Hi all,

I have just rescued a couple of 1988 XR 4X4s, one of which was a recent runner?
The other has been sat for several years.

I have tried to get the recent runner going but not having much luck. I have the Haynes manual for guidance and found the fuel pump relay was missing and fitted a generic relay, which has got the fuel pump running. It would also seem the Injector relay is missing?

The engine turns over, I have a spark and it seems to try, but only with "start pilot"

I think the fault is in the injection system, but need to know where to start looking first.

I have done the usual things before trying to start the car, fresh fuel, oil and checked the water system, I also ensured the camshafts were well oiled before starting.

Any help and advice would be appreciated.

Cheers, thebarbs
