When you turn key to on position can you here the fuel pump prime and a relay click off?

**beeza** · 25-01-2008 07:59 PM

Is that the PGMFI relay? If it is it definately does.

I was thinking Main Fuel relay.

I don't know if my mechanic checked for that or not,I will have to ask him.I didn't.But both him and and another mechanic didn't seem to think it was a fuel problem.... but definately will check that out.

Its spark IMHO, if aerostart wont work I would be checking spark. You checked for trouble codes yet?

I think it's not PGMFI relay because you have replaced with the new one. When you said all fuses are working OK are you mean both under hood and under dash. As I know there are two fuses cut off PGMFI relay, one under hood and one under dash.

Definately got spark.Yes checked for trouble codes using a scan tool and by manually shorting it.

what angle is the dizzy sitting at on the head ?
try retarding it all the way (loosen the 3 x 12mm bolts and turn the dizzy towards the FRONT of the car) and see if that gets it started. Happened to me once.

That's a great idea.It's advanced a little.
I won't be able to try until tuesday,that's when my mechanic will be back after the long weekend.Cheers ben.
