Starting problem and stuff
Alrighty, I have a 87 TII, steetport, Microtech LT8, Walbro 255, stock 550's. This setup has ran fine for 2 years that I've had it. Monday I go to start her up, first off the battery was low, don't know what that was about, but I put the charger on it. Go to start her up again, turns over and over but no go. Tried a few more times before I try to unflood her, but she's not flooded.
It also recently came to my attention that the wetness under the UIM is most likely fuel. I have been driving it a while like that (I know ). I'm not gonna drive it until I fix the leak wether it's an injector O-ring or FPD.
Also lately I have been getting an intermittent RPM error on the Microtech. I have searched and understand that the CAS wire is getting possible interference from the spark plug wires.
Here is my question: What is the cause of the no start? Is it low fuel pressure because of the leak? Why did it do this all of the sudden when it's been leaking for a while? I don't think it's a big leak, I've never seen any fuel dripping anywhere.
It could be that none of these things are related, who knows... The way RX-7s are I could probably go start it up today and everything be fine.
