honda non starting problem. anyone?
my sisters honda smx (2.0 petrol automatic).has decided to play up after 2 years of trouble free motoring!
its been stood for a couple of days and was very low on fuel but when she went out to it it wouldnt start so i went round with a fuel can and put some fuel in...still nothing.
checked the plugs-getting a decent spark but bone dry
seem to be getting fuel up to the fuel rail but not through injectors.
at the injector connection im getting 12v at one side and on cranking a negative pulse.i havent had an injector out to see if they are in fact injecting yet,but the fact the plugs are dry suggests not.
any ideas?
getting dark and battery flat now so will have to attack it again tomorrow.
