Fuel or Fire Posted by tibbidoh [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: ANOTHER no start question, philbert, Thu, 9 Oct 2008 15:27:06 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
is what a mechanic once told me. Rather than start guessing first (for me) make sure you are getting fire after the car has quit running its interim amount that you mentioned. If so then get out your manual and start going through the fuel system first making sure that you have pressure.
ie fuel: Years ago I had a no start problem once so first I checked the plugs, had fire, then checked the fuel pressure and none existed. I was confused because I could hear the pump running, never the less it was the fuel pump because the impeller had failed.
ie fire: Recently I had a intermittent car dieing problem. So in a death cycle I checked for spark and none. Got out the manual and ohm meter and started checking components and eventually discovered that the previous owner of the car or mechanic had not properly grounded the engine.
Hope this helps
