Starting Problem Sensor?
 
Yesterday my car started fine, then i go to start it today and it doesn't start. So i unflooded the car, changed the plugs and still nothing. I looked at the sensor check on my pfc and my Fuel sensor voltage is illuminated. The voltage reads 4.98... My question is, is that sensor bad, and if so what do i have to change. Could use some help here PLEASE!!!!

Bump, i need to get this car running..

importrx7 Oct 12, 2004 05:05 PM

Gonna try and unflood the car again, and clean the plugs. Going to use some ATF this time, doesn't that give the car compression and help it start??

i would suggest pull out the fuel pump and check the wiring.

are you getting any fuel pressure? is fuel getting to the engine?

Yah the plugs were covered in gas

Kept trying and got nothing, decided not to put atf in the car don't want to put that shit in my motor. Guess tomorrow i'm going to have to test the wires, then if they are good test the coils. How do u test the coils??

Maaan I'm having a similar problem, I'll be checking my fuel pump tomorrow and also spark to the plugs.

Let me know what you figure out

mad_7tist Oct 12, 2004 10:04 PM

see if you are getting any spark first at the plugs

importrx7 Oct 13, 2004 03:07 PM

Ran into a wall, i'm getting fuel cause the plugs are shoaked and my regualtor gauge went up, second i tested my wires and i got spark on every wire so i might as well not check the coils then any ideas. ECU???, or is she blown??

time to consider a leaking injector. any compression readings will be skewed because of the gas washing down the combustion chambers. have you tried push starting it that will always start a fluke flooded car. you have a fuel pressure gague on the car?

importrx7 Oct 13, 2004 08:21 PM

No i don't have a fuel pressure gauge, closest thing is my gauge on my fuel pressure regulator i think..

I thought about push starting it but i don't know if i could get it moving fast enough

importrx7 Oct 14, 2004 03:48 PM

Well i tried the stock ecu nothing, tried push starting it nothing, out of options that i can do. Stuck fuel injector??? How hard is it to check that??
