4l 4cyl). I used all of th components from the 98 engine except the fuel rail. It seems like I am no getting fuel. Any idea why - Message posted using http://www.talkaboutautos.com/group/alt.autos.pontiac More information at http://www.talkaboutautos.com/faq.htm Does the pump run, any prssure at the rail, are the injectors pulsing, any spark? >I swapped out an engine from a 2000 cavalier (2.4l 4cyl).

I have spark, and the pump does run. It takes a while for the pressure t build up, and then and only then it will try to start. But it wont catch. It think that I might be loosing pressure but how do I check? There is n service port to put my gauge on and I don't want to splice into th pressue hose. Also I noticed that the smaller diameter hose (which assume would be the pressure hose) is empty when I disconnect it from th quick coupler. The larger diameter hose (return?) has gas in it. What i that trying to tell me - Message posted using http://www.talkaboutautos.com/group/alt.autos.pontiac More information at http://www.talkaboutautos.com/faq.htm A good fp tester has adapters to connect to the fuel filter to test pressure, the small line is the return line, for a proper diagnosis you need to get the fp tested, or take a chance and replace the pump.. > Hey, thanks for your reply. > [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > http://www.talkaboutautos.com/group/alt.autos.pontiac/ > More information at http://www.talkaboutautos.com/faq.html ----== Posted via Pronews.Com - Unlimited-Unrestricted-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.pronews.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! >100,000 Newsgroups ---= - Total Privacy via Encryption =--- |
