Right, been helping a friend with his ERST today. Got it all timed up and went to start it...nothing. Turning over but doesn't want to fire.

We've got spark, but i'm not sure about fuel. The fuel pump doesn't prime, yet when bridging the wires it makes noise but sounds a bit weak.
After turning it over for a couple of seconds there seems to be no pressure in the fuel lines??

Been faffing round with it for a few hours now and my brain is fried! so thought I would give up today and see what people might think it is.

cheers.

If your having to bridge the relay for the pump to work then the question is why? If this reuqires to be bridged over then is everything else electrical working as it should be?

If yes.
Check fuel pressure then going by what you have said.

Is the metering unit a known good working one, where did it come from?

Id start there and report back..
