The starter engages? Have you checked for spark/fuel? Does the main relay click w/key to on?

How did you test for fuel? Have you tried deflooding the engine. Will it start briefly with the use of starter fluid. Maybe a compression test is in the offing.

Fuel pump works w/key to start and not to on.
A proper way to deflood the engine would be to remove a spark plug from each housing, pull an EGI fuse and turn the engine over to expel excess fuel. You would squirt 1 to 2 seconds of spray into the air intake duct cowl. A compression tester w/the schrader valve is a must. If you have a fuel cut switch it should be really easy to figure out if it is working properly or not. |
