hey guys,
Got a huge problem, just recently converted my carby eg to efi and dropped in the engine. everything seems fine to mr though when I try to crank it it doesn't want to turn over, even though it cranks.
I've ripped all the the ego conversion parts from the donor car efi tank, ego fuel lines and replaced all the wiring harness's. Note that this was ripped put from another concerted efi eg.

When I turn on the ignition I can't seem to hear the fuel pump prime, disconnected the line from the fuel filter and no fuel coming out. Any suggestions? I'm pretty sure I wired everything correctly.

Any ideas this is really giving me the shits

Thanks advance

is the gb grounding cable on properly?

if the fuel pump isn't priming then it could be busted.

gearbox there's a massive grounding wire on it that goes too the chassis I forgot that last time and car wouldn't start but if it cranks then nvm this lol i wasn't reading properly.

Yea with the fuel pump same thing happened to my car. It was working previously but after conversion it wouldn't prime, after that I had to swap it over and then it works no idea what happened during the time we didn't tamper with it maybe it's just fragile.

maybe try chuck in one of your mates fuel pumps quick swap over see if it works then.

Before you go changing fuel pump, use a multimeter and check if there is 12v to the fuel pump on acc.

Before changing anything check two things.
spark and fuel.
1- take the fuel line and see if it's getting fuel
2- check if you getting sparks.
let some one turn on the ignition and listen to the fuel pump if it's start working. Main replay should be connected to the right side under dash.

check for power at the fuel pump first.

Also check under-dash fuses. I think it's number 18 -7.5amp.
Check all fuses if needed.

All sorted turned out to be the main relay
