starting problems
hi a mate has bought a ex rally group n spec escort cosworth
had a few little problems for mot etc that he was sorting
anyway it ran out of fuel and now won't start
it cranks over but won't start
the fuel pump kicks in no probs
but spark plugs aren't wet
somebody has said it needs the fuel regulator bleeding?
could this be true and if so how is it done ??
there is a in pipe and a out pipe on regulator also
the pressure adjustment screw
and another that looks like a blanking screw could this be bleedscrew
