Having problems with my frst. built it back up last weekend, started it up last night and it runs great one minute then rubbish the next!

It sounds like the fuel isn't getting through, but then it does the next minute?

Could it be the fuels regulator or maybe a loose wire??

It's not been moved for 11 months could it be just sh*t in the tank???

Any help appreitiated???
Cheers

I wouldn't mess about with the fueling. Could be the idle speed controler or the crank position sensor does the car smoke when driving?

 

With regards to the fuel, petrol seperates after a couple of months so if its been stood for a long time you could have crap in the fuel lines and the filter

 

I seen the throttle position sensor play up and make the car run bady you can get one of the failt code readers on ebay for around Ł17

 

yeah not a good idea using 11 month old fuel.

empty the tank and fuel lines

 

Thanks lads,

Have put a jerry cans worth of new petrol but might have to put some more in?

No the car does'nt smoke when driving, it also gets a bit better when the car warms up????

All i did was take the fuel pipe off to see if it was pumping to the injectors, your right don't want to mess with fueling.

I'll check these out tonight thanks lads, will keep you updated!!

After a long night of removing every little electrical connection, checking them and little blast of wd40 and re-connectiong. Removing and emptying the fuel tank/lines, Ł20's worth of optimax and crossed fingers she is running like a dream!!!

Thanks for all your help and suggestions

Bring on Mototrsport Developments for a set up!!
Bring on the Summer!!!

 

So what do you think it was?

 

Not to sure probably the petrol? i did all the work then turned her over and it worked.

But wont of done it any harm to check all the electical connections??

 

well i can say that my 7 month old fuel deteriorated, and it was at fault for it not starting it was sparking, and fueling, but it wasnt igniting

so putting new fuel back in will of certainly helped
